Donna Kauffman

4.21

A “deliciously sexy” series debut from the USA Today bestselling author of the Blue Hollow Falls romances—recipes included! (Carly Phillips, New York Times bestselling author).

Devil’s Food . . . Angel Cake . . . Red Velvet . . . Praline Crunch . . . Lemon Chiffon . . .

How's a woman to choose?

Luckily, the members of the Cupcake Club are about to taste it all . . .

When baker extraordinaire Leilani Trusdale left the bustle of New York City for Georgia’s sleepy Sugarberry Island, she didn’t expect her past to follow. Yet suddenly, her former boss, Baxter Dunne, aka Chef Hot Cakes, the man who taught her everything pastry, wants to film his hit cooking show in her tiny cupcakery. The same Chef Hot Cakes whose molten chocolate brown eyes and sexy British accent made Lani’s mouth water and her cheeks blush the color of raspberry filling—stirring all kinds of kitchen gossip, much of which Lani wished was true . . .

Lani’s friends are convinced that this time around, Baxter is the missing ingredient in her recipe for happiness. But convincing Lani will be a job for Baxter himself. And he’ll need more than black velvet frosting to sweeten the deal . . .

“As sweet and adorable as its namesake treat.”—Publishers Weekly (starred review)

“Like a rich chocolate ganache . . . Delightful.”—RT Book Reviews (4 STARS)

    ✔ Sugar Rush by Donna Kauffman 2★ (Cupcake Club: Book 1) Predictable. Too wordy. I had ended up skipping some (just a little bit though) because there was too many redundant topics. On and on and on. Also, I don't think I'll continue on with this series. The characters were just ok. The writing style I just didn't like. I picked this as January's challenge mainly because this was a chore to read. I love chick lit and romance books, but this was not my thing. Everything (feelings, thoughts, etc) was repeated over and over. This book was just pages of the same. I'd speed read through that and then turn the kindle page to find more of the same. I really don't like authors that do that. So yes, this was out of my comfort zone! oh also, I didn't pick this book as a out of my comfort zone book. I picked it as just a fluff read because I thought I'd like this. The plot and characters seemed like a story I would have liked. Another author, and I would have loved them. So this book just transgressed to the January challenge in the end.
