Official synopsis Publisher
When a girl bites off more than she can chew…
Laine barely has enough time for herself, much less for romance. But she’s always hungry for more projects — so she signs up to teach a cooking class at her local community center. As it turns out, the guy co-teaching the class with her, Seth, is not just cute, but downright delicious! When Seth offers her a waitressing job at his family’s restaurant, Hype, Laine can’t resist.
Just as Seth finally warms up to Laine, she finds out that Callie, another waitress at Hype, is cooking up a plan to steal Seth for herself. But tensions really reach their boiling point when Laine’s restaurant critic mother writes a scathing review of Hype! Will Laine have to put love on the back burner “again”?
