------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
“Love is the emotional chocolate of the universe.” Actually, successful chocolatier Brenda Lockheart deals with the sweet brown confection lots better than she does with love. For years she’s been in love with Keith Tarrant, her best friend with benefits. As her thirtieth birthday approaches, hot lovemaking and intense friendship no longer satisfy her. She demands more. It’s time to make a commitment or say good-bye. Keith goes along at first, and she’s hopeful. But as her birthday gets closer, her relationship with Keith hits snags.

Keith loves Brenda and can’t bear to lose her, but he’s got lots of unresolved baggage and a history of being less than she deserves. Though he’ll try to get over his issues in time to make her birthday special, when a new roadblock arises, he’s out of his depth. Can Keith man up and commit to Brenda in time? Or will their relationship crumble and turn her into one more of his many exes?

5.0 out of 5 stars Fun, Light, and Sexy August 28, 2012

It's a sexy novella, perfect for a quiet night or afternoon.

What happens when the guy gets cold feet, but knows she's the woman for him? That passage to commitment is huge, but he's got to do it. Then comes the uh-oh! There's got to be more than chemistry between them, even if the chemistry is terrific.

She's not going to give in or let him con her one more time with smooth lines. When everything goes wrong, she's going to stand her ground. Maybe. It's so hard to walk away when he's the right one. She's going to turn thirty, and she wants more than what he's willingly given her.

More About the Author

By day she's a mild-mannered language teacher, but after hours, Mardi Ballou's wild writer persona erupts and entraps her in bondage...to her computer. Release comes only once she achieves her word count goal, at which point the maniacal chocolate monster will give her one sublime piece. And then she can spend time with her hero husband Lee, who gives great massages at strategic times. So Mardi writes what she knows-- romances--hot and mainstream--for the indie press March Forth and for numerous other publishers. Also women's fiction. Her most recent releases are Deja Brew in e-book format for Ellora's Cave and, in print from Ellora's Cave Perfect Pear in the Ripe and Ready anthology. The Fangly, My Dear series--Byte Marks, What's a Ghoul to Do?, and Playing with Matches is in print from Samhain. Check out Mardi at http://www.MardiBallou.com.
