The Secret Ingredient

by KD Fisher

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ /5

This was a surprising delight! 

I was immediately swept into the story by KD’s easy writing style, the beautiful Maine location and the delicious food descriptions.

I especially enjoyed how these two opposites found each other and within that, their other half!

Adah was rough up in a strict religious home and now the single mother of a young boy has taken the opportunity to escape her refuge of the big city to make a hoe in a seaside resort town. She has the been give the hard chef position at anew restaurant… too bad she is still under the thumb of a misogynistic manager who does not respect her and her abilities.

On the flip side , there is chef and owner of the critically acclaimed restaurant across town, Beth. Beth was brought up in a loving home and has had the freedom to follow her dreams. She now lets her creativity flow in her business.

Like two opposite magnets, the attraction between these two is palpable. Both needing to learn to love and trust, in order to find happiness together. I adored both characters and found them both deeply relatable. A truly delicious love story!

The Secret Ingredient by KD Fisher is scheduled to release October 27th, 2020.

Book Description

Two amazing chefs. Two very different restaurants. One recipe for love.

For single mom Adah Campbell, the executive chef job at a posh restaurant in quaint South Bay, Maine is a dream come true—and the perfect opportunity to start over, far away from a home that’s never felt entirely hers. But fitting in has never been easy, and between a new town, a new boss, and the unexpectedly attractive owner of a rival café, things get off to a rocky start.

Never did free-spirited Beth Summers think she’d still be in Maine. Travel the world gathering delicious recipes and finding friends and lovers? Absolutely. Step in to run her family’s small-town café? Not so much. However, once Beth commits to something, that’s it. Soon, The Yellow House is the hottest spot in town, but Beth’s out of energy—and out of ideas for moving forward. 

Until Adah Campbell walks into her life. As sparks fly, both chefs have to decide if they are willing to make sacrifices...or if it’s really too many cooks in the kitchen. 

Carina Adores is home to highly romantic contemporary love stories where LGBTQ+ characters find their happily-ever-afters.
