Fiery chef and Kringle protégé Logan (Luke Humphrey) is Alicia’s mentor through the competition. Despite their rocky start, the two build a connection. But, can she win the cook-off and prove to herself she’s the chef Logan believes her to be? And, if she shares the truth with the Kringles, will she be accepted by them?
