Sous chef Cat Connors has spent a lifetime feeling like a stale cracker on a plate of fancy hors d'oeuvres among her stepfamily. But when she travels from San Francisco to the sunny Isle of Capri, she's determined to finally shed her dowdy image and spice up her life. She has big plans for her future as a chef. Those plans don't include a yummy Italian with a mouth-watering body and a smile that melts her insides like gelato under the hot Capri sun. When Alex Viteli retreats to his villa on Capri to escape the notoriety and legal troubles brought on by his family, the last thing he needs is a beautiful, tempting dish of a woman. Alex may be the scion of a wealthy Italian family, but that won't matter if he can't cook up a scheme to clear his father's name and keep himself out of prison. Though they fit together like strawberries and chocolate, Cat and Alex may not have time for more than a quick bite of romance. Cat's future is in San Francisco. Alex can't leave Italy. But the sultry Capri nights might tempt them both to savor just one more sweet taste of love.
