So today, we are very happy to officially welcome Chris Quinton to Love Lane Books. RJ and Chris have been good friends for a number of years and RJ admits that it was Chris who encouraged her to write her first book and she will be forever grateful. As are Love Lane Books....
Heat is set in the beautiful ancient city of Salisbury in the south west of England. When RJ and Chris Quinton first starting talking about writing together it was inevitable the books would a) be set in England, and b) that they would be set in Salisbury as it is a city they both love.
Add in a third generation chef with his world crumbling around him, and an American who comes over to decided his future and you have the making of a dramatic story. Then when you add in arson... things get hot.
Official Blurb
Set in the small cathedral city of Salisbury, Master Chef Lewis Mandineau no longer owns the Laurels, the restaurant that had been in his family for generations. Betrayed and robbed by an ex-lover, he's had to sell to Carnegie Enterprises, an American corporation. That isn't all Lewis has to contend with. Rachel, his beloved younger sister has been left severely hurt by the car crash that killed their parents, and taking care of her has to be his priority.Enter Devon Trelawney III, sent to assess the viability of the restaurant and its staff. Devon knows all about family tradition. But he also knows sentiment has no place in business matters, and the Laurels' potential is swamped by the debts it has accrued. Devon is a hardheaded businessman, first and foremost, but Lewis and Rachel test his resolve in different ways. Soon Devon is forced to admit that what seems like an impossible love can sometimes become something very real.
