Review: Chocolate Aftertaste
BLURB:At her pre-wedding dinner, Nora Darkin, the daughter of a wealthy entrepreneur, discovers her fiancé is not the man she thought he was. As her father hoists his glass to toast them, she makes an announcement: there will be no wedding to her father's right-hand man.
Due to the fresh rift driven between her and her father, Nora escapes to the quaint town of Dreara. Determined to live her life her own way, she makes new friends and pursues her lifelong desire of becoming a chef. Ethan Danes, a neighbour with his own broken heart, helps soothe hers.
Just as Nora discovers what it means to be happy, and she begins to fall in love with Ethan, a woman from his past re-enters his life…

Review: To do something for one person may mean hurting another. But sometimes, it's what's best. Easy? No. It is what it is. For Nora, she realized at the last second that she couldn't go through a wedding with a man she knew that spending the rest of her life with wouldn't work. The man happened to be someone her father thought highly of. What does Nora do? Starts over, making a life for herself.
Chocolate Aftertaste is full of new beginnings, and ghosts from a past. The story explores what it's like to create a life for yourself, but also having to face the history that brought you there.
This is a good story. I enjoyed it quite a bit. The characters are real, the situations understandable and easy to relate to. There were a few issues I had with the hero and heroine at times, but nothing that drew me away. I'm interested to see what else this author has in store.
