    The first two books of the In The Kitchen series, In The Raw and In The Fire, followed bad boy chef Ethan and “Golden Boy” chef Jamie on their journey to a hard-won Happily Ever After.

    [Book Review] Getting It Right By A.M. Arthur & Aroma Ridge Georgia Peach

    Getting It Right is the story of two men, best friends since college, whose relationship comes to a boiling point when an unexpected kiss opens the floodgates on feelings both have been suppressing for the last 15 years. And it’s not as easy as simply confessing all to each other; lies, serious physical assault, alcoholism, and a serial killer on the loose stand in between these two guys and their happy ending.

    [Book Review] Stand By You By A.M. Arthur & Godiva Chocolate Truffle Coffee

    Oh, man, I told myself I wasn’t going to cry… and then I did. Multiple times. Sad tears. Happy tears. “Oh, Honey” tears. I just wanted to give Romy a hug half the time. The other half of the time I wanted to hug Brendan. I’m just so happy they have each other to hug. This book was so emotional and sweet. It’s a slow burn, slow build romance between two men who care so so deeply for each other and it’s really a beautiful thing to watch.

    [Book Review] In The Fire By Eileen Griffin And Nikka Michaels & Van Houtte Crème Brulee Light Roast

    Not going to lie, when I first read the description of this book I was more than a little surprised and thrown off. When we last left Ethan and Jamie at the end of In The Raw, the two up-and-coming chefs were very much in love and facing their six month separation with so much hope for the future – to find out they had broken up not too long after and have been apart for eight (eight!) years was startling and upsetting. I almost didn’t want to even read this book, worried that it would break my heart as I really loved these two guys together, but I had…
