Customer Reviews

A great addition to the Hotel Marchand series.-

I really enjoyed Melanie's story. She is the youngest of the sisters and has always felt inferior but seems to be coming into her own when she becomes a chef at the family restaurant. Robert LeSouer is the polar opposite of Melanie and is hesitant to try new things. Naturally they strike sparks off of each other. The reason I didn't give this a five is because my copy was so poorly edited it was distracting. I find this problem more and more often with books lately. Does anyone review them?

delicious contemporary romance

At Chez Remy, the four-star restaurant inside of the French Quarter Hotel Marchand, the cooking war between Sous Chef Melanie Marchand and Executive Chef Robert LeSoeur is hot and spicy with neither willing to budge an inch except when it comes to the palate of the guests. Their gender battle hides the attraction each feels for the other as neither wants to explore their lustful thoughts as each assumes it is one sided and fears giving an edge to their adversary. However, Melanie reconsiders her strategy when she realizes that Robert actually wants her. She decides to try honey instead of vinegar; red hot pepper instead of cold cucumber. However, she wants only a one time fling as she vowed to never have any permanent commitment with a male since her first marriage as a teen was rotten and he has secrets that make him agree. So why do this pair keep wanting more dessert? Readers will like it hot with this delicious Hotel Marchand contemporary romance. Melanie and Robert are a fiery passionate pair who love preparing mouth watering meals almost as much as they love one another. Fans will enjoy this gender war in the kitchen that is resolved in the bedroom. Harriet Klausner
