Publisher's summary

Can a Highland fling stir a culinary passion into lasting love?

Dean Fraser traded his football dreams for cooking when injury struck. He's now got a shot at becoming the new chef at Castle Largleith, despite his lack of experience. Working at the Michelin-starred restaurant in the picturesque Scottish Highlands could change his entire life and help him escape the clutches of his cheating ex-boyfriend.

Hot-headed Executive Chef Ewan Grant is bidding farewell to the career that cost him his lover. To atone for the suffocating guilt eating away at his life's passion, he's determined to fulfil his late partner's bucket list. First, he needs to find the perfect replacement chef.

When Ewan conducts a series of cooking competitions to find the right fit, the underdog ex-footballer takes him by surprise. Dean's unlikely culinary talent brings a storm of emotions into the kitchen. Sparks fly between them, and an illicit attraction ignites more than the sizzling hotplates. But acting on it could ruin Ewan's reputation and Dean's chance at the job of a lifetime.

Struggling to resist the tempting flavours of forbidden love, their whirlwind affair threatens both of their dreams. Can they navigate the treacherous waters of romance without sacrificing what they both need? Or will their passion leave them with a taste too delicious to resist?

Highland Fling is a forbidden lovers, age gap, found family standalone novel in the steamy contemporary Flying into Love MM romance series, featuring a fiery Scottish chef too used to his own way and a determined ex-footballer desperate to prove he’s more than a pretty face.

“A sizzling tale of culinary passion, unexpected connections, and the irresistible allure of Highland heat!”

I fell in love with Scotland a little bit more

I fell in love with Scotland a little bit more (an audio review)

Dean’s had an interesting few years since graduating high school. He’s been in a relationship for most of that with a guy who struggles with being a good boyfriend. He’s helped take care of his twin sister who has Down’s Syndrome. He helps out at the diner his parents run. He’s part of a gay football league all the while bemoaning the loss of his own professional career due to an unlucky, but ultimately devastating, injury.

One night, drowned in drink, he sent in an application to be part of a contest. To be head chef at a castle in Scotland. A premier destination where the food is some of the best in the world. He’s determined to win.

And then he meets the owner, Ewan.

Ewan’s got his own baggage to deal with. He left things undone and now he believes he has to leave the castle to complete someone else’s bucket list. Those places he plans to visit all sound exciting…but his heart is in the highlands.

And so we have the conflict of the book – Dean wants to stay while Ewan believes he must go for some misplaced sense of guilt. Dean wants to win. Ewan…wants Dean to win as well. Dean is the least conventional candidate with the most talent. The attraction? Off the charts. But that gives Dean an unfair advantage. He might be the best chef…but he’s also the one with the most intimate knowledge of the judge.

I didn’t know how things would go. I wanted Dean to win as well. But if he won, that meant he could stay and Ewan would go. Or he might lose and…? Go back to Essex? I just didn’t know. Also, for the record, I might’ve shed a few tears. This is NOT a sad book, but man, does CF love to toy with my emotions. My sensitive underbelly that I try to keep hidden.

So…I can’t tell you the ending because it’s the best ever. I can tell you this book makes another great addition to the Flying Into Love series and I’m super excited to encourage you to go out and listen. If only for Piers Ryman’s amazing Scottish brogue that was totally understandable while being SUPER sexy. Well done with this amazing due. Off to the next book which is, thank God, available today!

Kilts, football and food; who could want more?

Piers Ryman and CF White made my eyes leak. There is so much emotion wrenching dialogue in this story and Piers Ryman did a wonderful job performing it. I was totally captivated by the writing. Dean and Ewan didn’t get their HEA without some work and distance but the end was so very satisfying and the extended epilogue was perfect.

Fans of C F White's District Line series might recognize a few cameo appearances in Highland Fling. 😘
