What a lovely burst of sunshine this story is, after all it is set in the caribbean paradise of St. Lucia and features a great deal of delicious sounding chocolate creations.
This has all the trademarks of a Daisy James book - romance, a fabulous setting, beautiful descriptions and tasty food, with a great selection of characters.
I loved that the Paradise Cookery School was set on a cocoa plantation, and despite not reading the first book of this series, I felt like I was meeting up with old friend with this books. There is enough references to the first book catch you up with the story so far and I do think this can be read as a standalone.
I loved the guests on the Chocolate course that Millie was running, and really go caught up in their situations as well as Millie's life. There is a bit of sight seeing on the island, and the local market sounded like a chefs dream!
This was a very enjoyable way to while a couple of hours and I am looking forward to the next book.
Thank you to Canelo and Netgalley for this copy which I have reviewed honestly and voluntarily.
