Jacobin de Chastelux is stunned to find that her uncle has waged her on a game of cards…..and lost! She refuses to be any man’s prize so she runs and calls upon a skill that soon finds her working in the royal kitchens as a chief. Only  her uncle dies from a poisoned dessert at the Royal table and she finds herself on the run again, straight into the kitchens of Anthony, Lord Storrington. Anthony has no idea that that the new chief in his kitchen is the same woman that he won in a bet with her uncle, a man whom he was determined to have his revenge upon, but he knows that he’s attracted to her and it doesn’t take long for Jacobin to become more to him than a chief. However it doesn’t take long for the real killer to find her and for Anthony to find out Jacobin’s true identity. As love blooms between them, can they keep Jacobin’s from being arrested for her uncle’s murder and find their way to happiness?
