Second Courses

Lyndsay Leach spent seventeen years supporting her celebrity-chef husband, but when he leaves her for a much younger woman, she makes a bold—and slightly petty—move: She takes the one thing he never thought she would, his prized Lake George restaurant.

There’s just one problem. She’s never run a kitchen, her secret writing career has stalled, and her first love just walked through the door and wants the head chef job. Okay, more than one problem.

Now, with her ex opening a rival restaurant right down the road and a scathing food critic on the way, Lyndsay has one shot to prove that she’s no longer a supporting character in someone else’s story—and maybe find love at the same time.

Because sometimes the second course is the one worth waiting for.
