Will they discover that love is the missing ingredient, or will the secrets between them spoil the sweetest second chance of all?

After a change in her employment status, Jamie Bowlin needs to find a new path.

When the king’s assistant calls and offers her a job inside the Nevive palace, Jamie accepts. Turns out she should have asked questions because now she’s working for her late best friend's husband. He’s a painful reminder of everything she's lost.

Yet when life tastes bitter, Jamie finds comfort in a witty online friend who always knows what to say. Unaware that the person behind the screen is the very man testing her patience in real life, she starts to wonder if her own happily-ever-after might still be possible.

Palace chef Orlin Tarpen has a recipe for everything—except moving on.

Since losing his wife, he's poured his heart into his cooking and what little family he has left. With the most important culinary competition of his career simmering on the horizon, Orlin has no time for distraction, especially Jamie Bowlin. Their constant disagreements make one thing clear: they couldn't be more wrong for each other.

When long-buried feelings and unexpected secrets come to a boil, they’ll have to decide whether to walk away—or discover that love might be the missing ingredient they’ve been searching for all along.
