A Recipe for Romance

2018

When cookbook author and media personality Olivia Jennings suffers the biggest humiliation of her life on national TV, she thinks things can’t get any worse… and then she promptly gets fired from the only thing she has left—her dream job. She hesitantly returns to her hometown of Arcadia Valley to heal her wounded pride and lean on her family in her time of crisis. Wyatt Mason only ever wanted to do one run his family’s cattle ranch. In fact, the hardest time in Wyatt’s life was the four years when his dad forced him to go off to college. His devotion to ranch life even ended his only serious relationship—his college sweetheart ended their engagement because she wasn’t cut out for life on a cattle ranch. After some tough years, Wyatt will do whatever it takes to keep the family business afloat, even if it means stepping out of his comfort zone. When Olivia and Wyatt are forced to team up for a project meant to relaunch her career and save his family’s ranch, they immediately find themselves at odds. Wyatt is the kind of man Olivia has taken great pains to avoid—the kind who’d rather ride a horse than drive a sports car. And Olivia’s high heels and perfect makeup prompt Wyatt to put her in the same category as his ex—way too prissy for ranch life. Can Olivia and Wyatt ever find common ground? If they can put their preconceived notions aside, they may have the perfect recipe for romance.
