ABOUT THE BOOK: Release Date December 5, 2025

Love wasn’t on the menu…He served it anyway.

My family staged an intervention and called it a vacation.
Barcelona was supposed to fix me.
No work. No noise. No more sixteen-hour days ending with me in an empty bed, alone.
I agreed because fighting back took more energy than I had.

Then he sat beside me in first class.
A voice like Rioja, dark, smooth, slow to finish.
Eyes focused on mine when I should have looked away.
A stranger who felt like the beginning of something I forgot I wanted.
By the time the sun came up, I wanted more.

The moment I sat down, I knew exactly who she was.
Rosa Delgado. The chef. The legend. The woman behind the meals I still dream about.
She’s everything I imagined.
Worn out. Walled in. Still somehow shining.
I thought love was over for me.
Now I’m wondering if this flight is the beginning of a whole new chapter.

REVIEW:The next installment in the Hearts Without Borders series has arrived. Each of the books in this series can be read as complete standalones, they do not interconnect, they merely share a theme. In First Class Fling we meet Santiago and Rosa, they have an insta-love connection and embark on a journey that feeds their souls and their bellies.

Rosa is a chef, renowned for her recipes and attention to details, when her family stages a much needed vacation for her in the form of an intervention, Rosa goes along with it, no fight left in her to give. The city of Barcelona, good food, good rest, nothing but rest and relaxation, until she meets a certain dark eyed sommelier who sets her life and heart ablaze.

Santiago is looking for a slower pace of life, with the way he has been living, his fast pace life is becoming more and more exhausting, he is enjoying things less and less. When he meets Rosa on the plane to Barcelona, their meet-cute sparks something in him that he has never felt. Not to mention, he knows who she is and what she does for a living. He has dined at her restaurant many times, and is blown away each time. Together they explore Barcelona, the flavors of the city and the slow burn pursuit of each other as well. Nothing truer has ever been said than the way to a man’s heart is through his stomach.

For a short, fast paced, insta-love romance, First Class Fling has such good substance. Rosa and Santiago are both workaholics who have lost their passion for things that they love, and needed a reminder of a slower way of life. He saw that in her, just like she saw that in him, they each needed reminding of why they love good food and good people. Burn out is so real in this day and age, no matter the life you lead, we all need a reminder to slow down and enjoy the chaos of life once in a while. Kaylene gave her readers a lovely reminder to take a breath and drink the wine now again.
