About the Book
He’s sexy. He’s
southern. And he’s a superstar chef. Meet Elijah Jackson, my hot new neighbor...
From the outside
looking in? I’ve got it all. Prestigious job. Pretty house. And a perfect
boyfriend who proposed with the perfect ring.
But as beautiful as
my life looks on the outside, I feel like something’s missing. So I hop in my
car and head south. I’m hoping the thousand mile distance will clear my
mind--and give me time to work on the romance novel I secretly want to write.
Charleston, South
Carolina: home to stunning architecture, sultry accents, and--oh yeah--my new
neighbor, Elijah Jackson. A chef at one of the city’s most renowned
restaurants, he’s simultaneously intimidating and inviting. Especially when he
shows up at my door, shirtless, offering me homemade biscuits.
As if his abs for
days and inked up deliciousness aren’t enticing enough, he also encourages me
to chase down my dreams, one chapter at a time. And the chemistry between us?
Hotter than the kitchen at Eli’s restaurant.
But I still have a
life a thousand miles away. One I’ve worked really hard to build. And I don’t
know if I can just leave it all behind.
Romance novels

and this yankee girl?
SOUTHERN CHARMER

About the Author
Jessica Peterson began reading romance to escape the
decidedly unromantic awkwardness of her teenage years. Having found solace in
the likes of Mr. Darcy, Jamie Fraser (OMG love the gingers!), and Edward
Cullen, it wasn’t long before she began creating tall, dark and handsome heroes
of her own.
She lives in Charlotte, North Carolina with her husband, Mr.
Peterson, and her smelly Goldendoodle Martha Bean. She is the author of the
super sexy STUDY ABROAD and FLINGS WITH KINGS series. Check her out at www.jessicapeterson.com

They start out as neighbors and become good friends and he cooks for her and she lets him read her work in progress. Olivia at the start of the story is on a break from her boyfriend and I liked that she waits to end things before she gets romantically involved with Eli.
Eli when he finds out about the boyfriend well things do not go well. Think alpha and jealous man. Eli has some issues as well. He owns two restaurants and one is a success and one is failing so he is a man needing comforting and I love how Olivia flirts and helps him deal.
Together they were a fun couple and I really enjoyed watching them fall in love.
