Savoring the Chef

Will secrets destroy them or ignite the love of a lifetime?

Lionel Carrington-Bowles, wealthy gentleman with a reputation for scandalous behavior and even more scandalous friends, is on every ton hostess’s invitation list. He is devilishly handsome, delightfully charming, and the sort of man who dances with all of the ladies, even the wallflowers. When the journal in which he and his friends have entered their sensual exploits since their days at Cambridge disappears, he has far more reason than his three friends to track down his pages and destroy them. Should Society discover his preference in bed partners, his life would move from scandalous to dangerous. When he discovers a cook at one of London’s most exclusive private clubs has his pages, he is determined to do whatever he must to retrieve them.

Nathaniel Charpentier arrived in London at sixteen with a bit of money, a small dog, a letter of recommendation, and some unique kitchen skills. Ten years later he is the chef de cuisine for Club Ambrosios, one of London’s most exclusive private clubs. His talents have made the club a huge success and has secured his future for the first time in his life. He derives his latest inspiration from the purchase of a sensual journal from London’s leading pornographer. His own amorous adventures, however, have taken a sinister turn with the arrival of a series of threatening notes. He fears his past has come to London to find him.

The spark between Lionel and Nathaniel is a roaring fire from the moment they meet and gives both good reason to keep their secrets for fear of ending the consuming passion between them. Once revealed, their secrets may destroy them or may be the very reason to take a chance on the love of a lifetime.
