When that determination turns into some light sabotage to ruffle Astrid’s perfect little feathers, the showrunners ask them to play up the tension.

But when a scheduling mishap enrolls her in Culinary Arts, Eliza is suddenly the most clueless person in the class. Her typical title of star student belongs to the aggravatingly arrogant Wesley Ruengsomboon, a charming Thai American boy whose talent in the kitchen leaves Eliza both awed and annoyed. With her rank on the line, Eliza's only hope is to snatch the midterm cooking contest win from Wesley, however improbable that may be. Add in the flavor of her grandmother's Korean recipes, the heat of being class partners with Wesley, and the sweetness of unexpected feelings--and Eliza must now rebuild everything she knew about success, love, and what it means to be herself, from scratch.
