Summary: fun anti-Atkins contemporary romance
Review: In Seattle, Kat Roth is the CEO of Roth Confectionary while her former husband Mark Denham heads up rival Denham Candy Company. Mark's cousin Fritz informs Kat that her father hired him as a community affairs advisor and he plans to get right to work though she asks him to cool his jets. Kat knows that Fritz is a walking disaster and hopes to get rid of him without hurting the well intended man.

Fritz persuades Mark and Kat to co-host a charity event, Kandy for Kids, by playing the rivalry between the two like a concert pianist. As Mark and Kat work on the charity campaign, their love that never died resurfaces. However, will Mark, who has missed his Kat since she dumped him two years ago, convince her that they belong together? A "betrayal" will make it even more difficult to achieve his objective.

This anti-Atkins contemporary romance should not be read on an empty stomach because the audience will suffer from sugar attacks. The second chance at love story line stars two wonderful characters and a horde of eccentric support characters who lovingly interfere with the lead duet. Sweet caring Mark will melt readers while bitter tart Kat receives less empathy. Yet together, fans will enjoy the tasty dessert headlined by the combating candy CEOs.
