Resumen del Editor

Love is sweeter with a touch of mischief.

Judging a chocolate-making competition for the women’s shelter’s annual fundraiser should be an easy, even pleasurable, assignment for Maise, new food critic for the Bloomingfield Daily Dispatch. Too bad just the smell of chocolate makes her stomach roil.

By the time she reaches the last table, she hopes her face isn’t as green as her holiday sweater. But the tall, square-jawed man behind piles of fudge makes her want to linger, even savor the moment along with his chocolate-coffee-flavored confection.

Except there’s something Ben Elliot is hiding behind his piercing blue eyes and lazy grin, and her reporter’s nose senses a story worth exploring. She finds herself longing to discover the secret ingredient sweetening their mutual attraction.

You don't like?

it's a really good story and I love the narration.
can't wait for the next one!

Chocolates and Christmas

My two favorites in one story. It’s a short story but it was sweet (no pun intended). It talked a little about family and finding yourself.

Sweet Chocoholic Romance

I really enjoyed this unique story. A food critic that doesn't like chocolate?! Fun, quick story.

Sweet holiday romance

With so much anxiety and sadness in the world right now I needed sweet and uplifting. I've already purchased the rest of the series in audible. A holiday romance with chocolate. Already uploaded the next on series which includes a pasta restaurant. I can't wait.

sweet treat

This was a fun short listen. A food critic/judge who has a distinct problem with chocolate due to past experiences. Maise seemed sweet and wanted to defend her past critiques. That shows me she's not hard hearted or callous. Ben has a persistent winning way and it seems to be working for him. The beginnings of something sweet. Pun intended. I voluntarily listened to a free copy of this and am giving an honest review. The narrator did a good job.

Short story romance

This is an extremely short story. It’s a little love story. If you have a few minutes this can fill in the time. The narrator has a pleasant voice.

Cute

A sweet short romance. A cute meet up and romantic beginning. Good narration and charming.

A great lunch-break or workout listen!

It is not often when you run across a short book that is just about the first meeting of a couple and even with the story being just about that meeting, you feel satisfied!

I had my doubts about a 30-minute book being both complete and interesting but Josie Rivera does it very well. Allyson Voller also did a great job with both the narrative and the characters. I was kept interested and entertained by both the story and the narration.

I was given this review copy audiobook at my request and have voluntarily left this review.

Way to short

Cute and enjoyable read, but way too short; I'm not even sure I'd call it a short story. In my opinion, this could have been developed into a much better book... it just lacked a lot of substance. A benefit is that It is both a sweet and clean read.

I received a free copy of this book and am voluntarily leaving my honest review.

Short and sweet

Josie Riviera is a new author to me and I enjoyed this book. This was an entertaining, short story that ticked a number of boxes for me. Well written, the narration was good and the narrator Allyson Voller was easy to listen to. She brought the story to life for me and I quickly became invested in the story and I really liked the characters.
