Diana
First thing to know about me? I don’t need an older man with money to solve my problems. And yet, men my own age seem to constantly disappoint, mistreat, and even get me into trouble with the law. My family has helped me before, but I’m determined to stand on my own two feet this time. I’m getting a second job and I’m going to dig myself out of my worries, no matter what it takes. My new boss, however, has other plans. He doesn’t understand that my problems are none of his business, and I don’t understand his motives. He’s going to have to convince me there’s more to him than just a guy with impressive moves in the kitchen.
Leo
Life has been good to me so far. My successful pizzeria is the talk of the town and I have everything a man could need or want. What I don’t have is a good enough reason to show up single to the family reunion. Again. Finding true love is not all that easy when all I do is work. Turns out, I don’t need to try to find it, because when Diana walks into my restaurant looking for a second job, I’ve found my missing piece. Everything about us makes sense, and I’m determined to show her I’m more than just the guy holding the dough; I’m going to be there for her, through thick and thin.

Leo is attracted to her right away and when Leo sees Diana distressed after delivering pizza cause and asshole customer she promotes her to line cook .

Leo’s brother finds Diana ex and they get the charges dropped on Diana. Leo and Diana have a date night and it turns into sexy time I loved the story so cute .
Quotes :Baby, no axes are falling anywhere near you as long as I’m in your life.”
I’m right here, Diana. I’ll always be right here.”
No one has ever kissed me like that.” He growls and kisses me again, murmuring in between prodding, warm, wet kisses. “No one else will.
Diana, with an eerie calm, turns to me. “Leo?” “Yeah, baby?” “Hit him again for me, would you? That hurt my hand.” She doesn’t have to ask me twice.
You know I’ll always be here to catch you, Diana.”
