About this ebook

If you mention honor or affluence in Greybrook, Montana, thoughts immediately go to the Shane family, owners of the Montezuma Revenge Cattle Ranch. Daughter, thirty-five-year-old Candy Shane, was off creating her own dynasty and succeeded tremendously. A world-renowned chef with two popular TV shows, a line of cook and dinnerware and seven restaurants around the world, she's got a life others dream about. But they don't know the real Candy. The one who has saved herself for a marriage that never happened. The one who believes a man would never fall in love with a woman who weighs over two hundred pounds unless they were after her fortune. 
When Candy receives news her father has suffered from a debilitating stroke and is unable to run the ranch, she heads home. Though she's happy to help, she loves her life and plans to return to the real world the moment he is back on his feet.
Blaine Westland's family has worked for the Shane's for generations. The ranch foreman, he rode motorcycles and horses, breaking hearts everywhere he went. Except for one. He'd loved Candy since he was a boy, but she was always off limits. His father had said he wasn't good enough for her, and Blaine knew he was right. But when he sees Candy for the first time in ten years, she takes his breath away. She's more beautiful and vivacious than he remembered. He wants her. Bad. But he's still out of her league and must keep his distance. Until he learns she's remained a virgin and vows to win her heart, to treat her the way she deserves. He wants to be her first and her last and hopes to turn a temporary visit into a permanent one.
Candy can see things getting quickly out of hand with the gorgeous, rugged Blaine. But she knows he has a reputation with the ladies. Why would someone like him be attracted to her? The wall she's built around her heart is falling fast and if she wants to protect herself, she needs to get out of Kenansville quick. 
A Taste of Candy, by popular romance author Leila Lacey, is a standalone novel. This is classic boy-meets-girl, girl-runs-from-boy at its finest. Sweet, hot, and racy, it focuses on a sympathetically flawed heroine who must overcome deep insecurities if she is to ever find true love and everlasting happiness.

Author

Leila Lacey

Love comes in many shapes and sizes.  Rising Michigan Author Leila Lacey writes from the heart about the trials and tribulations of love and romance from a plus size woman’s perspective.  With over 12 popular books on Amazon to date, she’s steadily claiming her space as a new romantic fiction author to keep an eye on. Bow down to the curves.  That’s the philosophy that’s motivated romantic fiction author Leila Lacey as she’s wrote over a dozen popular books taking a hot and exciting look at love and adventure from a strong, curvy woman’s viewpoint.  The books have been received with enthusiasm, and it’s clear the best is yet to come for these BBW romances (Big Beautiful Woman). “I think it’s important to present strong, beautiful, curvy women that have amazing female to female relationships,” commented Lacey, on what motivates her.  “If we don’t provide alternative role models for people, they could fall into the trap of not loving who is looking them back in the mirror.  Romantic fiction should entertain, but it should also help build confidence and a great self-image.  I’m trying to cover all these things and more in my books.” According to the author, Lacey had a quite unexpected entry into writing.  Although always interested in being a writer she never explored her skills fully until being convinced to join a writing contest.  Within 30 days she had finished her first novel, won the contest, and never looked back.  An example of a woman with confidence proving to herself, and the world, what can be accomplished when dreams are pursued actively. Some of her most popular books in the plus size women genre include:  Phoenix Rising;  A Very Curvy Christmas; Dr. Black’s Patient; Love’s Legacy; Shelby’s Awakening; and many, many more. Readers have responded to her work with enthusiasm.
