A Sizzling Modern Romance
Turning Up the Heat
If you can’t take the heat, get out of his kitchen.
Kelsey Rankin has worked for years to earn her reputation as one of the best writers at California’s top food-and-wine journal. She’s left her rural roots in wine country and moved to the city to pursue her dreams.
Then a work trip back home to cover the wine harvest puts her right in the path of Chef Oskar Olson, an internationally recognized chef and the newest resident of her hometown.
Oskar knew he wanted a break from big-city life when he moved to a small town. He wants to make his restaurant one that people talk about, and a review from Kelsey’s magazine might push his restaurant into the spotlight.
One explosive night could change everything for these two culinary hotshots and make them question everything they think they want.
Turning Up the Heat is a steamy, stand-alone romance for lovers of sizzling chemistry, mouthwatering food, and sweet happily-ever-afters.
A sweet and spicy contemporary romance between a food writer and a chef. I love Hunter’s dialogue style with lots of banter and comedy. Low-angst story with lots of steam in the bedroom and the kitchen.

I have not enjoyed a contemporary romance quite like Lizzy Hunter’s Turning Up the Heat in a long time. The word that comes immediately to mind when writing about this book is this: satisfying. Oh, so satisfying!
