Women are a distraction, and he doesn't do those. Especially Cal Litvin, his baby sister's best friend. Her entire existence is a complication; she's awkward, eccentric, infuriating... And, much to his chagrin, hotter than his kitchen. Ambrose has a lot on his plate: a new restaurant to open, a multimillion-dollar property deal to execute, and a violent stalker to tame. Then Cal shows up at his doorstep, looking for both a job and salvation after their messy goodbye. His resolve, like his patience, is ebbing each day she works at his restaurant. Because Cal is no longer a doe-eyed girl. Now? She's the woman he'll do anything to conquer."--Page 4 of cover. 0aCooksvFiction. 0aRestaurateursvFiction. 0aStalkersvFiction. 0aMan-woman relationshipsvFiction. 0aRomance fiction. 7aRomance fiction.2lcgft1 aShen, L.
