All Lilah Allen wants to do is open her own restaurant. She knows exactly what she wants-- the decor, the menu, the overall atmosphere. She didn't go through years of culinary school and less-than-savory food service jobs just to settle for anything less.

When the ideal property goes up for sale, it's all Lilah can do to rein in her excitement long enough to seal the deal. Too bad for her that someone else has his eye on the same exact space and matches her offer.

Stubbornly unwilling to be outmatched, Lilah challenges her competitor to a healthy, friendly competition: loser backs down, winner takes all. Without hesitation, he agrees, and she sets her attention to the task at hand.

As sweet and charming as Bobby McKenzie might be, Lilah won't be distracted by the heat in the kitchen.

A pact is made. An alliance formed. Instant besties. You don't expect to go on a reality dating show to find a best friend. For Kiera and Bobby, that's exactly what happens. Bobby's here for a summer of fun. He knows it's slim, but he really wants to win the money. Kiera's hoping for lots of steamy bits with the Villa hotties. Things aren't always as they seem. One of them isn't being honest about their feelings, putting their entire friendship in danger. Days of torture ensues as these feelings grow stronger and stronger. Is it even possible though? Could they ever move past friends and have something more? COMPLETED BOOK!!! This is a standalone book! It has no association to my other Love Island series. I just couldn't give up Bobby McKenzie yet!! I started writing this story after I finished book one of my Love Island series, My Sweets. (My Sweets, Tears of our Ruins, Searching for Myself). I've been working on this off and on these last few years when I needed breaks from my other stories. I never intended to share it, but I love how it turned out. This Bobby McKenzie is different from my last one. This story focuses more on his insecurities. It was fun to explore the friendship aspect of this, instead of fast lovers like my other one. This book follows the main concept of season 2 of the Love Island app game. Operation Nope. Casa Amore. Judge Bobby. The kissing scandal. It's different though. Most of the challenges are completely different games. A sexy new character will be introduced to stir up the Villa. Plus, prom is cancelled!! I hope you enjoy this familiar story that's just different enough to add more interest.

"My compliments to the chef." ~~~ Twenty-six year-old Kahlia Obisani is the youngest chef to have won the title of Food Doyen in the nation's toughest televised cooking competition. Overseen and judged by the biggest names in the culinary industry around the world, Kahlia became a national sensation when she won the title at the tender age of twenty. With her instant success and prize money, she set up her restaurant, a Michelin star establishment with her leading the helm as head chef. Her winning dish, now her signature dish, is the best selling item on the menu; a sweet dessert with root vegetables as the base ingredients. Thirty year-old Dorian Bankfurth is what most restauranteurs would consider the toughest food critic in the cooking scene. He's built and destroyed restaurants with a single review, putting multitudes of establishments on the map and driving even more into bankruptcy and closed doors. He's cold, judgemental, and cynical, but above all things he's fair. He gives reviews as honestly as he can, and has no problem giving credit where it's due. When his friends take him to award winning Obisani restaurant for his birthday, he's faced with a dish he never thought he'd encounter in his life; a dessert made from root vegetables. The kicker? Dorian hates sweet things. The moment he finally meets the chef behind the meal, both their worlds are rocked in a shocking contrast of sweet and sour. Kahlia's sweet disposition and Dorian's cold glare clash, sparking tension and whispers in those around them. Still, despite his abrasive attitude, Kahlia keeps smiling, infecting the man with a sweetness he hadn't known he was missing, and opening his palate to a whole new world he quickly became addicted to. When life gives you lemons, you make lemonade. Could he accept the one ingredient his recipe was missing?

But now that she's on Love Island, surrounded by hot single men, she figures she may as well enjoy herself. But what happens when things don't go as planned, and events start spiralling out of her control? Will her mistakes catch up to her, or will she make it through unscathed? And will she end up finding love, or only heartbreak? ** Cover art by @smaiihands on tumblr (commissioned) **
