1. Dishing up Romance
Cassie Pirelli is at it again in her ongoing saga of denial. Past mistakes with romance have left her scarred. But she’s banking on a change! Those scars are minor compared to the ones she now faces: losing a job, searching for a new career, giving up the apartment she so loves in the Village, and having to listen to Mama’s ongoing nagfest about marriage and grandbabies.
But fate didn’t get the memo that she’s focusing on her career, and neither did Papa, who’s joined forces with Mama. Despite their attempts, Cassie holds strong to her conviction to pursue professional success over a romantic relationship–that is, until the arrival of Mr. Rock-hard-chest Contractor Guy, Josh Benson, who could throw her plans right down the commercial garbage disposal.
In her new career as a chef, Cassie devises thirty recipes she happily shares. But will these recipes test her resolve and lure her into a world of love?
2. One Menu at a Time
Mix one part job seeker, one part gourmet chef, and one part frazzled guardian, and the result is Jamie, one very stressed-out gal. Jamie dons the apron of a personal chef, but when her sweating in the kitchen fails to bring results to her bank account, she’s back to square one.
Then her matchmaking sister Renee comes to the rescue with the perfect solution. What about the sexy NASCAR driver who is looking for a private chef and who just so happens to be the brother to one of Renee’s best friends? At first Jamie does not see beyond Chase’s charming demeanor—he seems to collect women like she collects recipes. But when Jamie discovers they have more in common than she thought, will she allow Chase to capture her heart?
3. Catering to Love
Gabrielle Johnson tests more than new recipes after her parents use their home as collateral to finance her dream restaurant. The Inn at Carters’ Mill in New Hope, Pennsylvania, is just a half-day’s drive but a world away from her failed catering business in New York. Nell and John Carter are retiring and want to sell but not to their moody sous-chef, who wanted them to carry the loan for him. Instead, they carry it for Gabi.
Gabi is thrilled to leave behind her transitional job teaching cooking classes. Hanging out with Cassie and Jamie, her two best friends, has been fun, but she misses the hustle of restaurant life. Carters’ sous-chef, Corey Edwards, is living that life but is mired in bitterness he can’t escape.
When Gabi meets Corey, sparks fly. But the only thing he can remember is his failed restaurant—and the woman he blames for it—and he snarls. Gabi gets busy working with her young staff: Leslie on pastry, Joey on meats, and Steven on the fish grill. And Corey? She waits him out. He’s a pro, and she needs him. And, well, there’s that attraction thing.
Stephanie, clerk at a local motel, turns into a valued friend. She even works the grand opening Gabi holds to draw local customers she needs to pay her rising bills. A big success, it also sharpens Gabi’s ideas for the new menu she is counting on to establish her restaurant’s reputation as the local landmark.
When Corey spills a bit of his past, they have way more than a truce. But then, inexplicably, he picks a fight with her and quits! She is devastated. As pressure mounts to launch the new menu, Gabi tests the strength of her relationships. Her New York rescue squad, those fabulous best friends, have the skills—and the loving humor—to save the day, but is that the best she can expect?
