Summary: Rosie Radeke firmly believes that happiness can be found at the bottom
of a mixing bowl. But she never expected that she, a random nobody from
East Liberty, Ohio, would be accepted to celebrity chef Denis Laurent's
school in Paris, the most prestigious cooking program for teens in the
entire world. Life in Paris, however, isn't all cream puffs and crepes.
Faced with a challenging curriculum and a nightmare professor, Rosie
begins to doubt her dishes.
Henry Yi grew up in his dad's restaurant
in Chicago, and his lifelong love affair with food landed him a coveted
spot in Chef Laurent's school. He quickly connects with Rosie, but
academic pressure from home and his jealousy over Rosie's growing
friendship with gorgeous bad-boy baker Bodie Tal makes Henry lash out
and push his dream girl away.
Desperate to prove themselves, Rosie
and Henry cook like never before while sparks fly between them. But as
they reach their breaking points, they wonder whether they have what it
takes to become real chefs.
Perfect for lovers of Chopped Teen
Tournament and Kids Baking Championship, as well as anyone who dreams of
a romantic trip to France, Love à la Mode follows Rosie and Henry as they fall in love with food, with Paris, and ultimately, with each other. (Pub Date: Nov 27, 2018)
Summary: Life is real enough for Dylan-especially as the ordinary younger sister of Dusty, former Miss Mississippi and the most perfect, popular girl in Tupelo. But when Dusty wins the hand of the handsome Scottish laird-to-be Ronan on the TRC television network's crown jewel, Prince in Disguise, Dylan has to face a different kind of reality: reality TV.
As the camera crew whisks them off to Scotland to film the lead-up to the wedding, camera-shy Dylan is front and center as Dusty's maid of honor. The producers are full of surprises-including old family secrets, long-lost relatives, and a hostile future mother-in-law who thinks Dusty and Dylan's family isn't good enough for her only son. At least there's Jamie, an adorably bookish groomsman who might just be the perfect antidote to all Dylan's stress . . . if she just can keep TRC from turning her into the next reality show sensation.
