Something Selfish

Sterling Springs, Book 1

De: Dakota Forest

Narrado por: Jacob Morgan, Vanessa Edwin

She’s the local barista, he’s the new chef in town.

Kelsey Rivers has spent her life in the shadow of the Teton Mountains in her small Wyoming town. Between the constant flow of tourists and seasonal workers, she’s used to people not sticking around. What more could she need besides her best friend and fellow barista, her dog, and an unlimited supply of espresso shots?

That is until a tattooed chef, with charming good looks and an even more charming personality, sits down next to her at the local bar. Kelsey can’t remember the last time anyone made her smile, let alone laugh the way he does.

Opening a new restaurant in the trendy Wyoming town was only supposed to be a stopover on Sutton Sterling’s way to more culinary accolades, following in his older brother’s footsteps. From small town Sterling Springs, New Mexico to hotshot chef, who takes nothing seriously except what ends up on his menus, there’s one recipe he can’t figure out.

What did Sutton do wrong two years ago when he met the local girl with the hard-to-earn smile, on his first night in town? No matter how hard he tries, she continues to maintain this one-sided grudge.

A “stolen” car, a landslide, a lot of gelato, two furry sidekicks, and a shared love of reality TV keep bringing these two together. Will they take the hint and finally do something for themselves… SOMETHING SELFISH?

Something Selfish is a spicy small town romance filled with banter, undeniable chemistry, and flashbacks to Kelsey and Sutton’s meet cute. Fall in love with the new chef in town and his local barista, and when things start heating up in the kitchen, cool off with some ice cream.
