About this series
Sous chef Darcy Cunningham is less than entranced with small-town Konigsburg’s obsession with barbecue. But her future career requires expanding her culinary horizons, so she talks the Barbecue King, a.k.a. Harris Temple, into taking her on as his apprentice.
Learning Harris’s professional secrets wasn’t supposed to include falling for his spicy blend of smoky sexiness and laid-back charm.
Chico Burnside specializes in flying under Konigsburg’s small-town radar, but lately life has been going a little too smoothly, even for him. Hoping to shake things up a bit, he talks Harris into teaming up for Konigsburg’s first barbecue cook-off. But once shy scientist Andy Wells catches his eye, Chico’s got more on his mind than brisket. Like enticing her out of her shell to show her just how tenderly a big guy can love.

So, I packed up my business and moved to a small town in the Texas Hill Country, complete with the cast of small-town characters you’d expect and the ridiculously sexy new veterinarian. Being the new kids in town, Cal and I kept finding ourselves thrown togetherand even though men were the absolute last thing on my mind... one thing led to another.

The last thing Erik Toleffson wanted was to become Chief of Police. He’s got enough trouble trying to rebuild his relationship with his three brothers. He’s not the bully they grew up with, but bad memories are tough to overcome. Morgan Barrett is worn out. She never planned to run Cedar Creek Winery, but there’s no one else to shoulder the load with her father injured. All she needs is sleep. Just a five-minute nap in the booth at the Dew Drop Inn…if that guy across the bar would stop staring at her as if putting her head down on the table is a crime. After Morgan yawns in Erik’s face, there’s nowhere to go but up. Until the shady mayor digs into Erik’s past and dredges up information that could drive a permanent wedge between him and his brothers—and sour any chance of a future with Morgan.

Once there, she realizes she might not be as over Nando as she thought. As the town’s new Assistant Chief of Police, Nando’s got enough trouble without sexy Kit fanning embers he thought had long ago burned to ashes.
