About this ebook
Jackie Lau, the critically-acclaimed author of Love, Lies, and Cherry Pie and Time Loops & Meet Cutes, charms with an all new lightly magical rom-com about a man with a psychic ability triggered by food and his neighbor, a woman with a penchant for baking.
Whenever Grant Fung eats, he learns something about the person who prepared the food. This power—which he most certainly does not want—has caused him no shortage of trouble over the years. It’s part of the reason he usually keeps his distance from society, rarely leaving his apartment on the second floor of a large Victorian, a place with a little magic of its own.
But his new neighbor, Vicky Knox, loves to bake and share her creations; Grant, to his consternation, is tempted by a particularly beautiful chocolate cake. He’s positive that if he eats it, he’ll learn more about her than he’d want to know, so he’s surprised when nothing happens. Apparently, Vicky is immune to his powers, and they develop a tentative friendship.
Yet as he gets to know her better, it turns out that she’s not as immune as he first thought. That complicates their growing attraction, as does a series of extraordinary occurrences in their building…
