The Whisk Taker: Saving Madison, TX Book 3: An instalove multiracial workplace story (Saving Madison, Texas)

When a celebrity chef meets his match in a small-town baker, the kitchen isn’t the only place things get steamy.

Sophie Chen inherited more than just her grandmother’s recipes—she got the responsibility of feeding Madison’s heart and soul through the community center kitchen. So when celebrity chef Marcus Webb rolls into town expecting to find “quaint” cooking for his Food Network show, she’s ready to serve him a slice of humble pie.

Marcus has tasted the world’s finest cuisine. Sophie’s “simple” peach cobbler shouldn’t make him question everything he knows about food. When he arrogantly offers to “elevate” her grandmother’s recipe, Sophie challenges him to a bake-off that will leave more than his ego bruised.

Forced to work together in Sophie’s cramped kitchen, Marcus discovers that technique without heart is just empty calories. Sophie learns that her intuitive genius could reach beyond Madison’s borders. But when Food Network offers Sophie her own show in New York, will Marcus encourage her to leave—or fight to keep his heart’s desire close to home?

Some recipes can’t be improved—they can only be loved.
