Hollywood Dreams and Buttercream

De: Sandra Sookoo

Narrado por: Becky Brabham

Sometimes the sweetest things in life don’t have anything to do with dessert.

Gwynn Flannigan wants respect from her father and freedom from her big, loud family. The icing on her cake would be to win a decorating competition hosted by her favorite food magazine writer.

Cole Marshall's one outlet from the stress of business life is writing his Cooking in the Buff feature. Who cares if he never has time for fun?

The answer for them both lies in the deep freeze at Sweet Endings, the struggling ice cream shop Gwynn manages and the one property Cole needs to secure a big promotion. He’s stuck in Madrigal, Indiana to unravel a knot of family drama that drives him crazy.

Things heat up between Gwynn and Cole on the competition floor when Cole’s alter ego is revealed. Cake and accusations fly while dreams and goals are left crumbling. In order to balance family, business, and love, Gwynn, and Cole will need to work together, and become partners - in more ways than one.

Hallmark-esk

Small town romance. These kind of stories always makes my heart say “ahhh. So cute!” I like that Gwen has good banter with the hero and didn’t put up with his bad mood.

What I didn’t like was how she let everyone else in her life take advantage of her and make her feel like her life was a failure. I prefer to read about strong girls that know how to take charge in every aspect of their lives.

Still a sweet story with a HEA.

Cute book

The main character is interesting and cute. I don’t want to give the book away but all I can say is you should read it.

An unexpected treat

I recieved this book for free in exchange of an honest review. At first I was uncertain about this book. The book blurb was enticing so I took a chance on this new author. I was so pleased with this book. The story was sweet and very charming. In places it was a bit long winded (just my opinion) the story had a good flow to it. My only negative comment is that the narrator tried to do multiple voices and some of her voices kind of irritated me. Really sorry to say that, but it's the truth. I would definitely read this author's work again. I hope this review helps others and hasn't made anyone mad.

Sweet , clean, enemies to lovers romance

I asked to receive this free review Audible book and wrote this unbiased review. If you're looking for a fun yet thought provoking romance, I urge you to listen to this book.Gwynn and Cole both come from dysfunctional families and both will use these experiences to grow and come together. There are several funny moments. The narrator gives the characters distinctive voices. She does need to work on her male voices though. I recommend this Audible book.

Enjoyable

While I enjoyed the book, there were a few mild cuss which could have easily been left out. The dysfunctional homes and both characters certainly helped form them into who they were. I was happy to see them overcome their pasts and have a happy ending. The story had a fun feel to it. Narrative was good as well.

I received a free copy of this book and this is my honest review.
