Last night I made out with a gorgeous woman who made me feel things I haven’t felt in years. Today I learned she’s the new executive chef at my restaurant. AKA my new boss.

Yep, that’s the hot mess I’m in at the moment.

Dating a co-worker is asking for trouble. And while I might be up for the risk, Natalie has her own set of complications. She’s a single mom focused on helping her little girl adjust to life in the big city.

And I respect that. I do.
I try my best to resist....

But the more time I spend with her--and her incredible daughter--the more I think this could be something worth fighting for.

Especially after we spend another night together, then another and another...

But will she ever let me into her life?
Or is this seduction doomed from the start?
