Delectable Series — Em Lynley

The way to a man's heart is through his stomach, and no one knows it better than the men in EM Lynley's Delectable Series.

In Brand New Flavor, Artisan ice cream maker Jay Brown and food critic Cameron Clay have one delicious encounter that could lead to much more, if they can find each other again. Simon Ford resents the easy life of those like Austin Kelvin, owner of Kelvin Cellars in Napa Valley, in *An Intoxicating Crush*. But Austin's business is going under, and when Simon's true reasons for being at the winery come to light, Simon will have to risk everything to prove his sincerity.

When Alex Bancroft's bakery burns down a week before Christmas and he's pulled from the flames by Kevin Flint in Gingerbread Palace, the gingerbread house he donates to charity seems like it's not going to happen, until Fire Station 7 comes to the rescue yet again. But can Kevin come out of the closet long enough to see what he might be missing?

In Spaghetti Western, professional chef Riley Emerson's dreams are in tatters when he takes a job at the Rocking Z guest ranch. Colby Zane is ecstatic when the new cook turns out to be his hot one-night stand, but financial problems at the ranch may drive them apart. In *12 Courses*, chef Thom Kennedy has finally regained his confidence after the theft of his recipes when ex-boyfriend Blake Warner shows up at his restaurant several days in a row. But can he trust Blake again when he seems to know more that he's saying about the theft?
