SPLASH  Twentysomething Allie Simon is used to playing by the rulesuntil Chicagos most sought-after  up-and-coming culinary genius  Benji Zane  walks into her world and pulls her into his. The only thing more renowned than Benjis mouthwatering masterpieces and equally luscious good looks? His struggle with addiction and his reckless tendency to live life on the edge  no matter the havoc he wreaks along the way. But loving someone means supporting him no matter what  or so Allie tells herself. Thats why  when Benjis offered the chance to light up foodie hot spot Randolph Street with a high-profile new restaurant  Allie takes the ultimate risk and invests her life savings in his dream.  Then one day Benji disappears  relapsing to a place where Allie cant reach him. Left with nothing but a massive withdrawal slip and a restaurant that absolutely must open in a matter of weeks  Allie finds herself thrust into a world of luxury and greed  cutthroat business and sensory delight. Lost in the mess of it all  she can either crumble completely or fight like hell for the life she wants and the love she deserves.  With razor-sharp wit and searing insight  Emily Belden serves up a deliciously dishy look behind the kitchen doors of a hot foodie town  perfect for fans of Sweetbitter and The Devil Wears Prada.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"My Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45792392839221,"sku":"ByrdShop_152581141X","price":65.44,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/9781525811418.jpg?v=1784748268","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/hot-mess-9781525811418","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
