My name is Maya and I'm addicted to sweet romance novels. Or at least that's the reason my best friend gave as to why she's staging an intervention. Now, instead of getting lost in fictional love stories, I'm knee-deep in a real one. Kind of. For twenty-eight days, I've agreed to put my books down and open myself up to actual romance. But between my full-time job as a secret reviewer of chocolate-based foods and my determination to avoid falling back into my favorite fictional series, I hardly have time to entertain the idea of love. Yet somehow, two very different men have managed to slip past my defenses. One is bold and ambitious, the kind of guy who knows exactly what he wants. The other is reserved, a quiet presence who lets his creations do the talking. Both are tempting in their own way. I thought I knew exactly what I was looking for. I thought this challenge would prove whether real-life romance could ever compare to the perfection of a well-written love story. But now? I'm starting to wonder if I've been looking in the wrong place entirely. I am finding that love isn't just about being open to it. It's about connecting with the one person who makes the journey to love more delicious. Will I find someone who replaces my craving for sweet romance novels the way chocolate satisfies my sweet tooth? Or will I be left craving something that doesn't exist?
