BLURB:
Valentine’s
Day is chocolatier Chloe San Valentino’s favorite day of the year. Not only is
it the busiest day in her candy shop, Caramelle de Chloe, but it’s also her
birthday. Chloe’s got a birthday wish list for the perfect man she pulls out
every year: he’d fall in love with her in a heartbeat, he’d be someone who
cares about people, and he’d have one blue eye and one green eye, just like
her. So far, Chloe’s fantasy man hasn’t materialized, despite the matchmaking
efforts of her big, close-knit Italian family. But this year for her big 3-0
birthday, she just might get her three wishes.

My Review:
It 's a sweet, passionate and romantic story, the perfect reading for Valentine's Day.
Chloe was born on Valentine's Day in a very large Italian family. They were a very close family until her father has gone home with his new young girlfriend pregnant. Chloe is a chocolatier, has a very famous shop and the day of her birthday is also the busiest day of the year. She finds a diary written when she was fifteen years in which lists three characteristics of her ideal man. He must have one green eye and one blue like her to not be the only freak who she knew, to be a healer and must love with her at first sight. A few days before Valentine enters into her shop a beautiful and really sexy guy. He has one blue eye and one green! But most likely he is already committed. The genie of the desires is striving to realize her desires late or is a mere coincidence?
It 's a short and light reading but very addictive and a total page-turner. The main character is very funny, ironic and witty, the story is narrated by her in the first person and has made the reading truly enjoyable and entertaining.
I recommend it to those who love romance

EXCERPT:
The man had been a hunk-a-doodle when he’d been in my shop.
Right now he looked like sex on a candy stick. Tall, lithe, wide shouldered and
narrow hipped in his scrubs. He was every fantasy I’d ever had about what my
man would look like. He stood in the doorway of the waiting room and stared at
me.
And I stared right back.
“I assume she’s your mother,” he said, hooking his thumb in
the general direction behind him.
I nodded.
He grinned and my toes curled up at the tips.
“She’s a force to be reckoned with.”
I winced and replied, “She means well.”
Even to my ears it sounded more like a weak question than a
declaration.
His grin spread and I swear my girlie parts quivered.
Quivered.
When he came toward me, eating up the floor with his long
stride, a hot bead of awareness burst from somewhere deep, deep down inside me.
