I've started a new series of books called "Life in Icicle Falls" by Sheila Roberts. This series was recommended from a friend, she thought I would enjoy the books and she was right! I've started the first book in the series and its really interesting! I like the characters and the storyline about Sweet Dreams Chocolates ( the Chocolate Company that has been in the family for several generations ).
There is a small town feel to this book which I like, and the characters really draw you into the story.
The first book in this series is called "Better than Chocolate. There are 6 books in this series, with a book called "Welcome to Icicle Falls" numbered 0.5.
Book #7 in this series is scheduled to release July 28th, 2015.
Sweet Dreams Chocolate Company has been in the Sterling family for generations, ever since Great-Grandma Rose literally dreamed up her first fabulous recipe. But now it looks as if they're about to lose Sweet Dreams to the bank—and that would be a disaster, not only for the family but for the town of Icicle Falls, Washington. Can Samantha, the oldest daughter and new head of the company, come up with a way to save it?After Samantha does some brainstorming with her mother and sisters, inspiration strikes. They'll have a chocolate festival! Time's running out, but the Sterling women are determined and the town's behind them, so everything's bound to go smoothly….or not...

What new series have you started reading this month?
I've never heard of her and she sounds like she's really popular. What an amazing career she's had and then turn around and be a best selling author and have a series.
ReplyDeleteI'm really enjoying this book Maureen. =)

I LOVE this series. It's one of my favorites. I thought the The Lodge on Holly Road (Life in Icicle Falls, #6) was the best. Have you read that one yet?
