Series: Reality of Love #1
Genre: Romantic Comedy


Who knew a cooking show could get so messy?

Elle Fierro

All I have to do is appear as a judge on this cooking show in Hollywood and my restaurant will open to rave reviews. Pretty much my lifelong dream. What I absolutely shouldn’t do is sleep with one of the contestants and ruin everything I’ve worked so hard for. But he gives good hugs, makes me laugh, fills out a simple T-shirt like nobody’s business, and is sweeter than the maple syrup he dripped all over my naked body last night…

Austin Cox

I may have been drunk when I applied to be on that reality cooking show, which is why it’s hard to believe I’m here. What’s even harder to believe is that Elle, with her painted red lips and fiery disposition, is in my bed and making me forget I need to win this damn show to get my little sister out of the foster care system.

When Elle throws me under the bus to realize her dream, will our love burn out or will we find the missing ingredient to happiness?

What a fresh and wonderful treat The Missing Ingredient was!  I always enjoy the age gap twist when it’s an older woman and younger man, and throw in a little bit of forbidden romance into the mix and it was truly enjoyable. 
Elle is quite the Spanish firecracker, extremely professional and driven, and very uptight.  She has a singular focus of opening up her own restaurant in NYC, and won’t let anything get in her way.  So when small-town California boy Austin entered her life, she never saw him coming.  He was down-to-earth and had a sense of humor, which was different from any other man she had ever been attracted to.  He helped her to open up, made her laugh and enjoy life.  Austin was such a pure and genuine soul, who put his heart on the line.  For being quite young, he had a good head on his shoulders and his priorities in line. 
The Missing Ingredient was my first read from this author and I’m looking forward to reading more!
