Though as the story progressed, I didn’t think an HEA would be possible. Add in Alice’s secret love of cooking, which I also love to do, and I immediately wanted her to make all her dreams come true. I enjoyed this story, with Kit and Alice constantly trying to not fall for each other, but each ‘lesson’ makes it near impossible. Kit can’t get enough of Alice, nor can he stop himself from wanting more time with her. In exchange for lessons, Alice will provide the recipes Kit so desires, but what starts as a few tips and pointers becomes an obsession. Of course, Kit’s happy to oblige, only because Alice’s father employs a chef he needs recipes from for an upcoming club he’s opening. Heiress Alice Lusk is desperate to get the upper hand in her mother’s matchmaking schemes by getting tutored in how to attract a man or else she’ll be married off to a fortune hunter and not to someone she’d rather choose herself. We begin with an awkward encounter, where scoundrel, Kit Ward, finds a woman in his room at a house party and not one that he invited there. The wallflower and the scoundrel, a trope match made in heaven. Book two in The Fifth Avenue Rebels still has me hooked.
