Summary
Renya Barton knows how to get people to tell her the truth.
At twenty-eight, the Australian-born Chicago-based writer has built a career out of other people's stories: five memoirs, countless interviews, and a reputation for knowing exactly when to push and when to let silence do the work. Her newest assignment should be straightforward—six months helping acclaimed chef Kaelyn Kingston turn a life told mostly through food into words.
There is only one problem.
Kael is hot.
Which would be manageable if she weren't also funny, observant, infuriatingly competent, and increasingly difficult to think of as merely a subject.
Kael has spent thirty-three years learning how to keep the important parts of herself private. Ren's job is to find them anyway.
For six months, they'll sit across tables, work through memories, meet families, share meals, cross cities, and become far too important to each other—all while respecting the one boundary Ren refuses to compromise.
The work comes first.
Whatever this is between them will have to wait.
Twenty-eight days before the manuscript is due, they make exactly one mistake.
