Love Al Dente: A Saucy Italian Romance, by Jenna Lo Bianco – Alessio is a pedantic, uptight former chef of a renowned Australian restaurant who has vowed to never set foot in a commercial kitchen again!
Francesca is a passionate free-spirited Italian cook, who lives and breathes pasta, and happens to be in desperate need of a knight in shining chef whites.
A centuries-old pasta battle.
A little white lie.
And a whole lot of chemistry.
Will they be able to handle the heat in the kitchen?
Or will it be a recipe for disaster?
Combine an ideal location with a large portion of ambition, plus a soupcon of hope for romance! Will Alessio and Francesca’s liaison remain simmering on the back burner, or will it boil over with passion?
A deliciously good read!
