Christie Ridgway has never lived east of the Pacific Ocean, north of San Francisco, or south of San Diego. To put it simply, she's a California native who loves to travel but is happy to make the Golden State her home. She began her writing career in fifth grade when she penned a volume of love stories featuring herself and a teen idol who will probably be thrilled to remain nameless. Later, though, after marrying her college sweetheart, Christie again took up writing romances, this time with imaginary heroes and heroines. In a house full of males: one terrific husband, two school-age sons, a yellow dog, and tankfuls of fish, reptiles, and amphibians, Christie makes her own place (and peace) writing the kinds of stories she loves best.

The beachside shop Malibu & Ewe has become the knitting hotspot, the perfect place for L.A.’s hip, young crowd to enjoy colorful yarn and intimate conversation. Just ask chef Nikki Carmichael. It could be the softest place for her to land if her new job falls through. . . . With a bum knee, Nikki's days in restaurant work are numbered, so she's set her sights on becoming a personal chef. Only her trial run with lad-mag writer Jay Buchanan comes with some strange conditions—like pretending to be his girlfriend. If that’s not bad enough, trying to please Jay’s picky palate has Nikki running to Malibu & Ewe for a little stress relief—and to put some space between her and his perfectly toned body.
As for Jay, he’s given up women for the year—but finds himself drawn to the kitchen, where he’s intrigued by his sexy cook’s ability to withstand the heat between them. He thinks it's time to turn up the flames . . .
"Christie Ridgway writes with the perfect combination of humor and heart. This funny, sexy story is as fresh and breezy as its southern California setting. "—Susan Wiggs
