BOOK SYNOPSIS:
Sizzled is the next installment in Jacey Conrad and Gia Corona’s Facile Restaurant series. Each of the ten stories focuses on a different couple.
Facile’s manager, Xavier Blackwell, has reputation for being ruthless, smart and savvy with the ladies. While the first two descriptors are correct, the third portion of his reputation is not exactly accurate. While the posh London accent and prowling persona have garnered him many a lady’s attention, for Xavier, there’s only been one woman, one woman who seeped into his soul and left her mark on his heart. And she chose tonight, one of the most hectic, disastrous nights in Facile’s history, to visit his restaurant.
Food critic Lakshmi Krishnamurthy remembers her all-too-brief time with Xavier fondly. She means her visit to Facile to be a nostalgic stroll down memory lane. But due to miscommunications between nearly every member of the restaurant’s staff, it has become more of a culinary death march. Will Lakshmi take pity on the scrambling manager and invite him to her hotel room for a bit of room service?
REVIEW:
As always the ladies of the Facile Restaurant series sucked me into another sizzling hot read. Super excited to finally get my hands on Xavier… I mean his story. We have seen Xavier in just about every story. And he is always just there fixing stuff. He is like batman. He swoops in and saves everyone. But in Sizzled we get to see a not so smooth put together Xavier. I laughed so hard when Xavier had to wait outside of his office for EJ (hehehehe). Loved it!!
Can’t wait for the next installment.
And I truly hope the ladies will revisit all of these couples. I am sure there are more untapped spaces in the restaurant that they can get creative with.
