In which two competitive culinary school students get under each other's skin in all the right ways. 

Summer has dreamed of going to culinary school for as long as she can remember, a dream she's struggled to convince her reluctant father into giving her the chance to chase. But when an arrogant, honey-eyed boy who might as well be the devil waltzes in on her first day, Summer soon realizes he may just be her undoing.

Ashton has dreamed of getting out of Cloverbrook for as long as he can remember, and attending the local culinary school could be his one shot at a future he's determined to have. Crossing paths with a hazel-eyed spitfire of a girl was not part of his escape plan.

Under each other's skin in seconds, a sour first impression has never left such a sweet aftertaste.

AUTHOR'S NOTE

Summer and Ashton's story is far from perfect. Love and hate make people do crazy things, right? These two are no exception. If you're into a slow burn enemies-to-lovers story full of romance and conflict, sweet treats, daddy issues, brooding boys, fiery girls, sexual tension and just plain old tension - then keep on reading.

And while there's heartbreak, I promise there's more ups than downs! Those sad moments only make the happy ones sweeter. 

🚨 This story has mature themes and a few topics that might be sensitive to some. Strong language, violence, eating disorders, and sexual content. These aren't all in every chapter, but they are present.

✏️ As a writer in practice, I love hearing from my readers, so remember to vote & comment on the chapters. Your feedback means a lot to me!
