A delightful tale set in a small community in rural France, you are drawn in from the first page by the main character of the story Vianne Rocher.
An enchanting woman with many secrets she opens her controversial shop/cafe selling mouth-watering chocolate concoctions to the small village enticing some and angering others. Father Reynard sees her as a serious danger and distraction to his flock as Lent approaches. As the conflict escalates it becomes a Pagan versus the Church. Who wills out?
The descriptive imagery captivates you until the very last page.
A book to curl up with by firelight with a hot cup of chocolate.
Not to be missed
