Extended description

Lily Cavanaugh did it the hard way. She'd apprenticed under Master Chef Evan Taylor until he threw one temper tantrum too many.
She was madly in love with him but so was every other woman who worked for him. So, she walked away, built her own restaurant and her reputation.
Then Evan and the director of his new TV show, Dylan Bryant, walk into her restaurant to offer her an intriguing proposition and new possibilities, not just with Evan but with Dylan as well. When Evan's past comes back to haunt them, though, it puts them all their lives in danger.

This was definitely a hot, little number. One thing that threw me for a loop was that nobody gave a second thought to the fact that they would be in a menage relationship. Normally with just about every menage I've read -- unless it's futuristic or PNR or fantasy -- someone thinks about the fact that menage isn't generally accepted, especially in holier-than-thou America. But nobody thought anything! Even when the three went out in public -- and two of them were celebrities -- some eyebrows raised, but nothing other than that. The other thing that threw me for a loop was that within hours (minutes?) of approaching Lily about the cooking show, Evan and Dylan are both banging her with no condoms and no discussion of whether she's on the pill. But it was hot banging. All the way through. And the suspense was interesting. Evan's temper pissed me off a couple of times, but I thought it was great how Lily would always stand up to him. I got it on sale. Even not on sale, it would have been a good buy.

This was my first introduction into reviewing an erotic book. Boy what an introduction it was! It was sort of Hell's Kitchen meets Kitchen Nightmares with a whole load of sauce added.

That being said, all the steamy scenes (and wow were they steamy!) were very tastefully done. I never felt they were gratuitous and they fitted in with the story.

I would be interested to read more from this author as I feel she writes from a woman's point of view...for women. A classy novel that I very much enjoyed.

V. J. Devereaux (Valerie Douglas) really turns up the heat in this book! The characters blend together like a well made sauce. Good mix of erotica and mystery/suspense.

I really enjoyed this book. Well written. The author did a good job with developing the characters and the "mystery" plot. Also, it was so HOT I think my eyebrows got scorched! LOL
