Delectable: A Sweet Romance

by Phoenix Ash

Joi Briar despises Thursdays. Each one reminds her of her gut-wrenching, soul-clearing, crown-snatched heartbreak. If it weren't for the piece of heaven she found in the slices of chocolate cake served by a local boutique cafe and the morning wake up calls from her older sister, she'd keep her head under covers and drown in her days. That is, until the one day she enters the bake shop and meets a new kind of sweet. The kind that wakes her in the morning, infects her thoughts during the day, and feasts on her body at night. Officer Nile Ledger is as handsome and determined as they come. He's on a mission to help heal the city of its strained relationship between community members and the police department. Not everyone, however, is on board with his idea of taking care of his people. But when he lays eyes on a woman whose mere glance carves her image onto his heart, he seeks her confirmation and finds himself swimming in her depths. Take the journey with Joi and Nile as they fall into the deep. Stand behind them as they fight off their past lives for a chance at togetherness. Heal with them as they face fears, overcome danger, and throw caution to the wind for a taste of sugar.

"This is my first time reading a novel by Phoenix Ash, and it definitely won’t be my last. Delectable is a sweet romance that will have you running to the dentist to scrape out all that delicious, sweet, juicy story you've become addicted to. The book cover is a vision I can appreciate, featuring a woman with sexy lips, nails, and a bite of chocolate that draws you in. Phoenix Ash's creativity shines through in the way she names each chapter after a dessert—my favorite being 'Dipped Chocolate Fondue,' which had me coming back for seconds. Joi and Nile, the main characters, have such sizzling chemistry that you’ll want to jump into the book and watch it play out in 3D. Thank you for the chance to enjoy your incredible work."

Delectable, Indeed!

4.5 ⭐️ Sometimes who we think is the one isn’t. Nile came in after Joi experienced a betrayal that left her insecure. Nile was a MAN! No games, pure intentions & loved Joi how she needed to be loved! “Judge him on his own character & not the sum of your past”!

Page turner

I was told about this book from a poetic writer and it was a very good read. I think it took me about two days to read it because I had to keep reading it and it was so good and well worth reading. Loved it !
Thanks for sharing your book.
