COOKING UP A STORM by Ashley Ladd
Blurb:
Brooks and Rique desperately want to win a coveted chef’s job
offered by an eccentric millionaire in paradise. Even more, Rique desperately
wants to stay alive.
Brooks and Rique desperately want to win the head chef’s
position offered by an eccentric millionaire Jonah Verleun on his beautiful,
private but peculiar island that includes a zoo full of exotic animals, an
amusement park and a monster shark tank beneath Jonah’s bedroom floor. While
Brooks wants the job to escape his heartache and the lover who thwarted him,
Rique is hiding from the mob, hoping to live long enough to pay them off with
the prize winnings. Fierce competitors, they cook up a storm in a series of
cooking challenges while trying to turn down the heat on their intense
attraction. When a hurricane strikes the island, the storm Rique has been
cooking up explodes, and no heart—or body—is safe.
Excerpt:
They ran, hunched
over, zigging and zagging as bullets flew around them. Rique damned himself for
putting Brooks in this mess. He wondered if the mob held the others prisoner
and that’s why they didn’t answer the door.
He
turned the first corner they came upon and then the next. He stopped dead and the
air left his lungs. A moment later Brooks ran into his back almost knocking him
over. He swayed dangerously but managed to stay upright and spread his arms
wide to keep Brooks from stumbling forward.
He couldn’t believe
his eyes. One of Jonah’s tigers lay in their path crouching low, baring his
teeth, and eying them as if they were dinner.
