Delicious Deception: A Small Town, Hot Chef, Workplace Romance Suspense Novel

Emily Kate Boudreaux runs a restaurant located on a bayou in Texas, because it's what her family expects of her. She'd rather pursue her dream of being an artist.

Then sexy chef Connor Rikeland walks into her life and turns it upside down. Soon, Emily Kate's restaurant is a roaring success, she has time to paint to her heart's content, there's a hunky guy warming her bed, and she's having visions of happily ever after.

Connor Rikeland is used to women throwing themselves at him, and he's been known to use relationships as a bargaining chip in his climb up the ladder. He wants a culinary career in the spotlight-and Cajun cooking isn't his ticket to fame even if Emily Kate is unlike anyone he's ever met.

Not to mention Connor has a few secrets that have put him on the wrong side of her brother's FBI case.

When hints of just why Connor is hanging out in a backwoods town begin to surface, Emily Kate must decide what's real, what's a lie, and what's worth risking her heart over. Because deception or not, life with Connor is delicious.
