"...a book which should be devoured in one sitting, along with a box of chocolates"—Sophie Kinsella, #1 New York Times bestselling author

Award-winning author Jenny Colgan takes her charming romances to Paris in this heartwarming, bittersweet story of life, love and chocolate.

Anna Trent may be a supervisor in a chocolate factory...but that doesn't necessarily mean she knows how to make chocolate. So when a fateful accident gives her the opportunity to work at the most elite chocolatier in Paris—Le Chapeau Chocolat—Anna expects to be outed as a fraud.

After all, there is a world of difference between chalky, mass-produced English chocolate and the gourmet confections Anna's new boss creates. While she may never match him in the kitchen, Anna thinks she might be able to give him a second chance at love.

And with a bit of luck and a lot of patience, Anna's learning that the sweetest things in life are always worth working for.

Fans of British chick-lit authors Sophie Kinsella, Jennifer Weiner and Jill Mansell will be craving sweets along with this light-hearted rom-com of love lost and found.
