Death breaks you in ways you never thought possible while grief swallows you whole. After losing my husband I've been trapped in emotional limbo, a place I don't think I'll ever be able to escape. Not even the British actor and heartthrob, Ian James, will be able to thaw my frozen heart...at least that's what I thought.Being his personal chef is merely a short-term job while he's working on location in Virginia. But cooking for him five days a week becomes more personal when a mutual attraction starts to burn between us.I'm hopelessly drawn to Ian and being with him makes it possible for me to breathe again. But I'm wary of the self-proclaimed womanizer who is far too charming and handsome for his own good.With me a grieving widow, and Ian struggling with his own demons, there are too many variables involved for us to have a future together. But I can't stay away from him, and I'm afraid falling for a player might just shatter my already broken heart.
