Description
Chocolatier Emma Miller has a new business selling bonbons to
the residents of the quaint town of Wood Creek. When a tiny visitor
stops by her shop with an interesting request, Emma is intrigued. The
young girl needs chocolates that will help her widowed dad fall in love,
preferably with her teacher. What Emma didn't count on was Casey's ever
so charming and handsome dad, Grant, stepping into her life. She has to
remind herself to be cautious because the one thing she learned in
foster care is that people always leave.
Pilot Grant Galloway is touched by his daughter's gift and is curious about the person who made the world-class chocolates. But when he steps into Emma's shop full of delicious smells and tasty morsels, he forgets to breathe. And it has nothing to do with his favorite dessert. She's pretty and kind, and when she has to deal with a difficult client, his protective instincts kick into high gear. But he risked his heart once. When his wife died, it left him broken. He's just now beginning to pick up the pieces, and he and his daughter will be leaving town once the holidays are over.
Thanks to some Christmas wishes, though, these two might discover that their carefully laid plans are about to change. AMAZON LINK

This was a sweet and often emotional story that would be a good Christmas read. It would of course be good at other times as well.
Emma, Grant and his daughter Casey are good main characters. Grant's family is a tight one but they are also in their kind ways trying to tie Grant down to their town. I could understand it though because they loved him and wanted to have him and Casey remain closer to them. They also didn't really understand his need to fly. Something that his mother worried was way too dangerous. Grant was trying to untie the strings to his family and Emma was the opposite. She was looking for a permanent place of her own. A place she could put down roots and make more friends.
There is a H.E.A. but it almost felt anti-climactic after all the struggles. Although I'm glad it came to that conclusion, I just wasn't feeling it either. The ending just kind of felt like a rush to the end
