Gifted Chef

Who's the handsome chef that has San Francisco's elite craving more than just his cuisine?
Wait... is this the same man who thinks love is off the menu?

Stumbling into his restaurant was an accident, but locking eyes with Mike? Electric.
He's a culinary genius, commanding his kitchen like a king and his knives like a samurai.
And me? I'm the small-town author who apparently knows how to stir more than just his sauce.

But hold on.

I'm in San Francisco for book signings, not heart entanglements.
Yet, the way he presents each dish — like an artist revealing his masterpiece — has me rethinking my priorities.

He's cooked up a storm in my life, but can he serve a dish called 'forever'?
Or is this just a taste of a love story destined to remain unfinished?
