A Little About The Bride Wore Chocolate:
As the wedding approaches, Candace’s life is further complicated by a thrill-seeking grandma and a nosy mother track record rivals Elizabeth Taylor’s. She attempts to drown her sorrows in chocolate, but with a sexy bachelor appearing on her doorstep at every turn – she finds herself wondering if there’s enough of the sweet stuff in the world to stop her heart from racing every time he comes near.
Shirley sold her first book to Silhouette Romance in 2001. That novel, THE VIRGIN’S PROPOSAL, won the Booksellers’ Best Award for Best Traditional Romance of 2003. Two of her subsequent books were finalists in the Golden Quill Awards and two others were finalists in the Madcap Awards for best romantic comedy. She is also a Reviewers’ Choice Award winner. Shirley has sold twenty-six novels and now writes stories for Harlequin/Silhouette and Kensington Books about love, family and food the three most important things in her life (though, there are many days when the order is reversed), using that English degree everyone said would be so useless. She also writes for Harlequin NeXt.
