A Second Chance Romantic Comedy Ethan Woods. World-renowned patisserie chef, and Michelin-star rated restauranteur. But before he became those things, he was my first love. We shared a love for food, and pastry, and dreamed of opening up our own café/restaurant. And then he left. He broke my heart, boarded a plane, and moved to France in search of something more, something better. Something that wasn’t me, and the life we planned. So I moved on. With Ethan becoming nothing but a bad memory, I picked up the pieces of my life, my heart, and opened my very own café. Now he’s back. After a nasty divorce, Ethan is in New York. No big deal, I can handle it. Besides, what are the chances we’d bump into each other anyway? Pretty damn high, apparently. After showing up at my café unannounced, I quickly realize he’s a man on a mission, and the mission? Is me. It starts out safe enough, his attempt to get my attention love letters in the form of sweet treats. Treats we used to make together, when we were young and in love. However, my efforts to put it out of my mind, wanting it to mean nothing, prove to be pointless because it’s Ethan’s help I need when it becomes obvious my café is too small for my growing business. His help comes at a price though, and it means taking a risk and putting my heart on the line again. The chemistry in the kitchen is the same as it is in the bedroom (unfortunately) and after falling into his bed courtesy of too much alcohol, I’m left not only confused, but conflicted. My heart has always belonged to him, but now it’s my business that’s also on the line and I’m not sure if I’m ready to trust him. If this isn’t a recipe for disaster, I don’t know what is.
