Table for Two by Robin Paul

A workplace injury cost Regina Cole her career and her confidence. Can a rundown beach diner restore what matters most?

After a kitchen accident leaves her with a disfigured hand and a shattered career, renowned New York chef Regina Cole finds herself unemployable, thanks to her former bosses' determination to destroy her reputation. With her options dwindling, she discovers an opportunity far from the city's cutthroat culinary scene: a weathered roadside diner in a Delaware beach town.

The restaurant needs as much rehabilitation as Regina's confidence, but the building's owner, charming, reserved Walt Mickens, sees potential in both.

When her smooth-talking attorney boyfriend Damon arrives from New York, Regina's growing attraction to Walt becomes complicated. As secrets emerge about Damon's true motives and Walt's heartbreaking past, Regina must decide what matters most: reclaiming her former glory or embracing the simpler, more authentic life taking shape around her.

With the Fourth of July grand opening fast approaching, Regina faces her biggest challenge yet: believing she deserves this second chance at love, happiness, and creating something truly her own.

A warmhearted story about finding your place in the world when life derails your plans, Table for Two serves up equal portions of romance, redemption, and the healing power of community when you least expect it.
