Julien Armand lives for fire, knives, and flawless plates. The youngest French chef to claim a Michelin star, his kitchen is both temple and battlefield every dish executed with precision, every service carried like a performance. Nothing rattles him. Until Amelia Moreau walks through his doors with a pen sharp enough to cut deeper than any blade.

Amelia built her name on brutal honesty. Critics fear her reviews, and she doesn’t mind. But she doesn’t expect to be pulled into Julien’s world of velvet sauces, relentless discipline, and storm-gray eyes that promise both trouble and temptation.

Their first meeting sparks a clash. Their second becomes a dare: a secret dinner neither of them can forget. What begins as ego and rivalry shifts into something riskier, an attraction that threatens reputations on both sides of the plate.

Chef and critic. Fire and ice. Fame and careers dangle in the balance, but passion doesn’t care about rules.

In a city where every bite can seduce and every word can wound, how long can they resist the heat before it devours them both?
