Bethanie recently reviewed Cindy Lynn Speer’s The Chocolatier’s Wife.

OK, leaving aside the fact that anything having to do with chocolate is almost automatically certain to be a hit with me, this really was a great story. Set in a world far, far away where marriages are ‘arranged’ by magic and one’s mate is usually determined when one is very young, the story consists partly of letters written back and forth between William and his ‘intended’, Tasmin. …Their letters to each other alone are a good enough reason to read the book. They are charming and cleverly written, not only because they subtly reveal the nature of each of the main characters, but also because they evolve through the story…

…[T]ouches of magic, mystery, and romance are deftly woven together into a memorable tale that I really didn’t want to end, since it meant leaving William and Tamsin’s world.
