How to Knit a Wild Bikini

USA Today bestselling author Christie Ridgway stitches together the perfect beach read with the first novel in the Malibu and Ewe series.

Malibu & Ewe has become the knitting hotspot, the perfect place for L.A.'s hip, young crowd to enjoy colorful yarn and intimate conversation in a beach side setting. Just ask chef Nikki Carmichael. It could be the softest place for her to land if her new job falls through.

With a bum knee, Nikki's days in restaurant work are numbered, so she's set her sights on becoming a personal chef. Only her trial run with lad-mag writer Jay Buchanan comes with some strange conditions--like pretending to be his girlfriend. If that's not bad enough, trying to please Jay's picky palate has Nikki running to Malibu & Ewe for a little stress relief--and to put some space between her and his perfectly toned body.

As for Jay, he's given up women for the year--but finds himself drawn to the kitchen, where he's intrigued by his sexy cook's ability to withstand the heat between them. He thinks it's time to turn up the flames...
