The Chocolatier's Secret
Will one mistake ruin everything?
Andrew Bennett has an idyllic life in Magnolia Creek, Australia. He runs a chocolate business he adores, is married to Gemma, the love of his life, and has a close relationship with his father, Louis. But when Andrew receives a message from his high school sweetheart, it sends his world into a spiral, and the relationships he holds dear will never be the same again.
Molly Ramsey is looking for answers. After her last attempt, she believes the only way to get them this time is to face her past head-on. But to do this, she has to fly to the other side of the world – and she’s afraid of flying. Her search for answers lands her in an emotional tangle, not only with her past but also with a man very much in her present.
Family is everything to Gemma Bennett and she longs to have a house full of kids, but it just isn’t happening. And when Andrew’s past makes an explosive impact on the family, Gemma must decide whether she can accept the truth and open her heart in a way she never thought possible.
In this story of love, family ties and forgiveness, will past mistakes be the obstacle to a Happy Ever After?

"There are plenty of different emotional layers. I loved the contrasts, there's sadness and joy, anger and unconditional acceptance, fear and bravery and there are secrets and truths. The ending is unexpected and sweet, which is something I also liked a lot." Librarian Lavender Top 500 Reviewer

Another great Story
I loved how the characters from the first booked are weaved into the story, whilst this is a complete standalone book in its own right.
I enjoyed the new characters and storyline.
