Life tastes better with chocolate...
All baker Jessica Mallory wants is a modest thigh gap. And her own chocolate shop. And to marry Quinn Rogerson, the man of her dreams. Too bad Quinn just dumped her, leaving her on her front steps in a hideous chartreuse dress. Now, Jessie clings to one hope: she can win Quinn back, if only she can become the woman he's looking for.
Enter Nate Lancaster, Quinn's hot best friend and a personal trainer. If anyone can whip Jessie's soft form into jaw-dropping shape, it's him. Good thing Jessie and Nate are in that safe "just friends" category. Otherwise, things could get complicated – fast. For Nate, it was love at first sight. But Jessie's got her gaze fixed squarely on Quinn. Still, Nate can't pass up the chance to help Jessie with her self-improvement plan, even if she's got another man in mind. After all, minds can be changed, and Nate's never shied from a challenge…
Review
Rating: ☆☆☆☆
When what you're looking for is right under your nose.
Jessie was determined to find love everlasting with Quinn but when he breaks up with her and makes some very unflattering comments towards her, she finds herself at a crossroads. She is set on making changes to her life to win him back. Yes he is a complete idiot but when you feel your life slipping away, you'll grasp at anything, no matter how unattractive it actually is.
Enter Nate: her best friend and someone who has been in love with her for a long time. He encourages her to make changes for herself and only herself, while making her feel beautiful inside and out. And hopefully the more time they spend together the more opportunity for Jessie to see him as a man and not just a friend.
Friends to lovers is a favourite of mine and this didn't disappoint. It was sweet just like the chocolate that Jessie creates. It was endearing. It was fun. It was a fluffy, light read.
