Valentina Romano,
a world-famous celebrity chef, is hired to prepare the meal and signature cake for the wedding of Dro Reyes and his fiancée, Lola Samuels. But days before the celebration, she and her four specialty chefs are flat on their backs in an Italian hospital after falling eerily ill.
Dr. Marcus Kyncade, known for his advances in neurotoxins, is the attending physician for the five new patients. His attraction to Valentina is undeniable, but he's shut down by the woman's long-time business associate-and time's relentless scythe.
But to save Valentina's life, he has to beat the blade. He must win a frantic race against the clock to not only find an antidote to a mysterious poison, but also determine exactly who wants Valentina dead.
Will Valentina and her specialty chefs survive this attack from an invisible enemy in time to prepare a feast fit for a King? And if Marcus succeeds in saving her, will it be only to watch her walk out of his life forever?
