The Mysterious One by Marni Mann is now live!
A spicy grumpy-sunshine, age-gap, close-proximity romance from USA Today best-selling author Marni Mann …
I’m the mysterious one. The angriest alphahole who never bends. And she’s the woman who will bring me to my knees.
As the executive chef and face of my family’s billion-dollar empire, time is the one luxury I don't have. With endless responsibilities and nonstop demands, I lost my passion and love for the art of cooking. What used to be my dream job is now my worst nightmare. I was ready to walk away and give up everything we’d built …
Until Alivia happened.
She was supposed to be a temporary diversion so we could satisfy each other’s desires and then never see each other again …
Yet I knew she was different right away. A woman who was my complete opposite, the calm to my storm. The sunshine to my darkness. With a body that left me speechless.
What I didn’t see was how much we both craved a break.
Me from a career that would eventually kill me, her from an abusive home life.
When two people in pain connect, an explosion erupts. That was us. All fire and longing, mixed with a genuine need to seek shelter in one another’s arms.
While I’m still savoring the taste of her on my lips, I see her again unexpectedly and wonder … is our connection enough to surpass the secrets between us, or were we only meant to have those two nights together?

My Review
5 ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Get comfortable because you won’t want to put this masterpiece of a romance down until you’ve finished reading it!
Prepare to have your heart stolen as well as your breath, as sexy, Executive chef, Walker Weston comes out play, in this passionate, captivating and emotionally heartwarming romance.
From the very first chapter, I was utterly engrossed and enthralled by the characters and their compelling story.
This is Walker Weston and Alivia Todd’s journey to their Happy Ever After, and I couldn’t get enough of these two together!
Walker Weston is the Executive Chef of the famous Charred LA restaurant, but with too many demands of his time, he has lost his passion for cooking food, and has had enough with the demands of his siblings.
So with a big push to take some time off, from his sister Eden and his brother Colson, Walker finds himself setting up a profile on a dating app called “Hooked” and then…He sees her, a picture of a beautiful woman with the most haunting blue blue eyes he’d ever seen. Eyes that just didn’t speak to him they screamed! He didn’t need to swipe to the next. She was the one. Matched at 100 %.
Alivia Todd’s life is tough, but her beautiful, sunny disposition, ambition and her determination shines through despite the conditions in which she lives. But after an extremely difficult day, when she receives a notification from the hooked app, that she had only used once, a year ago, she agrees to the one time hook up just to get out of her head and away from her life for a while.
Their attraction is instantaneous, their banter is spot on, and their chemistry is electrifying! What was initially meant to serve as a distraction from their respective stressful lives turns out to be anything but…their salvation. Or is it fate?
“some people don’t like to let it all out, in fear that once those words are spoken, they can’t take them back.”
What a delicious, addicting, breathtaking, masterpiece of a Romance.
I swooned hard for Walker, as well as giggled, squirmed, and cried as these two brought all the emotions. This has been the best read of this series so far.
I love, love, loved it!
