Reader Question – The book where she always donates her cooking to a pantry and he buys her a kitchen space…

By Leave a Comment

Ada needs our book help! Oh this one sounds absolutely wonderful!!!!

She asks:

Would love help finding a book I’m desperate to reread!

The FMC makes food for the hungry, donates to a pantry or something like that. They adore her and are always thrilled when she shows up with her goodies. She doesn’t sell them because she doesn’t need the money.

The MMC buys her a kitchen space for her so he knows she’s always in best and safe place. She doesn’t know that he had a tough childhood and used to get food from a soup kitchen when he was younger, so admires her for it. read more

Darshan needs our book help! Ohhhhh that ribbon scene she describes sounds sooooo gooooood!!!

She asks:

RE: SOS Please help me find a book

Hi Maryse!

I’am trying to find a spicy/romance m/f book that I only know the plot of. Here’s what I remember:

The male lead is a hairdresser and a biker, with pink hair (he dyes it).
The female lead is a baker—she’s really good at making cookies and possibly sells them from her own shop.

There’s a steamy scene where he dyes her hair purple, styles it with silk ribbons, and then uses those ribbons as a blindfold during an intimate moment. read more

Reader Question -The book where he’s a chef & his fiancé is a flight attendant but he ends up falling for the heroine…

Renee needs our book help! It’s short and sweet but the detail is specific so hopefully it sparks someone’s memory!

She asks:

I read a book several years ago, and I cannot find it anywhere!

I believe the main male character is a chef or restaurant owner. He is with a flight attendant girlfriend or fiancée but falls in love with the FMC.

Wondering if anyone else recalls this plot!

Anyone have a guess?

Janet is looking for this one! And P.S. I LOVE chef/foodie romance BIG TIME. Short on detail, but I think it’s good enough to spark someone’s memory *fingers crossed*

She asks:

Help me. I am looking for a book that I read years back.

It’s about a chef who meets a guy on a train. Her work hours are crazy and he gives her access to his house.

He has a penthouse with a pool,  there’s a really steamy scene there. He loves caramel candy and she dyes her hair every other time. read more

About book #1:

Conceited, unattainable, and downright delicious, renowned Michelin-starred chef Ambrose Casablancas has one passion in life—food. Women are a distraction, and he doesn’t do those. Especially Cal Litvin, his baby sister’s best friend. Her entire existence is a complication; she’s awkward, eccentric, infuriating… And, much to his chagrin, hotter than his kitchen. read more
