This book had all the things I love in a small
town romance, a sometimes feisty character
who could make me laugh, a little suspense
and mystery, and a hunky guy.
Benevolence, Wash so reminded me
of my small southern town,
that I instantly fell in love with it.
I, like Addie, love living and working
in a small town, so I could relate
to this side of her. I especially
loved Sinclair and his sweet/pushy
way of getting Addie to see that she
could stand up for herself without eing disloyal to her family. There's nothing so
sad as seeing a smart,
intelligent, hard working person
unable to say "NO"
to family members and friends. This
is probably the main thing that
kept me from totally enjoying
the book. I pretty much read
this book from cover
to cover in one sitting during our
first really big snow.
One warning though, make sure you are not
hungry while reading this book as the
chocolate descriptions alone will put on 10 pounds.
One addition that I think would have added
to this book would have been some chocolate
recipes at the end. Saw on Shirlee's blog that
she and her girls had been working on some family
recipes and this would have been an awesome
place to share.

While http://www.fantasticfiction.co.uk/
(my go to site for checking the correct sequence of series books)
lists Sweet Surprises and Sweet Haven as two separate series,
they contain the same town and family members, so I'm putting
them together. As a reader, I'm always wanting to know
when the next book in a series is due out. If I discover
later that this info (based on my suppositions) is incorrect,
I will correct it.
(I can see the ND/HB and gothic romance subtle influence in McCoy's writing and love that the books I cut my teeth on were important in her life, too!)
