Everybody wants a piece of grand chef Sophie Valroux. With her once-destroyed reputation fully recovered and then some, Sophie is making her mark in the culinary world. She's running the restaurants of Ch teau de Champvert, the beautiful estate that she inherited from her grandmother. She and her fiance, Remi, are closer than ever, and she's even bonding with his daughter Lola. Everything should be perfect.
Yet, Sophie still feels something inherheart is missing.
When she's invited to cook at an exclusive event her culinary idol is attending, she thinks this could be the thing to catapult her to greater heights, maybe even bring her one step closer to her one and only dream of achieving the stars-Michelin stars.

Certain that her career will vanish if people find out, she keeps this secret to herself, not even telling Remi. She fakes it all- the menus for every meal, the taste of fresh figs, the juicy cherries in the orchard. All she has to do is get through life-andthe event-tasteless without missing a single step. Fake it 'til you make it...right?
"In this delectable sequel to The Secret French Recipes of Sophie Valroux, a chef on the rise fuels her passion for cooking while enduring the hardest challenge she's ever faced: She's lost her sense of taste. Everybody wants a piece of grand chef Sophie Valroux. With her once-destroyed reputation fully recovered, Sophie is making her mark in the culinary world as the head chef at the Château de Champvert, the beautiful estate that she inherited from her grandmother. She and her fiancé, Rémi, are closer than ever, and she's bonding with his daughter, Lola. She's even been invited to cook at an exclusive event her culinary idol is attending, and she knows this could be the thing to catapult her to greater heights and maybe even bring her one step closer to her dream of achieving the stars--Michelin stars. Everything should be perfect. But Sophie has a secret: She can't taste a single thing. After she suffers a fall, she realizes that she can no longer taste or smell any of the dishes she makes. Certain that her career will vanish if people find out, Sophie keeps it to herself, not even telling Rémi or canceling on the event. And so she fakes it all: the menus for every meal, the taste of fresh figs, the juicy cherries in the orchard. All she has to do is get through life--and the event--tasteless without missing a single step. Fake it 'til you make it...right?"-- Provided by publisher.
