Summary: A sensory experience
Review: Four of the romance genre's hottest authors have provided tales to this well-written anthology using HOT CHOCOLATE as a theme.In Suzanne Forster's "Not Abigail!" multi-billionaire Max Gallagher gives his mousy assistant Abigail two weeks to find him a wife. She loves her boss, but it takes her friend's hot chocolate laced with a love potion for her to show him how she feels. Readers will not need a love potion to enjoy this story. "Tangled Sheets" by Lori Foster stars Cole Winston, owner of a tavern. The only woman he finds interesting, Sophie, orders a hot chocolate at his establishment every night. She is too repressed to go after him so she invents a twin Shelly who goes after Cole. They spend a night of passion together, but Sophie flees when she realizes Cole knows who she really is. No repression for fans who will relish Ms. Foster's fine tale. Category superstar Elda Minger contributes a very romantic tale in "Buried In her Heart." Attorney Abby wants to be a chef. Jack is opening up a California bistro that badly needs a gourmet chef. They meet while rescuing a cat together. They soon learn they are staying at the same place. He offers her a job and more, but will she have the courage to go after the two things she desires most in life? Famous Loveswept author Fayrene Preston completes the book with the lovely "Ecstasy." Brenna's fudge is the rage and tycoon Hayden wants to mass produce it. He also wants Brenna, but how does he prove his love to her? This Valentine's Day collection is a hot drink on that cold wintry day. Harriet Klausner

Summary: HOT, Sexy read
Review: HOT CHOCOLATE is one of the most sexy and arousing romance anthology I have ever read. The steam did not fizzled out halfway like many I have read. Suzanne Forster torched the flame with her story "Not Abigail" about a secretary in love with her boss, Max Gallagher and concocting a potion of love and chocolate to reveal her true feelings. Lori Foster snowballed the sass and fantasies with an engaging tale, "Tangled sheets" when Cole Winston is caught into deception by Sophie. Shelly is her invented identity, who is so sexy and irresistible that Cole finds himself in a struggle in his love for Sophie without knowing both of them are the same person. Elda Minger comes up smoldering hot for this one. Her story involves a hot passion between Attorney Abby and a chef Jack who is onto opening a restaurant. Abby decides for herself between the one she loves and her job. All this heated desires in this anthology ends with a pleasant climax in Ms. Preston's story between Brenna and the rich Hayden. HOT CHOCOLATE is unlike any anthology you have seen because the stories are constantly engaging and sexy. With so much zest and scintillating sensuality, they will keep you warm over a hot cup of chocolate. If you looking for something poignant and heavy, skip this one because this is seductive pleasure at its best.

Summary: A MUST BUY ROMANCE BOOK!
Review: I LOVE anthologies (if they are well written), hey, three or four stories for the price of one! And this one is very well written. All of the stories are great, but one stands out to me and that's Suzanne Forster's "Not Abigail". This is truly chicken soup for those of us who are "romantically-challanged". In a humorous, yet sympathatic way Abigail represents everything women have gone (and are going) through. I adore and admire this woman. If Suzanne Forster is reading any of this, please keep it up, girl! I LOVED this story and would like to see more. This is a keeper!

Summary: Lori Foster you're hard to locate but well worth it.
Review: I loved this book and have read it a few times but I always wanted to know what happened to the Winston brothers who were left. Found out what happened to Chase accidently in another book of short stores called "Charmed". It was great too but what about the last two brothers? Anybody know what book their stories are in? The last two seemed even more promising and I get hooked on characters.

Summary: I found some wonderful writers I hadn't heard of before
Review: I must say that I thoroughly enjoyed the first two stories in this book, especially Tangled Sheets by Lori Foster! I have reread that story many a time! Because I enjoyed the story so much I surfed this site to find other books of hers and ordered some. The same with Suzanne Forster. The preview at the end of Hot Chocolate made me want to read it. The third story in this book was alright, but a little bland and didn't keep my attention. I will look for her other books to see is she has something I would enjoy more. The last story was good and I enjoyed reading. Overall, this book was great. But as I said before, Tangled Sheets was the best.

Summary: Hot Chocolate is Yummy!
Review: I thoroughly enjoyed this book! "Not Abigail!" by Suzanne Forster was a delight. To be the loyal assistant, completely invisible, who vamps into the perfect wife and lover - what a dream come true! Lori Foster's "Tangled Sheets" is also wonderful! Will you be surprised by what Sophie's twin sister pulls off? Like the hero, Cole, says hot chocolate won't be the same (after this read)! Sadly, these two stories outshine the remaining two, which are quick, by slow, reads.

Summary: finally a short story format that works.
Review: I'm generally not a fan of anthologies, I feel they usually sell the stories short and only gloss over the character and plot depth for want of space. I'm pleased to say this book didn't feel like that at all. 4 story submissions and only one didn't grab me by the heart. They were all sweet, and hot. The heros were adorable and the situations ... well, I wouldn't go so far as to say they were realistic, but I happily suspended my disbelief for 80 pages. I'd definitely recommend this for light, happy reading.

Summary: There's nothing like chocolate - mixed with romance!
Review: Like great chocolate, this anthology is a fabulous treat. I couldn't tell you which was my favorite, although I just love the way Lori Foster writes heros and Suzanne Forster's humor. This book is everything chocolate should be - lucious, tempting, satisfying and just a touch wicked! You will not be disappointed by this collection. It leaves you wanting more!
