Today I am starting a week of celebration leading up to the release day for Tara Sivec’s final book in her spinoff series, Chocoholics.\u00a0 I have been an uber fan of hers ever since I picked up my first copy of Seduction and Snacks<\/em>.\u00a0 I have read all of these books multiple times and have quoted them to friends many times over.\u00a0 But, I have never reviewed them.\u00a0 So, starting today I will have a review of one of her books in these two series’ until Friday, October 30th when we will celebrate with champagne, cupcakes and tears her final book of this series, Baking\u00a0& Babies<\/em>.\u00a0\u00a0 Today though we will start at the beginning with Seduction and Snacks<\/em>!\u00a0 In this book we meet the most awesome bitches (total compliment) I have ever had the pleasure reading about.\u00a0 Be sure to keep reading for my full review after the book blurb.\u00a0 Come back every day to keep the celebration going!<\/p>\n

\"23016317\"<\/a>Book Blurb:<\/h2>\n

Claire is a twenty-something, single mom that grudgingly helps her best friend sell sex toys while she attempts to make enough money to start her own business to give her foul-mouthed, but extremely loveable (when he’s asleep) toddler a better life.
\nWhen Carter, the one-night-stand from her past that changed her life forever, shows up in her hometown bar without any recollection of her besides her unique chocolate scent, Claire will make it a point that he remembers her this time.
\nWith Carter’s undisguised shock at suddenly finding out he has a four-year-old son and Claire’s panic that her stretch marks and slim to none bedroom experience will send the man of her dreams heading for the hills, the pair will do whatever they can to get their happily ever after.
\nWarning: contains explicit sex, profanity and enough sarcasm to choke a horse.<\/p>\n

Review:<\/h2>\n

Claire did the one thing she swore she’d never do…have a kid.\u00a0 She despised kids, but now she has one thanks to a drunken night where virginity was lost and the guy’s name never gotten.\u00a0 While Claire had to drop out of college and work at a bar to support herself and her kid, her best friend has been plotting how they two of them could make their dreams come true and run a business together.\u00a0 After a lot of pushing, Claire agrees to help Liz with her start up business.\u00a0 What she doesn’t realize is that its selling sex toys.\u00a0 When Claire has an embarrassing sex toy party and goes to work after what she doesn’t expect is to run into the one man that changed her life forever….her baby’s daddy.\u00a0 From here Claire’s life takes one crazy turn after another.\u00a0 Its full of a potty mouthed four year old, baking her favorite goodies, sex toys, crazy friends and one hot man that she doesn’t want to keep her hands, mouth or her vagina off of him.
\nThis book was the one that got me hooked.\u00a0 I literally laughed out loud so many times people probably thought I was nuts.\u00a0 The characters are so real, especially Claire’s son Gavin.\u00a0\u00a0 When he is saying inappropriate things he reminds me of my son and the crazy things that continually come out of his mouth.\u00a0\u00a0 The relationship between her and LIz is enviable.\u00a0 I think every woman wants to have that person.\u00a0 That person who would be in jail with you saying we have to do that again.\u00a0 This was the beginning of a great series that just keeps getting better, but I am not going to spill anything else from the other books…yet.\u00a0 I think the best way to describe this book is…”fuck me\u00a0gently with a chainsaw”\u00a0 :).\u00a0 Yes, I just totally stole that quote from this book!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
