A Recipe for Romance

What happens when you mix one grumpy chef with one hopeful influencer? A recipe for heartwarming surprises…

THE DELICIOUSLY FUN AND SWEET ROMANCE FROM M.E. GIGGLE
Kelsi Martinez might have millions of followers, but what she really craves is respect as a chef. Landing a spot on Culinary Crescendo could be her chance to prove she’s got more than just a pretty face and a good camera angle. She’s ready to show her skills, even if it means facing the scorn of the show’s toughest judge.
Drew Carlson used to be the culinary world’s golden boy—until the pressure left him burned out and wondering where his passion went. Now, he’s a grumpy judge, just trying to survive each episode. The last thing he needs is a pink-haired influencer distracting him in his kitchen with her bright smiles and boundless energy.
But when Kelsi’s positivity starts to chip away at Drew’s defenses, and Drew’s knowledge pushes Kelsi to new heights, they find themselves becoming the unlikeliest of teammates. The kitchen might be hot, but their growing connection is what truly starts to simmer.
As the competition heats up, Kelsi and Drew realize they just might be the missing ingredient in each other’s lives. Can they trust each other enough to blend their lives together, or will their fears hold them back?
A RECIPE FOR ROMANCE is a slow-burn, sweet-and-slightly-spicy love story that blends humor, heart, and second chances. Perfect for fans of Emily Henry, Christina Lauren, and Ali Hazelwood, this fun romance will leave you rooting for love and craving something delicious.
