🎯 Where Should I Start?
ⓘ About Amanda Usen
She knows two things for certain: chocolate cheesecake is good for breakfast and a hot chef can steal your heart. Her husband stole hers the very first day of class at the Culinary Institute of America. She loves cheese, chocolate, carbs, and yoga in all forms. When Amanda’s not busy cooking or writing, she can typically be found reading or hanging out with her small menagerie of ducks, cats, and kids. “Scrumptious” is the first novel in the “Sexy Chefs” series and was released in 2012. Sparks fly between Marlene Bennett (a love em and leave em pastry chef and poker sharp) and Joe Rafferty (a traveling chef-for-hire) as these two culinary perfectionists are stuck sharing a kitchen.
