Publisher's summary

All it takes is one cold lie to ruin the recipe for a perfect love....

Five years ago, Abi was in culinary school and dreaming of working at Adley’s, a Michelin-starred restaurant, and for its equally delectable owner. Instead, she’s alone, broke, and out of friendly couches to sleep on. Her only direction…rock bottom.

Abi’s in a mess, but it’s her mess, and she plans to fix it. She just doesn’t know how—until, huddled and shivering in a doorway across from Adley’s, she sees the beautiful owner drop her purse. And returning it reaps an unexpected reward.

Behind Victoria Adley’s cool public persona and power suits is a woman in turmoil, a victim of tabloid lies that have thrown her for a loop. Accused of having an affair with a female employee, her family has fallen apart, and her business is suffering.

When Victoria offers temporary shelter to the homeless young woman who found and returned her dropped purse, she is irresistibly drawn to Abi’s kindness and warmth. Their instant attraction melts into something more, but they can’t pretend the real world doesn’t exist. While all the ingredients for a lasting love are there, putting them together isn’t so easy.

Because Victoria isn’t out.

And Abi can’t live a lie.

A Life Lived Well

The dynamics between Victoria and Abby are so beautiful that it draws you into their story. You find yourself rooting for them and their triumphs. Darrin should have had a good throttling but Victoria has a daughter with him and I can understand her way of handling things. The sweetest revenge is a life well lived. Bravo, Ms Tereze, Bravo!!

Amazing!!!!

This book was simply amazing. There are a lot of ups and downs that keep the book very interesting. The narration was great too! I will definitely listen to this book again!!!

Very In Depth Characters With A Well Written Lesbian Romance

Really enjoyed the two main characters of this love story. The storyline was complex and idealistic, that keeps the audience engaged as the story evolves. The narrator was superb and very easy to listen to with a rapturous tone.

~10/10 Recommend!~

This is the first book I’ve listened to by Melissa Tereze and it was AMAZING! Every chance I got I was like Alexa resume my book!😅

Emma Griffiths did an excellent job with her narration!

Everything was spectacular and I’m so glad I got to experience this novel!

l love the way the two main characters metet

I've been a fan of Melissa Tereze. She has never disappointed me. Her characters are well developed. The plot is always expanding so we want to read more to see what it's next and to she how any conflict is solved. She can be delightful because you think some times think you know how things will turn out and then it takes a turn.

Angsty and steamy

It never fails, Melissa Tereze books always have me talking out loud with advice to the characters lol, begging them to just talk to each other when miscommunications arise. She is adept at creating angst and tension and then blessing us with hot and steamy scenes to make up for the roller coaster of emotions she evokes! Good story and loved the narration!

Sexy

the story and the characters made me smile. very well written happily ever after story.

Worth every second . Could hardly put it down .

Eagerly anticipated the delivery of the next relationship phase never disappointed. Definitely a good feel outcome.

Behind Her Eyes

Great story, great narrators, it kept me in the story and trying to figure out the story.

it was good..

it was good drama was kinda like yo tf talk this out more please. They could've gotten over the "big incident" if they sat down and talked for like 10 mins. Though I'm a sucker for drama so I didn't really mind....
(spoiler)....
especially when they got together in the end. A lot of cringe Romance ya know the I love you muah stick. Again I'm fine with that. Just pointing it out if no one is really into it. They had sex scenes. Most of them go into details. I pretty sure like 1 just faded into black. Don't really remember kinda turned my brain off after the 2nd hot scene. I don't mind them as well of course. it was great just moved on after reading these types of books. just know they have some steamy scenes.... The book is good doesn't really stand out as must but I enjoyed it. give it a go if ya have sum hrs to kill.
