by Violet Duke
FREEBIE
Contemporary Romance
Rating: 4.3
Chocolatier and town newcomer Luke Bradford loves his shop’s new home.

But to be fair, in his defense — Just kidding. He has no defense.
Brewmaster and town sweetheart Dani Dobson is declaring war against her hot, maddening new menace of a neighbor. And his shop. He absolutely started it. She’s just picking up the chocolate-covered gauntlet he unintentionally threw down. The terms? Her business versus his in the arena of romance. The stakes? Very likely, her heart.
