Room Service by Jill Shalvis is a delightful sexy, spicy read. Emmaline ¿Em¿ Harris¿s TV producing career is hanging by its last thread. She is giving one more chance to get a hit show on her hands. Em sets her sites on hot chef Jacob Hill. She has heard nothing but rave things about his ability in the kitchen. But Em wasn¿t prepared for Jacob¿s ability to heat things up outside of his work place. Furthermore Jacob¿s restaurant is located in the sex themed hotel Hush, no wonder she can¿t keep her mind on her mission to nab Jacob for her show. Jacob Hill has risen from his humble beginnings to become a world-class chef. He wants no part of a reality TV cooking show. His first meeting with Em is highly charged. They stumble into a sex filled relationship. But they connect on a deeper level that has both of them running for the hills. Room Service is a treat. Its characters are likeable and well written. You find yourself falling in love right along with them. Jill Shalvis can really pen the hot and sassy story.

When TV producer Emmaline 'Em' Harris is sent to the exclusively seductive Hush Hotel in Manhattan to recruit their famously successful chef, Jacob Hill, to host a new cooking show, it is her last chance to salvage the disaster that her career had turned into. Em and Jacob embark on a red-hot affair, with Jacob showing Em NYC spots that the average sightseer would never even realize exist in the city. Each is entranced by the other and they are combustible when together. Secondary characters are crucial to the story and their stories, while not given the same amount of attention as Em and Jacob, of course, are a very pleasing bonus. When Jacob refuses to do Em's show and her time at Hush comes to an end, she reluctantly returns to L.A., putting thousands of miles between them and their broken hearts. Jill Shalvis never fails to deliver exceptionally well-written characters and settings, clever, witty dialogue and rich emotion. ROOM SERVICE has all of those things you will regret reaching the end of this book, despite the warm satisfaction it delivers.

Report this reviewThank you, this review has been flagged.Though three strikes normally means you¿re out, TV producer Emma Harris is given one last chance to prove that high stands of quality in shows can be a success. She chooses to put on the air a cooking show and knows who she wants as the host chef, dynamic sexy Jacob Hill who runs the Hush Hotel¿s highly regarded Amuse Bouche. --- However, Jacob wants nothing to do with TV cooking as he believes the hosts are entertainers not chefs. However, he finds saying no to the pretty Emma an impossible task as he is attracted to her from the start. He believes she reciprocates, at least that seems to be the vibes emitting from her to him. Thus, Jacob agrees to do her show, but plans to have her for dessert. --- ROOM SERVICE is a passionate contemporary romance starring two protagonists who believes the other one is a personalized banquet made exclusively for them. Emma and Jacob are nice hard working individuals who the audience will like. While the support cast adds spicy dessert, the lead couple¿s romance over TV cooking (and a few hotter locales) makes for a fun repast that the audience will enjoy. --- Harriet Klausner
