About this Item

Paperback. Balance is something we all strive to achieve but few actually obtain. For a chef, balance is often a figment of one's imagination but for Jack Cahill, it had finally become his reality. Four years after Jack's public collapse while opening New York's most prestigious restaurant, Byzantine, he found solace in the mountains of upstate New York and had built a tranquil existence with his true love Karen. Jack continued to cook and his food continued to shine, so much so that he received a distinguished national award honoring his ever-evolving fare. Once the news broke, it didn't take long for his old mentor, restaurant mogul Victor Payne to seek Jack out. Victor had always respected Jack's talent and was committed to do whatever it took to ensure Jack finally became New York's most recognized chef. Victor's offer was impossible to refuse and Jack agrees to return to the city, unaware of just how far off course his restaurants had drifted. While Jack tries to put the pieces of Victor's once dominant empire back together, his all-in existence has him slipping back into his old ways. Early mornings, long days and late nights begin to take a strain on his now fragile relationship with Karen. With his home life suffering, he keeps his focus on his kitchens that were being run by the skilled but underhanded Hank Carter, who was slowly undoing all that Jack and Victor were trying to achieve. Sleepless nights, new found celebrity and a slew of pitfalls has Jack's life in a tailspin. No matter what was thrown at him, the young chef was not going to repeat the same mistakes he had made before. This time nothing would stand in his way and he was determined to have it all, even if having it all might cost him everything. This item is printed on demand.

Four years after Jack’s public collapse while opening New York’s most prestigious restaurant, Byzantine, he found solace in the mountains of upstate New York and had built a tranquil existence with his true love Karen. Jack continued to cook and his food continued to shine, so much so that he received a distinguished national award honoring his ever-evolving fare. Once the news broke, it didn't take long for his old mentor, restaurant mogul Victor Payne to seek Jack out. Victor had always respected Jack’s talent and was committed to do whatever it took to ensure Jack finally became New York’s most recognized chef. Victor’s offer was impossible to refuse and Jack agrees to return to the city, unaware of just how far off course his restaurants had drifted. While Jack tries to put the pieces of Victor’s once dominant empire back together, his all-in existence has him slipping back into his old ways.
