After a very unhappy experience being the “walk on the wild side” for a guy, Brandon Williams throws himself into his work as an erotic chocolatier.  He’s determined not to make the same mistake again.  Then he meets David Sterling, the man of honor for a wedding he is making candy for.

David is instantly attracted to the sexy candy maker, but the man is standoffish toward him.  David’s best friend Chris, the bride, isn’t having any of that.  She’s determined to get the two together.  What will win out—Brand’s fears or Chris and David’s hopes?

Bittersweet is a cute, quick read.  Brand and David are both likeable characters, despite Brand’s tendency to judge people by their appearances.  Pushy bride Chris, and Brand’s friend and employee, Shirlee, were fun secondary characters whose meddling and advice helped the men as they fumbled their way forward.  The resolution is quick and pretty simple, but enjoyable nonetheless.  If you’re looking for a fast, fun read with an ending as sweet as Brandon’s chocolate, Bittersweet is a good choice.
