In this new novel based on the #1 bestselling Skinny Bitch books, a
twenty-something chef loses her dream job--only to find happiness
after she launches a vegan cooking school and falls for a sexy
carnivore. From the coauthor of the phenomenal #1 New York Times
bestselling Skinny Bitch life-style series--a clever, kick-ass
novel about friendship, romance, and making healthy choices both in
and out of the kitchen. Clementine Cooper is a born vegan,
com-mitted in every way to the healthy lifestyle she was raised
with on her father's organic farm. But how bad could a little
butter be? Bad enough to get the ambitious and talented sous chef
fired when an influential food critic discovers dairy in Clem's
butternut squash ravioli with garlic sage sauce. Though she was
sabotaged by a backstab-bing coworker, Clem finds herself
unceremo-niously blackballed from every vegan kitchen in L.A. Like
any vegan chef worth her salt, however, Clem knows how to turn
lemons into delicious, cruelty-free lemonade cupcakes. She launches
the Skinny Bitch Cooking School in hopes of soon opening her own
cafe in an empty space near her apartment. But on the first day of
class, sexy millionaire restaurateur Zach Jeffries puts a fork in
her idea with his own plans for the space--a steakhouse. Clem is
livid. For a carnivore, Zach is more complicated than she
anticipated. He's also a very good kisser. But could dating one of
the most eligible bachelors in the city--and a meat-eater--be as
bad for Clem as high-fructose corn syrup? Shouldn't she fall
instead for a man who seems to be her perfect match in every
way--like Alexander Orr, a very cute, very sweet vegan chef? Clem
thought she was open-minded, but as she confronts the challenges of
budding entrepre-neurship, old rivals, ex-boyfriends, and tempting
suitors, she begins to wonder if she can ever say "I love you" to a
man who hates tofu.

buff on the right foods. Eating well shouldn't be a "girlie"
thing--and the Bitches will whip any man into shape with their
straight-talk, sound guidance, and locker room language.
