Carla, restauratrice perfectionniste et célibataire endurcie, organise un dîner test crucial pour obtenir une étoile au guide gastronomique. Le seul critique disponible à la dernière minute est Mathis, célèbre pour ses papiers mordants… et son excentricité légendaire.

A single misstep, and the consequences were severe. I am Moxie Guerra, known to all who know me as a devil with the face of an angel.

Born to my father's mistress, who passed away after my birth, I am scorned by my father's second family. As the daughter of a mafia boss, I was brought up in a perilous environment.
