Beschreibung des Verlags
Tantalizing. Hot. Mouthwateringly delicious. The pizzas at the Portland restaurant chain Shane Maresca is secretly priming for takeover are all that and more. Unfortunately for him, so is Gabriella Grimani, the business owner’s daughter. He had no idea who she was when they had their first X-rated one night stand. Now she’s all he can think about. For someone whose career hinges on ruthlessness, that’s a slice of disaster.
Tough, take-charge Gabby intends to put her family’s restaurants back in the black, and that means no distractions. But somehow Shane keeps getting to the part of her that no one else sees—enticing her to lean on him. To trust him. That could be the biggest mistake Gabby and her business ever made…or a recipe for something truly spectacular.
"Plumley's lovably flawed protagonists are charmers, and their story will win hearts." —Publishers Weekly
PUBLISHERS WEEKLY
Plumley pairs up a corporate raider and a pizza chef in this middling prequel to Together for Christmas. Gabriella Grimani is out to save her family's struggling restaurant, Campania; Shane Maresca is on a stealthy mission to buy it. After the two meet at a local bar and share a steamy evening, Shane applies for a job at Campania to do a little reconnaissance. He doesn't expect to fall in love with the plucky chef, who's got something to prove to her staff, to her family, and most of all to herself. As minor crises including a broken oven and a destroyed tomato shipment start to look like sabotage, Shane wonders whether there's another "fixer" trying to get the Grimanis to sell. But Shane has a bigger fear: that once Gabriella discovers his agenda, she'll ditch him. Plumley's lovably flawed protagonists are charmers, and their story will win hearts despite a somewhat predictable ending.
