About this ebook

Chocolate Box Girls: Cherry Crush is the first of five in this addictive series by Cathy Cassidy.

Cherry Costello's life is about to change forever.

She and Dad are moving to Somerset where a new mum and a bunch of brand-new sisters await. And on Cherry's first day there she meets Shay Fletcher - the kind of boy who should carry a government health warning. But Shay already has a girlfriend, Cherry's new stepsister, Honey. Cherry knows her friendship with Shay is dangerous - it could destroy everything. But that doesn't mean she's going to stay away from him...

Ratings and reviews

Cherry Costello is moving, to Somerset, To a new family, new sisters and a new life. She starts off well with the Tanberry's, Skye, Summer and Coco adore her. But Honey doesn't. Honey is cool, model-girl cute and dangerous. Cherry meets Shay, a cool boy with floppy hair and green eyes. But Shay has a girlfriend, Honey and Cherry knows that her friendship with Shay is difficult and should be avoided. Honey thinks Cherry is invading then, pushing in and replacing her. So Honey is icy towards her. Skye, Summer and Coco, they act as if Cherry has been their sister forever. But still lies drip off Cherry's tongue. Can Cherry fit in and tell the truth? Find out in the first sumptious book of the Chocolate Box Girls series.

This book was very good and i was drawn into it as the chapters went on but was thrown off by the abrupt ending, i hoped cathy would bring out another book, kind of a carry on story but i havent seen anything, i think this story needs to be carried on in the future

Cathy has really out done herself on this novel. Ot is brilliant but sadly comes to an abrubt ending. Despite this it earns 5 stars from me xxx :-)
