Just plain SWEET!!!

I love Janelle Dennison's books and this is no exception! What a sweet story in more ways than one!! Jack is one of the sweetest guys I have ever experienced in a romance novel and Kayla is a sweetheart of a woman who is very insecure about her shapely body. What a couple!! The story is really adorable and fun to read. The romance is hot and sweet!! Highly recommend to any romance junkie!!

Bravo!!! Excellent story...

Jack Tremaine is a rich bachelor constantly chased by money- hungry "model-type" women. He sees successful bakery owner, Kayla Thomas and can't get her off his mind. Kayla is very insecure about her shapely body and doesn't expect to ever see Jack again, when he does show up she decides he would be a perfect guinea pig for her experimental stimulating candies. Only problem is Jack's falling in love for real and Kayla thinks her candies (not her) are the cause. Even though this book was published in '03, author did a great job, obviously, because it still holds it's own and is a worthwhile read in '05.

A wonderful, sexy and sweet indulgence!

Another steamy, sexy, yummy tale from Janelle Denison! Kayla Thomas owns her own bakeshop and is experimenting with a new line of chocolates - but not just any chocolates - these are laced with an aphrodisiac! She just needs the perfect test subject to try them out on. Will they really stimulate a sexual response? And how much fun will it be testing it out with the right guy?!Jack Tremaine is the owner of one of the most popular restaurants in town and is in the process of opening a second. He has been so wrapped up in ensuring the success of his restaurant, and now launching the new one that he has spent little time dating - at least not seriously. And as one of the most eligible bachelors in town, he tends to attract shallow, vapid model-types that quite frankly bore him - like his date for the evening. He spots a gorgeous, voluptuous blond serving desserts at a Chamber of Commerce dinner and discovers that her shop catered the desserts for the event. She's a breath of fresh air - warm, sweet and curvy - and they flirt and have some serious chemistry. He suggests that he may want to hire her to revamp his dessert menu in his restaurant - a real coup for her and her business. When he shows up at the bakeshop to taste-test one of her dessert suggestions, she decides to also have him taste some of her aphrodisiac candies! He's a gorgeous, dark haired, blue-eyed hunk who is way out of her league (she's got serious body image issues ingrained by her mother and an ex-boyfriend), but if the candies have the desired effect, she may be able to have a little fantasy time with him! Well, if the steamy kiss they share in her shop is any indication, it looks like the candy works REALLY well! They begin an affair with Kayla always bringing a new flavour of candy for him to try each time that they are together. But is Jack's response driven by the aphrodisiac or by a real attraction to Kayla? And what happens when he discovers that she's been using him as a guinea pig? Was the whole thing the real thing or all an illusion?I loved this story, could identify with Kayla and her insecurities and found Jack to be a really sweet, sexy and nice guy. I wonder if a story will be coming to feature Kayla's former model sister Jillian and Jack's business partner Rich ! Very highly recommended!

Indulge Yourself With This Great Book!!!

Ms. Denison has penned another great story! I love Ms. Denison's stories because her characters are not "perfect" and this gives those of us that aren't perfect our own happy ending!Kayla Thomas is a full figured women who owns her own bakery. She meets Resturant owner Jack Termaine at a chamber of commerce get together. She is instantly attracted to the handsom Jack and thinks that the attraction is returned. That is until a perfect size 3 walks up and claims Jack as her own.Jack Termaine has been busy getting his business up and running he has not been giving much thought to his female companionship until he meets Kayla. Kayla takes his breath away and he is instantly drawn to the beautiful Kayla but she does not see herself the same way he does and he is fighting her past and self perception. He can wait though because she is exactly what he has been waiting for.This was a great read. The chemistry between the two main characters are great, her secondary charaters Jillian (Kayla's sister) and Rich (Jack's best friend) are great and I hope that they eventually get their own stories. The story line is great and I liked the fact that Ms. Denison tackled the problems that less then perfect figured women face. This book has made it to my keeper shelf!
