In this kitchen, love and ambition just might go up in flames…

In the heart of Manhattan, Maple dreams of becoming a chef—but her gift for reading people’s cravings makes any ordinary kitchen the wrong fit. Landing a job at a struggling Italian restaurant feels like fate—until a run-in with the brooding sous chef, Christian, lands her at the dish sink instead of the stove.

Christian has fought hard for his position, but with an envious former colleague watching his every move, he can’t afford distractions, not with his reputation on the line. But when an intriguing new dishwasher with secretive eyes and a surprising talent takes the dishwashing job, he can’t deny the heat simmering between them. And that is very distracting.

When Maple’s unique skill seems like the secret ingredient that could save Christian’s restaurant, will he risk the success of his restaurant and trust the woman nobody believes in or risk losing everything by following his heart?

Chefs Kiss!!

I love this series so much and this book is my favorite so far,The animosity between Maple and Christian when they 1st meet is so good. Feelings build up at just the right time and temperature.Maple has a gift of seeing what people like to eat as the Love Sense in this collection and I think it would be so nice to be able to see what people wanted, It would make cooking that much more fun!

Great Read

"Cooking With Chemistry" is the 3rd book in the Love Senses: Neurodiverse collection. This book touches on Synesthesia. This one is my favorite so far from the collection. It was such a sweet story of Maple and Christian. Christian is a chef and Maple is the new hire in the kitchen he works at. First impressions don't go well, but as they work together they find they misjudged each other. I definitely recommend this read. Such a sweet romance!

Sweet, clean Romance!!

4.5/5⭐️This has to be my favorite book yet out of the Neurodivergent Love Senses collection! The premise of this entire series is so unique and brings awareness to differences most people don’t know about. I absolutely loved the culinary aspect of this book. It seemed well thought out and researched. I felt like I was also a chef in the kitchen! I would’ve loved to have a longer story, I wasn’t ready to let the characters go. This was such a sweet story that you should definitely check out!

Heat in The Kitchen

Jenny has done a fantastic job on touching on these neurological disorders, bringing awareness to them and educated readers on these issues.This one follows Maple and Christian. Two very different people. Maple is out going, driven and willing to try new things, push the boundaries. Christian is a sous chef and set in his ways but for valid reasons that you come to learn about the more you read. Their first impression of each other isn't the best since they literally run into each other in the kitchen. Christian comes from money, parents that are more than overbearing and controlling and Maple didn't come up that way at all. Both of them have two people interested in them but they aren't into who is into them. Which makes things interesting. Christian as sous chef also has a rule for the kitchen, no dating employees but he might find himself breaking that rule for Maple. Maple also carries a secret ability that Christian doesn't find out about for awhile.It can't all be smooth sailing there is an accident that Maple suffers that causes her to run from her dream job and her dream man even though Christian tries to be there for her. She looses her special ability and feels like she becomes normal like every other chef. Now, that Maple has pushed away her dream job and dream man and lost her special ability how will things pan out? You've gotta read to find out!

Absolutely amazing!

I found this author on Tiktok and on a whim ordered this book. Absolutely amazing! Love the chemistry between these two characters (and yes I did that intentionally)! I usually don’t read this type of romance. I typically go for dark romance, but throughly enjoyed this book and I can’t wait to order more in this series.
