The Bride Wore Chocolate
The Bride Wore Chocolate fr Shirley Jump, is the first novel i bought.
Candace Woodrow was getting married in three weeks and for someone who was detail oriented - planning everything down to the minutest detail, fate seemed to be conspiring against her. Were these all `signs’ as her wacky grandmother kept telling her that this was wedding shouldn’t take place - like the dress shop burning down with her bridal gown; the priest running off with the church secretary; or the cheap labels falling off the wedding invitations? Or was it fate weaving it’s treacherous fingers in her life that found her waking up in a strange hunk’s bed after a night of over imbibing too many cocktails and then find said `hunk’ constantly turning up in her life and distracting her from the course she had set her mind on? Then fate must have had a very weird sense of humor.
Fate must have had a hand in putting Candace Woodrow in Michael Volgers face as well, because this confirmed bachelor couldn’t seem to put her out of his mind as well. Candace was so different from any of the society debs he’d dated so far and just maybe he was going to reevaluate his stance on bachelorhood now that he’d had a taste of `Candy’.
At first glance, THE BRIDE WORE CHOCOLATE is another "bride-to-be falls for her one true love-and it’s not the groom" story. If you come to that conclusion from reading the back blurb of the book, you’d be correct. But-and it’s a huge but-this story is that and so much more. And it’s the so much more that makes this book well worth reading.
