Chef Emma Sparrow has poured her heart and soul—not to mention all her money—into the restaurant of her dreams. But when her lease comes up and her location is slated for a different project by her landlord and billionaire playboy, Quinn Ryker, her entire world and all those who depend on her, are at risk.


Quinn’s spent months trying to stifle his curiosity for the gorgeous chef who runs the kitchen of his favorite bistro like she’s a five-star general. He can’t help but want her, especially when she comes marching into his office full of fire and passion, furious with him for refusing to renew her lease. Yet he now has something she wants, and he knows just what he’ll do with that heat and anger of hers, especially once she’s in his bed.


A bargain is stuck that will save Emma’s restaurant and give Quinn what he most desires—Emma. But it turns out there’s a lot more on the line when negotiating matters involving one’s body, heart, and soul.
