Henry Beck thought he’d already faced the toughest kitchen challenge of his life. After all, what could top sweating it out as a Navy cook on a submarine? But when he learns his competition for the title of Rising Star Chef is the sweet hippie girl he married…and left…ten years ago, the heat is on.
Now Beck and Skye Gladwell are going head to head in the finals…and sparking up old flames every time they touch. But Skye wants more than a win over the man who abandoned her when she needed him most—she wants a divorce! Then her sexy almost-ex makes a deliciously dangerous proposition. He’ll give in to her demands, but if his team wins the RSC, he has a demand of his own…one last taste of the only woman he ever loved.
For the year 2012, one of my goals is to read this series. I just finished reading Scrumptious by Amanda Usen and I really enjoyed the behind the scenes action in the kitchen so I’m on the look out for more of that kind of action. I love romances that steam up the kitchen and so it’s weird that I haven’t read anything by Louisa Edwards yet. I’m going to change that this year though. Next month, really because I need to read both the first and second book before this book comes out on March 27, 2012. If you’re a fan of this series and want more, you have a few short months of waiting before you can dig in.
Has anyone read this series? Did you guys like it or no? How hot are the covers? This is why I’m buying them in print and not in ebook. Those covers just need to be on my bookshelves at home.
This book is available from St. Martin’s Press. You can pre-order it here or here in e-format.
Yes I have read them and love them. Looking f/d to this one.

I’ve read the first one and liked it. I am looking forward to finding out more about Beck, but first I need to read the second book! It is waiting on my bookshelf for me at the moment!
The covers certainly don’t hurt the enjoyment!
@Pat L. I’ve gone to the bookstore three different times but they haven’t had the first one on the shelves, I finally just ordered it online and I’m waiting for it to come in the mail. I’m looking forward to reading this one and I’m hopeful that I’ll have them all read by the time this book comes out.
@Marg: Yay, I’m glad you liked the first one. I can’t wait to read it!
OMG you lucky girl to have her backlist to read. You will love her books. Just One Taste remains one of my faves ever but read them in order. The build-up between the secondary characters is so worth it all. Enjoying Some Like It Hot right now.
