For seven seasons, The Somervilles were America's favorite reality TV family. The nation watched as Olive and Warner and their six children lived the American Dream, running the family-owned restaurant that made them famous. That is, until off-camera scandal drove the once-wholesome family towards cancellation. Luckily, all of the Somervilles moved onto successful careers in food and fashion -- except for one. Rye Somerville has always shied away from the camera, and now that her family's show is over, she can finally live a quiet, drama-free life while working at her humble family restaurant.
But little does she know, the spotlight is coming back for her -- in the form of a very tall, very handsome and heinously cocky celebrity chef.
Infamous chef, Sam Laurent, has charmed both the restaurant and entertainment industry despite his love of casual controversy. With a tongue as sharp as his knives, Sam has made a career out of not only his innovative cuisine, but the contentious sound bites he constantly provides the media.
So when Sam is commissioned to give the Somerville restaurant a posh new makeover, Rye finds her slow, peaceful life suddenly threatened. And to make matters worse, Sam isn't the type to back down from having things exactly as he wants it. With compromise out of the picture, Rye is intent on winning the battle, even if it means reluctantly stepping back into the spotlight… and tumbling deep into the complicated, backstabbing world of money and fame.
