    About this series

    In Benevolence, Washington, the Lamont family's luscious handmade chocolates are a beloved tradition-and the sweetest of comforts. And for the most reserved of the three Lamont sisters, they're a much-needed way to challenge the past, rekindle hope-and make happiness for a lifetime.

    Caring family and friends, tranquil streets-ex-prosecutor Willow Lamont wishes these could make her feel truly at home. She's back to help her grandfather manage Chocolate Haven, a long held dream come true. But she's struggling to make their unique fudge-and to cope with a secret trauma that haunts her. Yet when she finds an abandoned baby who breaks her heart wide open, she wonders how long she can hide her emotions-especially from warm, handsome, and way too nosey Deputy Sheriff Jax Gordon.

    Always an outsider, Jax knows more than he should about loss. But he didn't expect his difficult search for baby "Miracle's" mother would reveal such a vulnerable side to the accomplished, beautiful woman he's always admired. Earning Willow's trust is the hardest thing he's ever had to do. Yet between her honesty and courage, he's longing to fill her life with rekindled joy-and a forever of irresistible love.

      In Benevolence, Washington, the Lamont family's irresistible handmade chocolates are a cherished tradition-and always a reason to celebrate. And now they're giving the three Lamont sisters, one by one, delicious chances to start again, make a change, and have their sweetest dreams come true . . . Neighbors who care, a peaceful routine-accountant Adeline Lamont is glad some things about her beloved hometown never change. But when her grandfather is injured, she has to run the family store, Chocolate Haven, and make its legendary fudge. Trouble is, she can't get the recipe right to save her life-or Chocolate Haven. And she doesn't need her ornery new tenant, Sinclair Jefferson, stirring up the pot with his help-and daring Addie to taste her wild side . . . Once Sinclair gets his hapless brother back on track, he's leaving Benevolence for good this time. He's made his life far away from his irresponsible family and their scandals. Trouble is, he can't quite stay away from Addie's optimism, enticing plus-size curves, and kindness to those who need it most. But they don't seem to have a thing in common-except that Addie's passion for chocolate, and for Benevolence, is just as contagious as Sinclair's passion for her. Maybe small-town life has its charms after all . . .
