"Praise for Ms. Craig's Cooking"

I'm reading COOKING UP TROUBLE by Emma Craig.  It's a cute, original premise about a woman who makes a deal with the devil but doesn't realize who he is until it's too late. She's hired as a cook on a ranch by the handsome owner but possesses not a tidbit of cooking skill. Give this one a try if you're looking for an entertaining romp for the holidays.

Wasn't this a delightful book? COOKING UP TROUBLE, by Emma Craig is a paranormal historical with a devil in it.  I think Alice Duncan /Emma Craig /Rachel Wilson is highly underrated as a writer.  I love all her stuff!  Go find a copy of CHRISTMAS PIE and ENCHANTED CHRISTMAS and really make your holidays bright!

Heather Mahaffey was a beauty, true, and clever, but her father had a tendency to run off at the mouth. And that could land a girl in a whole mess of problems - especially when the man was praising her to the wealthiest rancher around, telling him that she could out-cook anyone in the New Mexico Territory. the whole situation was mortifying, especially when Heather knew she had difficulty boilng water. Worse the wealthiest man in the territory was also the best looking. Philippe St. Pierre had a face women would die for ... and a body to match. But was it worth feigning ability just to earn money for her family...and mayber for a chance to be near Philippe? And was the devilishly handsome man who offered to assist her - one Mr. D. A. Bologh - the up and up, or did her have a purpose far more sinister? Either way, with on kiss from Philippe and faster than she could say Rumpelstiltskin, Heather was in the kitchen and Cooking Up Trouble.
