Tamera Alexander is a restaurant health inspector - not a job she loves, but it pays the bills. Writing is her passion - more like writing about food. A part-time writer for Charlotte Magazine, she roams the city, seeking restaurants to review, always on the grind, never taking a moment to relax. She likes it that way. Staying busy doesn't give her time to think about the life she could've had if she'd married the right man. Her work is her life now. She's brainwashed herself into believing she likes it that way. Then she makes a mistake... Her life of all work and no play is interrupted when she writes a bad review for Central Grub House, a restaurant owned by Serenity Michaels, sister of Preston Michaels 'the' Preston Michaels, founder and chief editor of the second largest magazine in the city - Charlotte Recreational. Preston feels he has to come to his sister's defense when he reads Tamera's article in Charlotte Magazine and he wastes no time doing so. Approaching Tamera with a bold face-to-face ultimatum, he threatens to expose her career-ending secret unless she removes or amends the review she wrote about his sister's restaurant. He wasn't prepared for an instant attraction to Tamera - the enemy... Tamera didn't expect to lose her mind over Preston, a handsome man she hardly knew. She made that mistake once. She couldn't afford to make it again. She needed to get away from Charlotte for a few days, and fast! She makes her great escape by taking on a weekend assignment at a beautiful beach on the North Carolina coast. She didn't expect her drop-dead, gorgeous nemesis to be hot on her trail.
