“A lovely story about fake dating, French cuisine, and two trans people who fall in love despite all that is stacked against them. ”

“The perfect fake dating book does exist, and it's Chef's Choice. I absolutely loved their banter throughout. This book had the perfect balance of humor and heart.”

“While this romance employs a number of typical tropes such as, fake dating, forced proximity and millionaires, this book is anything but typical! The two swoon-worthy leads are trans! This may be one of the first times I've seen a beautifully depicted T4T romance in print. (Bravo, TJ Alexander! More please!) This book made me laugh, stoked my self-righteous anger and filled my heart with joy. Luna is loveably fierce while Jean-Pierre is the infuriatingly adorable French millionaire of my dreams. T4T romance forever! ”

“Luna was my favorite character in Alexander’s debut novel, and she shines off the page in this standalone sequel as she cooks up her own love story, complete with fake dating, bed sharing, relatable kitchen disasters, and true depiction of trans & queer communities written with nuance and depth. I’ve already told everyone I know to read this, so now I’m telling the world - make space on your plate for this delicious beacon of trans joy.”

“Urgent and intimate.” —The New York Times Book Review
A fake dating arrangement turns to real love in this deliciously delightful queer rom-com from the author of the sweetly satisfying Chef’s Kiss.
When Luna O’Shea is unceremoniously fired from her frustrating office job, she tries to count her blessings: she’s a proud trans woman who has plenty of friends, a wonderful roommate, and a good life in New York City. But blessings don’t pay the bills.
Enter Jean-Pierre, a laissez-faire trans man and the heir to a huge culinary empire—which he’ll only inherit if he can jump through all the hoops his celebrity chef grandfather has placed in his path. First hoop: he needs a girlfriend, a role that Luna is happy to play…for the right price. She’s got rent to pay, after all! Second hoop: they both need to learn how to cook a series of elaborate, world-renowned family recipes to prove that Jean-Pierre is a worthy heir. Admittedly, Luna doesn’t even know how to crack an egg, but she’s not going to let that—or any pesky feelings for Jean-Pierre—stop her.
Another swoon-worthy and heartwarming queer love story from a charming new voice in romance.
TJ Alexander, the critically acclaimed author of Second Chances in New Port Stephen, Chef’s Kiss, and Chef’s Choice, writes about queer love. Their latest novel is Triple Sec.
