From No.1 New York Times best-selling author Susan Wiggs comes a wonderful companion story to her unforgettable novel Family Tree

Every great love story has a beginning. Annie Rush's started at a food cart in a vibrant city park when she came across a charismatic chef serving up gourmet street food. Together Annie and Martin Harlow conceived The Key Ingredient, a cooking show featuring Martin as the star while Annie handles production.

As they travel to Annie's Vermont hometown to film their pilot episode, she realizes that she might want to create more than television magic with Martin, but does he feel the same way? When the shoot turns out to be a disaster, Annie can't help but wonder if she is always destined to stay behind the scenes, both at work and in her love life.

Just as some recipes come together only at the last minute, Annie hopes that with a bit of good fortune, her life will be transformed into the feast of her dreams.
