Jasper Bains had not meant to invent a love potion. He had an excess of macadamia nuts and fresh tarragon; it seemed a good idea to make pesto from them.
Every customer of Jasper’s Specialty Foods who bought some returned hand in hand with a new customer. Business was booming.
Jasper spread pesto on crackers and gave them to a frowning brown-haired woman and a young man who’d shot shy glances at her. Eyes met eyes and the winter cold was forgotten.
Jasper’s heart skipped a beat when Genevieve walked in, but he hid the pesto. That would be cheating.
