The Chocolate Rose (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781484157152)

Her father's worst enemy... Top chef Gabriel Delange never forgave his old nemesis Pierre Manon for all the other chef had cost him. One stolen rose... And he most certainly couldn't stand the sight of his own most famous dessert, the legendary Rose, claimed as Pierre's own on the cover of his new cookbook. A beast's substitute victim... But even Gabriel could hardly go through with a lawsuit when he learned the older chef had just had a stroke. Especially not when Pierre had one very cute daughter willing to be Gabriel's victim instead. A fascinated beauty... As a child, Jolie Manon had seen her family torn apart by her top chef father's obsession with his work. As a food writer, she might be fascinated with a chef's work, but she knew how to guard her heart. She would never allow another chef into her life. Unless he blackmailed her into it... Welcome to the heat and sun of Provence, where jasmine and roses climb up old colored walls, where fountains play in ancient stone villages, and where even a beast can prove he is a prince at heart... Praise for Laura Florand and her novels: "I adored this story...Paris, chocolate, and romance, all in one hilarious package." -New York Times bestelling author Eloisa James "Sensuous and sumptuous...a mouth-watering tale of slow-burning passion..." -- RT Book Reviews Readers will devour this frothy, fun novel.-Booklist
