Wickedly fun read, the sensuality of food in this story leaves you hungry for more. You feel for Dana as she is trying to find herself and this new venture has a lot to do with reinventing her life and being happy with the outcome. The chemistry between Trevor and Dana is sizzling, I really enjoyed this read.
“The sign on the door to Decadent Delights read, “Mature shoppers only. Anyone under eighteen not allowed.” Can you imagine seeing a candy shop with a disclaimer like that?
From the first paragraph until the end I was hooked. I mean how many women could turn down chocolate and a hot man in the same story? The tale started off at a fast pace and did not let up until the end. What I found so entertaining was that Trevor Stanford, the owner of Trevor’s Treasure, the other candy store in town, was Dana’s competitor. I thought it was going to make for a shaky relationship. Instead, they were both smitten when their eyes met while Dana was doing a sexy dance around a chocolate figure of a naked man.
It was intriguing watching Dana working through her trust issues, and the uncomfortable sensation she got at first when dealing with Trevor. When Trace, Trevor’s twin brother shows up, Dana dreams of the two men modeling for her and a little bit more. I can't put my finger on just why, but Trace ended up not being one of my favorite characters. There was something about his personality that I didn’t like and even though he looked like his brother he was so different from Trevor. There were a few places I had to back track to make sure that Trace was Trace, and Trevor was Trevor, because in a few places Trace would pretend to be his brother to try and trick Dana.
I love this story. When you mix chocolate, men, and hot sex you can be sure to have a very entertaining book that is worth every minute spent reading it. Decadent Delights has a delicious plot that will make a reader wonder if the characters will get a happy ending or if something will drive them apart. There were some hot sex scenes and the story was a easy read with great editing resulting in one of those cute and relaxing tales. Don’t miss out on Decadent Delights because the title doesn't even cover all the sweet treasures inside for your entertainment.
Gail DeYoung does a fabulous job of keeping Dana on the straight path (no matter what her mind secretly wants) while keeping us blushing from the hot and steamy love scenes. Trace finally shows his true colors, alas, it’s at Trevor’s expense. True to his nature, Trevor does his best to make up for his brother’s shortcomings and offers a compromise that Dana can’t resist. I wouldn’t either!
Overall, I liked the story. My only problem with it was that Dana never did come clean and admit to Trevor just exactly how close she and Trace had gotten. If Dana and Trevor are ever going to have a successful future together, that’s gonna have to be talked about in depth. I forsee trouble in the form of Trace trying to once again ruin Trevor’s love life.

Decadent Delights was a fun read. It was pretty short. Trevor rubs Dana the wrong way at first but he makes up for it. Trevor is charming and grows on you pretty fast. Dana I liked from the very beginning. They start dating and building a relationship. Trace, Trevor's twin comes back and starts causing problems. He does not want them to be together because he wants Trevor to do something else, for him. Trace is a selfish person. Dana does not know what is going on at first between them but starts to figure some things out.
There is plenty of emotion in this story though it is not deep at first. There is also plenty of explicit sex in this story. Dana and Trevor have a lot of chemistry and lust. It is hot and enjoyable to read. They are a bit adventureous in their sexual escapades. The dialogue is good also.
