In the next sizzling romance in Kristen Proby's New York Timesbestselling Fusion series, two celebrity chefs compete in a culinary competition, but resisting each other will prove to be the greater challenge.
Cooking isn't what Mia Palazzo does, it's who she is. Food is her passion . . . her pride . . . her true love. She's built a stellar menu full of delicious and sexy meals for her restaurant, Seduction. Now, after being open for only a few short years, Mia’s restaurant is being featured on Best Bites TV. To say Seduction is a wild success is an understatement. All the blood, sweat, tears, and endless hours of work Mia has put into the restaurant has finally paid off.
Then Camden Sawyer, the biggest mistake of her life, walks into her kitchen . . .
Camden's celebrity chef status is world-renowned. He's the best there is, and the kitchen is where he's most at home. He can't resist the invitation to Portland for a showdown against Mia for a new television show. Mia was in his life years ago, and just like before, he's met his match in the beautiful Italian spitfire. The way she commands the kitchen is mesmerizing, and her recipes are clever and delicious. He's never had qualms about competition, and this is no different. He can't wait to go head to head with Mia. But can he convince her the chemistry they share in the kitchen would be just as great in the bedroom as well?
As Mia and Camden face off, neither realizes how high the stakes are as their reputations are put on the line and their hearts are put to the ultimate test.
Kristen was born and raised in a small resort town in her beloved Montana. In her mid-twenties, she decided to stretch her wings and move to the Pacific Northwest, where she made her home for more than a dozen years.
During that time, Kristen wrote many romance novels and joined organizations such as RWA and other small writing groups. She spent countless hours in workshops, and more mornings than she can count up before the dawn so she could write before going to work. She submitted many manuscripts to agents and editors alike, but was always told no. In the summer of 2012, the self-publishing scene was new and thriving, and Kristen had one goal: to publish just one book. It was something she longed to cross off of her bucket list.
Not only did she publish one book, she’s since published close to thirty titles, many of which have hit the USA Today, New York Times and Wall Street Journal Bestsellers lists. She continues to self publish, best known for her With Me In Seattle and Boudreaux series, and is also proud to work with William Morrow, a division of HarperCollins, with the Fusion Series.
Kristen and her husband, John, make their home in her hometown of Whitefish, Montana with their two pugs and two cats.

Savor You is book #5 in the Fusion series by Kristen Proby. It is finally Mia's turn. The kitchen at Seduction is the stage for a new television show. Mia is not excited about the show and is only going along with it because it is good for the restaurant.
Mia and Camden are both strong successful chefs. Once upon a time, back in culinary school, they were roommates, good friends, and for a time they were more. Put together by the television network in a cooking competition show, Camden and Mia find themselves suddenly back in each other's orbit after 10 years and Mia has some 'splainin' to do.
Mia and Camden are both amazing characters. They have great chemistry and a great friendship. While in the past, Mia ran from her problems and her relationship, nowadays Mia and Camden have great conversations. Camden is overlooking past hurts and trusts that Mia will be a grown-up about their relationship this time. They've learned to communicate and it is quite impressive and unexpected.
This series is so much fun. I love that the restaurant is owned by this group of friends. Each woman is in charge of an area of the business. Mia's area is the kitchen. In Savor You we get a front row seat of what goes on in Mia's kitchen. Mia and Camden are sexy and fun and I enjoy their banter in the kitchen and out of it.
Savor You is a fun and flirty book. It's filled with friendship and romance and all of the fluffy goodness you'd expect from a romance. The Fusion series as a whole is sexy and shows the strength of these incredible women. They are sharp and shrewd in business and supportive in their friendships. These characters are real and likable and I heartily recommend it.
4 out of 5 Stars
