This was a run read! The premise is that an American, Carrie Ann Cole, takes the job of personal chef for the Duke and Duchess and their little boy and girl in Kensington Castle. They are never referred to by their names, which I kind of liked. She has a contract for one year. Her boyfriend is back in Chicago and is a fabulous chef in a famous restaurant. He wants a break in their relationship, so she goes off to London alone. The very first full day as Chef, she finds one of her sous chefs very dead in the greenhouse off her kitchen. She's in for a bumpy ride! This was a good first book in a series. It introduced a lot of people that will continue to be in the next book. I highly recommend it.
