Divine Decadence

by Victoria Pade

Allyn Danner was in trouble. As the overextended owner and sole employee of Danner's Decadent Desserts, she couldn't afford to refuse Ian Reed's offer of free help...even if it did come with strings attached. But Allyn had been the "loving partnership" route before -- with devastating results. How could she open up to a man who admittedly intended to steal her battered heart?

Ian's words were more tempting than her tastiest cookies, his kisses more seductive than her triple-chocolate mousse.... But could Allyn take a chance on a happiness sweeter than anything she'd yet concocted?

About the author

Victoria Pade is the bestselling author of numerous contemporary romances, six historical romances and two mystery novels. She began her writing career after leaving college to have her first daughter. That daughter was seven years old and there was a second daughter, before Victoria had her first book accepted for publication. That novel and the three that followed it were historical romances. But the exit of her husband and the urge to do more contemporary writing that explored the kinds of problems she was facing inspired a switch.

Reviews

[Evan · Rating 3 out of 5]

Not bad, sparks were felt, characters were relatable, overall attractive and had enough personality to feel real.
For me hit a bit too close to home due to being too relatable, why I sometimes hesitate to read romance genre.
Quick fun read, but not something I would come back to read all over again, hence the rating.
