Mike Robinson Chef Cookbook

On our third wedding anniversary, I brought a gift to my husband’s office. Walking past the secretary's suite, I stopped dead. A king-size bed had been set up inside. A young woman in a designer dress was sprawled across it, a handheld game console in her hands, surrounded by imported snacks of every variety. "Kevin, the lunch you ordered yesterday was pre-packaged meals. Marcus and I both felt sick after eating it. Today, make sure it's from The Palace Hotel." Kevin -- my husband's personal assistant -- bowed and scraped before her, his face a mask of obsequious flattery. "Mrs. Thorne, please don't worry. Mr. Thorne made it very clear -- everything should be tailored to your preferences and the baby's. He knows you love the chef at The Palace Hotel, so he set up a standing VIP account for you. Anything you want, anytime." She was Mrs. Thorne? Then what exactly was I? My brow furrowed. I glanced down at the wedding ring I'd worn for years. The girl beamed, radiant. "For the baby's arrival, my husband is throwing a lavish yacht party. Every important person in New York is getting an invitation. I want the whole world to know that I'm the love of his life, and that our son will be blessed by the most powerful people before he's even born. The champagne and flowers must be the finest available -- no budget limit. Our child is going to have the best of everything from day one." I stared at the gentle swell of her belly and called my father. "Dad, that divorce agreement you drew up three years ago -- you can have the lawyers send it over now."

Lors d'un dîner de famille, ma mère m'a tendu des photos d'hommes et m'a demandé avec lequel je souhaitais contracter un mariage arrangé. Dans ma vie actuelle, au lieu de choisir la photo de Benoit, j'ai sorti une autre de mon sac. Sur cette photo figurait Charlie Gautier, l'oncle de Benoit, mais surtout, le véritable chef de famille Gautier. Ma mère a été stupéfaite. Après tout, j'étais amoureuse de Benoit pendant de nombreuses années. Pourtant, elle ignorait que dans ma vie antérieure, j'avais épousé Benoit et il rentrait rare à la maison. Je pensais qu'il avait un emploi du temps chargé et je m'étais toujours reprochée pour son indifférence. Le jour de notre vingtième anniversaire de mariage, par accident, j'avais brisé la boîte qu'il gardait précieusement sous clé depuis des années. J'avais alors découvert que la femme qu'il aimait depuis toujours était ma sœur. S'il rentrait rare à la maison, c'était simplement parce qu'il ne voulait pas me voir. Mais lors de mon mariage, voyant que Charlie et moi avons échangé les alliances, Benoit a perdu complètement la raison.

Résumé : Il m’a tout pris. Et je vais tout lui reprendre. Quand j’avais huit ans, Antonio Guerero a fait exploser mon monde à coups de balles et de rires. Il a violé ma mère sous les yeux de mon père impuissant, puis les a exécutés l’un après l’autre. Ma sœur Doriane a subi le même sort, fauchée dans son innocence. Moi, j’étais cachée sous la table. Paralysée. Spectatrice impuissante de l’horreur. Depuis ce jour, je ne vis plus. Je survis. Dix-huit ans à nourrir la colère, à former ma haine. Dix-huit ans à me forger une nouvelle identité. Mon nom est Layanne Williams, j’ai 26 ans, et je suis devenue l’une des meilleures Bodyguards de Mexico. Recueillie par Lys Taylor, une femme brisée elle aussi par Guerero, j’ai appris à me battre, à tuer, à survivre. Elle a fait de moi une arme. Et aujourd’hui, cette arme est prête à frapper. Antonio Guerero est devenu un homme puissant : ministre influent, chef d’entreprise intouchable, père de famille aimé. Mais il a oublié une chose. Moi. Il m’a volé mon passé. Je vais lui arracher son présent. Sa famille. Son pouvoir. Sa vie. Je suis sa fin.

He was her stepfather. He made her breakfast every Sunday while her mother was still alive. He was at her graduation. He kept a careful distance that Aurora noticed — and never examined. When her mother died, Aurora left and spent two years telling herself she had processed everything properly. She had not. Now her grandmother has handed her a red envelope with one name inside it. The same name. Aurora holds the note for a long time before she gets on the bus. Julian Oswald is forty years old. Cedar Falls knows him as a quiet widowed chef raising his daughter alone. What Cedar Falls does not know — what the entire culinary world has been trying to discover for years — is that Julian is the Ghost Chef. The anonymous billionaire behind the world's largest culinary empire. A face no one has ever photographed. His five-year-old daughter Lily has not spoken a full sentence since her mother died. She has not eaten voluntarily. Not for anyone. Until Aurora walks through the door. Lily says one word after two years of silence — a name she should not still remember — and Julian goes completely still on the porch. That is when Aurora understands she is not walking into a contract. She is walking back into the most dangerous kitchen she has ever been in. The one where everything between them has always been unspoken. The one where he still knows her breakfast order without asking. He was supposed to be off-limits. He was. He memorized her breakfast order anyway.

Adeline Galdur is a 20-year-old alpha’s daughter who doesn’t believe in a mate bond. She has a boyfriend and plans to get married, and mark him. She’s smart, strong, and also the pride of her pack. Kaiser Heroux is the fierce, strong, and powerful alpha of the Blue Moon Pack who enjoys intimate relations with different she-wolves, even as he waits for his mate. During one of his encounters, a witch placed a curse on him, decreeing that he would only find his mate in another world. Initially dismissing it, he continued with his life. When he encountered Adeline and suddenly disappeared, he remembered the curse the witch had placed on him. However, he chose to ignore it, attributing Adeline’s vanishing act to her intentions, which left him infuriated. Despite his feelings for her, he engaged with other she-wolves even more when he felt her infidelity. Adeline wasn’t sure what was happening—being pulled and pushed into Kaiser’s world. She couldn’t smell him yet, so she remained unaware that he was her mate. Consequently, she continued her relationship with Mike, causing Kaiser's unbearable pain which he get used to. When the Blue Moon appeared in Adeline’s world, she found herself back in Kaiser’s realm and finally smelled him. However, the sight of him engaging intimately with another she-wolf sparked her anger. How will they navigate their interdimensional bond when they have no idea when and how Adeline will come and go from Kaiser’s world? What challenges will they face when Kaiser’s counterpart in Adeline's world is an adversary she must confront, and when Adeline’s counterpart in Kaiser’s world is being used to separate them? Why do their paths cross when they hail from two different worlds?
