Winnifred Meadows knew two things for 1. Chemistry and baking were meant to go together like icing on cupcakes. 2. Crew Wells was the absolute worst man in all of Philadelphia. Okay, maybe second worst. But when Winnie finds herself suddenly in a bind, relying on winning a food truck competition with a massive reward- more than enough to fly her back home to her family, she realizes she and her excellent baking alone can’t make an entree worthy of $5,000. Unfortunately for her, Crew Wells certainly can.Crew knew cooking like the back of his hand. He’d grown a successful business out of it and made himself a proud owner of one of the top savory food trucks in a three-hour radius. You would think that would be enough to impress his family into realizing he was no longer some clueless eighteen year old kid, but it wasn’t. However, winning a city wide food truck competition and claiming the number one title would have to be enough to cause them to finally see him for what he was. Except, this title was only possible by serving the best entree and dessert. His only option? Relying on the one girl he would run miles away from.When their ruse of partnership comes across as ingenuine, their only choice left is to pretend as if they were dating. After hours of working together, and a trip to Winifreds home town, these two begin to wonder if there really is a fine line between love and hate? less
