📘 Book Summary
Hazel Honeywell is perfectly content with her quiet life, her familiar routines, and a home ruled by cats. Stepping outside her comfort zone has never sounded particularly appetising. But after one disastrous evening and a makeover that goes spectacularly off-recipe, Hazel decides it might finally be time to add something new to the mix. What she doesn’t expect is the attention that follows, or just how complicated her newly adventurous life is about to become.
Adrian Soltano is a talented patissier, notorious flirt, and always ready to indulge in a little fun. With plenty of charm and a sweet creation for every occasion, there isn’t much he takes too seriously. That is, until a bet goes deliciously wrong and Hazel suddenly makes him think he could have his cake and eat it too.
Julien Anisaro left the olive trees of Itaro behind for magical Brindlewood, where he found his place creating extraordinary dishes in the kitchen. He knows exactly how to balance flavours, experiment with magic, and usually, how to keep Adrian’s antics in check. But turning a blind eye when his best friend’s shenanigans involve a certain cat-loving assistant, his typically simmering emotions start to boil over.
Cats, Chefs and a Dash of Romance is a cosy, magical romance filled with feline mischief, delicious dishes, unexpected attention, and a generous serving of chaos.
