Candace 'Candy' Hampton had a problem; one she was determined to fix. Tired of being the butt of family jokes regarding her skills in the kitchen, she takes her bestie-cousin's advice and signs up for a cooking class at the local culinary academy. What happens when she shows up for the first class was enough to make her think about never returning. He's there, Kenneth Holmes, the secret service agent and Frost family friend was the instructor. Not only had he infiltrated her family gatherings, he was in her path to her learning the culinary skills she lacked.

Kenneth couldn't believe his luck when Candy walked into his classroom. Not many knew he was a trained chef aside from those closest to him. Having Candy's curvy body in such close proximity gave him the opportunity to interact with her away from the prying eyes of her family.

Thrown together on Kenneth's turf, he taps into parts of her she didn't know existed—and she can't seem to resist him. In the midst of the sparks flying between them, Candy is determined to achieve her goal while Kenneth is determined to win her heart. The heat between them rivals a boiler, but is it enough? Is there more cooking in the kitchen than savory meals?
