Unceremoniously thrown into the workforce after a lifetime of playing the dutiful wife and mother, Alexandra Silvers takes on a new role: that of a cooking instructor. As a staff member of the enormously successful School of Culinary Arts, Alex gets more than she bargained for. From students pilfering cutlery to a supervisor whose shriek can only be heard by the neighborhood dogs, it can be said that everything is going relatively well--although not smoothly. Hungry to satisfy the emptiness of her broken marriage and yearning to feel desired, she agrees to be the face of a new cooking show--and to spend time with the school's handsome CEO, Ted Hudson. As Alexandra the Grate, she is forced to find her footing as a new woman in a new world. --Amazon.
