The Chocolate Wars

The Very Best of Everything Comes From the Heart. The Chocolate Wars: A battle for the hearts and sweet tooths of the good citizens of Green Cove. Lance Buchanan knows he'll take the ribbon, his secret weapon baked right in. Rosalie Quillen knows she'll raise the royal ribbon, her secret weapon brewed right in. To win, they both need a pinch of chocolate, a dash of spice, a teaspoon of competition, and a healthy splash of heat. An excerpt from The Chocolate Wars: “Please try it and let me know what you think. What you really think.” Rosalie’s runaway mouth had decided to cut her a break, and she sounded almost human, at least to her own ears. Lance raised the mug to his lips. Took a sip. Then a drink. Then a gulp. She imagined she’d had that same blissfully unaware of anything else in the world look when she’d tried his pecan tart. Pride and a little something else lit in her belly for putting that expression on his face.
