Rocky Road Dreams: A Christmas Novel (The Candy Beach Series Book 5) Kindle Edition by Cecelia Dowdy


 Book Excerpt:

"♥The Candy Beach Series ♥

Melanie used to be in love with Kyle's identical twin. Could she really have feelings for Kyle - or does she like him because he reminds her of his brother?

Lawyer Kyle Baxter had a secret crush on Melanie Richards for years, but she was smitten with his identical twin brother, Keith. So recently sober, he takes a Christmas-time hiatus from his law firm. Instead, he rents a beach house - right across the street from Melanie. As he uncovers secrets about his past, he's determined to learn more about his mother, who died when he was a baby.

Obese as a child, Melanie Richards is now slender and beautiful. She owns an herbal health food store. However, having her own business comes with a high price. Her uncle agrees to finance her shop as long as she decides to mentor Chloe, her drunken, wayward, 21-year-old cousin. Chloe's erratic behavior wreaks havoc in Melanie's life. Can a Christmas road trip help them solve Kyle's and Chloe's problems? Is Melanie attracted to Kyle because he resembles his twin, or does she love Kyle for himself?"

Review:
"Rocky Road Dreams" by Cecelia Dowdy

My Assessment:

"Rock Road Dreams" was another of this author's good reads. The read goes right along with the rest of the series. The story was very inspiring that will keep one turning the pages to see what was coming next for Kyle and Melanie. It felt for Kyle as he was trying to work with his struggle with alcoholism as Melanie was working with her weight and job problems and her family conflicts with her uncle and cousin. While the story continues with Kyle having had feelings for Melanie, would she be able to comply with his feelings for him after she finds out more about his struggles? It was so good to see Kyle now having a relationship with his twin brother as he tries to work his problem. And whr\at all comes out after Kyle goes through his mother's things? Will Kyle and his brother Kevin get the answers they wanted about their mother? Yes, we all have 'faults and weaknesses,' but what will happen when it all comes out? Will Melanie and Kyle finally get their HEA?
To get the inside of this beautiful story, one will have to pick up this good read and see how well this author brings it all out. So be ready for a good read in the midwest blizzard, which will have decisions that will be made along with eating some sweet chocolate candy.

In the story...there was a mention of Kyle making 'Rocky Road Dreams,' which was candy...and I bet it was as good as it sounded!
