About This Book

Love small town, New Zealand romance with an unforgettable cast of characters?
Each book in the Due South series contains a sizzling, sexy love story set on an unspoilt, wild island in New Zealand.
Meet Shaye and Del...
Take one sassy Harland girl...
Shaye Harland, sous chef de-awesome, desperately wants the role of Due South's head chef. Though a little out of her depth, she can totally cope with the extra demands if she can resist her future brother-in-law when he muscles in on her kitchen. The Hollywood wannabe is nothing but a troublesome distraction and he fries her sex-ometer to a crisp. But as far as romance? Forget it. Love, when she finds Mr. Perfect, will be as sweet as her to-die-for cookies.

Add a bad-boy from LA...
Del Westlake swore he'd never again set foot on the island he calls the "ass end of New Zealand." With his reputation as a sous chef in one of LA's hottest restaurants trashed, and his estranged father's restaurant needing a head chef, Del wants nothing more than to go in, get the job done, and get out. Except his feisty second-in-command carves herself a spot in his heart and completely incinerates his plans.

Watch the sparks fly as they burn it up in the kitchen...
Winning a spot on a TV reality show is just what Del needs to jumpstart his career back in the States. Nothing can get in the way of him winning-not even the woman whose trust he'd destroy if she discovers his secrets. But with a film crew capturing the explosive kitchen chemistry between them, will his bad-boy ways rear up and ruin his shot at becoming Shaye's Mr. Perfect?

Fresh...Seductive...Heart-warming...
Everything you want in a contemporary romance-plus enough steaminess to make your toes curl!

Intended for mature 18+ aged readers.
