When recent college graduate Ben lands a job at a restaurant, he soon finds that his favorite dish is spicy sous-chef Liam. Now that college is over, English graduate Ben Cook is on the job hunt, looking for something—anything—related to his passion for reading and writing. However, the job hunt isn’t going well. When he stumbles upon a “Now Hiring, No Experience Necessary” sign outside a restaurant, he jumps at the chance to secure his first job. But as Ben begins developing a crush on Liam, one of the other super-dreamy chefs at the restaurant, he starts neglecting his old college friends and his writing job plans, making his future much less clear. Will he pursue his writing dreams, or will he explore what cooks up between him and Liam?
