Summary
Sweet Heat
They don't wear suits, but the five Carter brothers work hard to earn a day's pay - and keep the right woman satisfied... No one turns out luscious pies and to-die-for cakes like Marvin Carter. Few outside of the family know about his baking skills, but working as a restaurant line cook is getting old fast. Now he'll do whatever it takes to win start-up money from a major cooking contest and launch his own dessert franchise. But his prime competition is making things hot for him in - and out - of the kitchen... Naomi Wells is as savoury as her soul food and has twice the spice. This confident, large-and-in-charge beauty also has high aspirations, and will work all her skills against the tasty Mr. Marvin to take first place - and start her caterer-to-the-stars business. As their attraction burns hot, the other contestants can't take their heat nor their talent, and threaten to burn their dreams to ash. Will the desire be doused - or can Marvin and Naomi find common ground and fire up the chance of a lifetime?
