A Christmas novella where everyone gets their just desserts.
Olive had a major crush on Hank in high school. She was the too-smart, slightly chubby girl who gawked as Hank ran track and made all the cheerleaders swoon. After high school, the two went their separate ways. Olive opened a yoga studio and swore off sweets while Hank traveled the world. No problem, right? At least there wasn’t a problem until Hank moved back to town and opened a candy shop across the street from Olive’s studio. Now, Olive will do everything she can to shut her old crush down. But Hank has other plans, and all of them end with an Olive sundae.

Author’s Note: This is a sweet Christmas treat that will leave you satisfied, yet desperate for a little taste of sugar.

 
















   “So, what’s your poison?” He turns and places the boxes on the counter between us.

  “Just whatever you have is fine.” I try not to look at the swirling lollypops, jars of jellybeans, or rows of frosted cookies. The caramel candy apples with chocolate drizzle almost catch my eye, but I look away before I become ensnared.

    He sidesteps to the candy apple display. “Try one.”

   “No.” I keep my tone level. “Just pack up whatever you want to donate, and I’ll be on my way.”

   He smiles, and butterflies go to war in my stomach. Lightly tanned skin, bright eyes, and dark hair are still my weakness, almost as much as the mouth-watering candy apple he picks up and holds out to me. “Give it a try.
    I just put these out this afternoon. The apples are tart, and I made the caramel myself.”

I glance at the proffered treat. My sweet tooth demands that I take it, but my will is far stronger. “No, thank you.”

   His smile grows, as if he already knew I’d decline. Then he raises the apple to his mouth and takes a bite. The perfectly ripe apple makes a delectably crisp crunch between his teeth. I watch as he licks the stray caramel from his lips, and I wonder just how sweet he’d taste.

   “What was that?” He takes another bite.

   “Hmm?” Lord help me, but I stare. Watch his Adam’s apple bob and follow the movement down into his flannel shirt right where the tan skin disappears behind the fabric.

   He grabs a small plate and sets the rest of the apple down. “You just made a noise is all. Like a high-pitched sigh.”
   My face burns bright red. A sigh? I made a noise? “No. I don’t think so.”

   “Yeah, you did.” He grins. “Almost as if you’d enjoyed that as much as I did.”

Christmas and all the build up to it is my Favourite time of year, and i absolutely love all the feel good christmasy reads at this time. Christmas Candy is an absolute treat and i devoured it. The Cover will draw you in and the story will hold you there. It's a short second chance read that will give you all the warm happy feelings with some laughter. Just what the spirit of Christmas is for.

Olive is a Yoga teacher and runs her Health studio. After struggling in her younger years with her weight she's now at a place with herself that she feels comfortable. But being slim isn't the key to happiness and all though she is comfortable is she truly happy??? And when her high school crush returns back home and open's up a CANDY shop across from her yoga studio her limits are pushed!!!

Hank has return back home and opened his own CANDY store which is made even more better when he discovers who is just across the road from him. Olive the girl he wanted in high school but never had the guts to tell her. But his return just seems to be rubbing Olive up the wrong way.

Hank is just as enticing as the sweet treats he makes in his shop. Can Olive resist this sweet temptation!! 
Christmas Candy is a delicious novella with the perfect combination of ingredients to make it a beautiful sweet, festive read. 
It is quirky, fun and put a smile on my face. It has laugh out loud moments as well as some seriously hot sweet action.
I would Highly Recommend this read and author so grab your favourite sweet treat, get comfortable and lose yourself in this festive read.
