Your next favourite enemies-to-lovers rom-com from the bestselling author of THE SWEETEST REVENGE and THE SUMMER JOB, for fans of Beth O'Leary, Emily Henry and Sophie Kinsella.
Olive Stone is about to spend four weeks in Italy with the most beautiful man she's ever hated.
When Olive Stone and her Italian pseudo-celebrity chef father fell out fourteen years ago, annoyingly handsome Leo Ricci slipped right in as his surrogate son and sous-chef. No one is more surprised than Olive when her father wills her his beloved (and now failing) restaurant. Or that his dying wish was for Olive and Leo to complete his cookbook ... together.
She's determined to sell the restaurant. Leo is determined to convince her not to. As they embark on four weeks in Italy, traveling from Sicily to Tuscany to Liguria, they'll test each other as often as they test recipes. But the more time Olive and Leo spend together the more undeniable their attraction grows. Olive finds herself wondering whether selling the restaurant might be running away, and what it might be like to try just one taste of Leo Ricci. Because he isn't who she expected, and this trip might reveal more about who Olive is than she's ready for.
