FORTUNE ON THE MENU Even in a town as eclectic as Austin, Keaton Fortune Whitfield stands out.

When she's not on her shift, she's too busy studying to pay attention to him—which only makes him want her more. Francesca has been burned before, and she won't let the Londoner melt her heart.

Could a hash-slinging waitress really find happiness with a Fortune?
