About this listen
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.

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 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.

Short and Sweet
Maise is helping to judge a local chocolate competition, but she’s not a real fan of chocolate! She does her best to fulfill her duties, and while making the rounds, she meets Ben. This could be the beginning of something really sweet.
This story is quite short, but also very enjoyable. It is well written by Josie Riviera and narrated by Allyson Voller.
