Don’t miss your chance to fall in love with the colorful cast of characters of the Misfit Inn in Eden’s Ridge, Tennessee. ~USA Today Best-Selling Author Erin Wright Athena Reynolds is a goddess in the kitchen, and she’s got a Michelin star to back it up. Darling of the Chicago restaurant scene, she’s flying high—until a betrayal leads to her sudden fall from grace. Furious and reeling, she escapes home to small-town Tennessee to hide from the scandal and nurse her wounds among family. Logan Maxwell's life is a world away from the Windy City. His hands are full keeping his organic farm thriving and in the black, but that hasn't stopped him from reliving last summer's passionate wedding fling with the notoriously prickly, award-winning chef.

Small towns are like small kitchens, everyone's constantly bumping into each other and sooner or later something's bound to boil over. Maybe that's why Logan finds it so hard to resist Athena. Well, that and the fact that he's never been able to walk away from a woman in distress. An unexpected confidant, Logan reminds Athena of her roots, and in turn, she begins to question everything she’s worked for.

Book Description
My days and nights are bleeding into each other. And unfortunately, my mistakes from the past are catching up. I had a life. A long time ago. A wife. A business. A future. But she decided she wanted someone else. Someone a little less rough natured. Anger has started to consume my heart and my mind, but it is what it is. There’s no way out. Until she shows up. And the little saucy thing won’t take no for an answer. She’s softening my edges and making me want things I’d long given up on. I have no right to fall in love with a woman so pure. And something is off at Kadia. I can feel it. Dangerous people have always been a part of my life, but maybe it’s time for a change. I don’t want to let this woman go, even though it’s the best thing to do. I’d much rather she stay a little longer.
