Ellie Sanchez wants revenge. Spurned during her school days at the prestigious Monty’s academy when she was plain Eleanor Finch and played second fiddle to her idol, Barnaby Westwood, and his show-off sister, Clementine, Ellie will stop at nothing to turn the tables now she’s all grown up. The siblings and their snubbing have been the catalyst for everything that’s gone wrong in her life, from parental neglect to her divorce.
When the Westwood travel merchandise company advertises for a new HR manager, Ellie decides her unique combo of karma and Law of Attraction has finally come good. And she’ll be bagging herself a cherry-on-the-cake, second, and richer, husband in the process - once Barnaby sees how much she’s changed, anyway.
Fast forward six months, and he STILL doesn’t recognise her!
Fast forward six months, and the company is in a financial mess.Last Chance Saloon-style, Ellie coerces the siblings and their older sister, Brooke (the perpetual spanner in her works) to a rustic gîte in Normandy for a spot of team-building… over a very ‘special’ box of artisan chocolates.
Cue ALL the fireworks in the cocoa bean version of Jumanji...

My thoughts on The Chocolate Box by Isabella May
The Chocolate Box (Foodie Romance Journey) by Isabella May is quite a fun, unique book.
First off, let’s talk about that cover. It’s so beautiful and scrumptious it makes you long for your own box of chocolates—many compliments to the cover artist.
Next, the story is hard to talk about without spoilers. I would classify the book as more of a revenge trope than a classic romantic comedy, even though there are many laugh-out-loud moments. Sibling rivalries and childhood hurts enter into the mix too.
The characters are well-drawn, the pace is perfect for me, and the story has enough twists and mystery to keep you turning the pages.
This is the first Isabella May book I’ve read, but it won’t be the last. I plan to start with more in the Foodie Romance Journey series. It’s my belief most readers of romantic fiction will find this story to their liking.
I read this book for a blog tour but obtained my copy from Kindle Unlimited.
