"As good as the first book in the Kiss and Tell series!"

This is Book 2 in the Kiss and Tell mini-series and it's every bit as good if not better than the first one.

This one tells Reilly Chudowski's story. Reilly was known as Chubby Chuddy in her teens and she decided then and there she'd do something about it so she lost weight, went to college and then with the money she inherited from her grandmother opened, of all things, a pastry shop called Sugar 'n Spice. She also avoids any guy who looks like he could have been most popular guy or star football player or anything like that.

Then her shop and Ben Kane's restaurant are linked together in the newspaper. Ben has just lost his pastry chef so he decides to check Reilly's shop out. Reilly is simply stunned. This is the guy who is linked with models and all the 'right' people and he's in her shop. What's a girl to do? Then he asks her out! Can it get any better or is that worse than this?

Suddenly small things start going wrong in Ben's restaurant, like orders getting mixed up and the power getting cut off. What can this mean? Can Ben and Reilly figure it out before something dreadful happens?

I believe so far this is my favorite in this series. It is hot and sexy and has a bit of a mystery thrown in for good measure. Also Reilly's 15 year old niece Efi is just adorable. Now I'm ready for the third story in the series. It can't get here fast enough for me!
