Taste the Heat by Rachel Harris released today! In honor of this release Rachel Harris had the brilliant idea to post recipes! I believe the options were: a recipe you like to make or a recipe you would love to make with your sweetheart. (There may have been more options. I can't quite remember.) Anyway, the one I chose was a recipe I would love to make with my sweetheart. Actually, I have done just that. :) My sweetheart's name is Matt by the way. He has Nephropathic Cystinosis as well. We met in an online support group for adults with Cystinosis. (If you would like to hear more about that "story" let me know. I may post something here in that case.)
Before we get into the recipe let's see some more about this book. :)
GoodReads Blurb:
One sexy fire captain. One Cajun chef, One combustible
kitchen…
When chef Colby Robicheaux returned home to New Orleans to
save her family restaurant, the last person she expected to reconnect with was
her brother’s best friend and her childhood crush. As tempting as a
sugar-coated beignet, Jason is one dish she doesn’t want to taste. Colby is
counting down the days till she can leave the place where her distrust of love
and commitment originated and go back to Vegas.
Fire captain Jason Landry isn’t looking for love, either. He
knows he should focus on finding the perfect mother for his daughter, but when
he first sees Colby, all grown up and gorgeous, he can’t help but be drawn to
her. And when she suggests a no-strings-attached fling, Jason doesn’t want to
say no.
As their relationship grows more intense, Colby finds that
Jason isn’t as easy to leave behind as she thought. Could turning up the heat
on something real be worth the possibility of getting burned?

About the Author:
Rachel
Harris grew up in New Orleans, where she watched soap operas with her
grandmother and stayed up late sneak reading her mama’s favorite romance novels.
Now a Cajun cowgirl living in Houston, she still stays up way too late reading
her favorite romances, only now, she can do so openly. She firmly believes
life’s problems can be solved with a hot, powdered-sugar-coated beignet or a
thick slice of king cake, and that screaming at strangers for cheap, plastic
beads is acceptable behavior in certain situations.
When not
typing furiously or flipping pages in an enthralling romance, she homeschools
her two beautiful girls and watches reality television with her amazing
husband. Taste The Heat is her adult romance debut. She’s the
author of MY SUPER SWEET SIXTEENTH CENTURY and A TALE
OF TWO CENTURIES. She loves hearing from readers! Find her at www.RachelHarrisWrites.com.
I hope you enjoyed this blog post! If you enjoy romance I think you should check out Taste the Heat. I'm currently reading it and enjoying it. Also, there is a giveaway below!
