A snowstorm, a scandal, and a secret identity blow into a writing retreat\u2026 <\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

Disheartened romance author Meade Godwin has two goals: finish the last book of his contract then break free of his greedy ex-wife\u2019s financial demands. He doesn\u2019t need a cranky injured chef with a penchant for sharp knives distracting him. Especially one who is a fan of the pen name he plans to retire.<\/p>\n

Justine Macko may have lost her restaurant due to her former fianc\u00e9\u2019s shady business schemes, but cooking at a writing retreat in the remote Adirondack Mountains is exactly what she needs to reclaim her kitchen mojo. She\u2019s not going to let a little bad weather or a secretive writer with questionable taste buds stop her.<\/p>\n

Until her past tracks her down.<\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n
