MY NEWEST RELEASE
Once, Kyle Berkley stood outside the life he wanted, believing success would finally let him in. What he didn’t know was that the hardest door to open wasn’t the industry, the grind, or the world that refused to see him—it was himself.
This is a story of grit and hunger. Of kitchens that burn and dreams that refuse to die. Of a man who thought succeeding would finally make him whole, only to discover that belonging, forgiveness, and love ask for something far braver than ambition.
From a lowly fry house in San Francisco, Kyle claws his way through the heat and hierarchy of the culinary world, carrying unfinished dreams, buried grief, and a hunger that goes far beyond food. Each promotion brings him closer to the life he thought he wanted, and further from the one he actually needs.
When Alaska slows his momentum and an unexpected reckoning forces Kyle to confront the past he never planned to revisit, he must finally reckon with legacy, love, and what it truly means to belong.
