Book Blurb:
Out
of the frying pan. . .and into the fire!
Desperate
to escape the spotlight of her failed marriage to a fellow celebrity-chef,
Carly di Matisse left New York City for a tiny town in the Blue Ridge
Mountains. The restaurant she's running these days may not be chic, but in Pine
Mountain she can pretend to be the tough cookie everybody knows and loves.
Until she finds herself spending too much time with a way-too-hot contractor
whose rugged good looks melt her like butter...
Jackson
Carter wasn't looking for love. But he's not the kind of man to walk away from
a worksite—or from a fiery beauty whose passionate nature provides some
irresistible on-the-job benefits...
It's
the perfect temporary arrangement for two ravenous commitment-phobes, except
that Jackson and Carly keep coming back for seconds... and thirds... and
fourths…

First thoughts after…
I can't wait for Sloane's book and MAN I would love to see a book with Adrian!
How distracted did I get?
Gimme Some Sugar is a wonderful follow up to Turn Up the Heat! I loved getting to know Chef Carly and Jackson. Carly is funny, sweet and independent. Considering she's dealing with a horrible divorce her attitude is amazing. Jackson, sigh…a new hottie mctottie to fall for. He is sweet and sexy. I enjoyed his interactions with his mother, Carly and Shane. You really get to know a character by how he treats his friends and family! ;) Though you never really see/meet Carly's ex-husband there's a build of what he may be up to trying to delay the divorce and I found the result anticlimactic. However if you enjoy a great romance with a little steam I highly recommend Gimme Some Sugar.
I give Gimme Some Sugar…

Author
Bio:
Kimberly Kincaid writes contemporary romance novels that split the
difference between sexy and sweet, taking the traditional idea of
boy-meets-girl and infusing it with a sassy magic all her own. She believes in
fiery yet flawed characters destined for a crash-course in falling in love--
usually the hard way-- and injects her trademark humor as well as poignant
touches into her writing to create her stories.
Kimberly's
writing journey has led down some bumpy roads (that first manuscript is under
the bed, where it is very likely to stay), but there has been some fresh
pavement too (her second manuscript earned her very first contest final, and
landed the fantastic Maureen Walters at the Curtis Brown Literary Agency). One
thing is certain -- the wild ride of being a writer is a lot richer in both its
ups and downs because of friends and readers along the path.
When
Kimberly's not sitting cross-legged in an ancient desk chair known as "The
Pleather Bomber", she can be found practicing obscene amounts of yoga,
whipping up anything from enchiladas to eclairs in her kitchen, or curled up
with her nose in a book. She resides in northern Virginia with her wildly
patient husband and their three daughters.
