Publisher's Summary

Master Chef Jamie Onassis has used every penny she has to buy a beautiful country inn she plans to turn into a five-star restaurant. Unfortunately, the inn turns out to be a "handyman's special" and, without the skills or capital to make the necessary repairs, Jamie risks losing everything.

Home and garden expert Valkyrie Valentine is a rising star among the do-it-yourself set. A seemingly perfect homemaker, Valkyrie seems destined to become the next Martha Stewart - as long as no one discovers her embarrassing little secret: she can't cook.

Media mogul Sheila Thintowski is a woman on a mission. ever since meeting the dazzling, dynamic Valkyrie Valentine, she's been determined to interview her - up-close and extremely personally. Sheila suspects that Valkyrie's hands-on skills extend well beyond home improvement - and she's looking for some private lessons.

Cooking up a storm

Karin Kallmaker wrote this many years ago, but with a few exceptions, this book is timeless. A great love story that resonates today. You’ll love the two protagonists. A fantastic home cooking chef and an engaging, clever home renovator, work together to renovate an inn and diner that you really wish was real. The interspersed recipes throughout the book, make your mouth water.
