    Fun love story
  

*by C***R on Reviewed in the United States on March 16, 2023*

After reading book 1, this is a fun book to read. Cute love story to see how someone who has been hurt gets through the pain and can learn to love again.

    Chocolate plus gardening, some fairy magic, and a new book boyfriend. The Chocolate Garden ROCKS!
  

*by E***K on Reviewed in the United States on August 12, 2014*

One of the casualties of Country Heaven, the first Dare River book, was Rye Crenshaw's sister, Tammy and her two children. Remaking her life with him and Tori in Nashville is a bit scary, but quite exciting for this ever-so-proper Southern lady. Her evolution of inner freedom is a delight to read and the moment when her younger sister discusses cutting her hose to pieces, a revolutionary act like bra burning in the 70s, I was dissolving in laughter.For me, the centerpiece of The Chocolate Garden was Tammy's inner transformation from down-trodden, stiff-upper-lip, country club wife to a woman of passion and confidence. Each step, from cutting her hair to choosing new clothes is lovingly depicted by Miles. Her ability to convey the societal strictures that had bound Tammy so tightly were most convincing - as was her portrait of Tammy's mother.Tammy's children had captured my heart in Country Heaven and it was wonderful to see them spreading their little wings here.But J.P. McGuiness (John Parker McGuiness) was the one who walked away with my heart. Oh my goodness, Ava Miles, you just keep writing the best book boyfriends any girl could wish for. Yes, this Nashville lawyer and college friend of Tammy's brother, is a guy any woman would want fighting on her side. It's clear from the opening pages of a wedding scene, that John Parker (as Tammy alone calls him) recognizes Tammy as his "one and only."To me, that recognition is the mark of a brave and secure man. I love reading romances where the alpha hero fears love and commitment, but what really sends my book heart into a flutter is when the alpha hero is secure within himself. Yes, John Parker is that man and I had faith in him, from the beginning, that somehow this story would have a happily-ever-after.There's plenty of conflict, between Tammy's desire to stand on her own, a crazy stalker, the search for the tabloid leak, and providing the children security when they feel their security ripped away. When Tammy and John Parker finally confront their desire for one another, oh my goodness, my eReader was sizzling!Just as a bit of fairy magic is invoked to solve some of these conflicts and encourage romance, I think Miles sprinkled a bit virtually on the pages as this story just swept me away. With each plant that was chosen, I'd imagine the fragrance. The songs sung? Yes, I think I heard music too.It's a real gifted writer who can achieve these magical leaps for a reader - and that's why with each book I add to my Ava Miles' bookshelf, I beam a bit inside. Yes, there's a shelf full of happiness in my eReader courtesy of Miles.(I received an eARC from the publisher through NetGalley for use in this review and purchased a personal copy for my permanent library.)

The Chocolate Garden  is book two in the Dare River series by Ava Miles.  It is just as interesting as book one and it keeps your interest.  Sometimes book two of a series is not as good as the first one, however, Ava has managed to keep book two fresh and beautiful at the same time.Tammy redid Rye’s gardens as a favor to him; but it was more than that to her. She began to see herself as capable of doing something.  She had been beaten down with verbal abuse and cowed by his hitting her.  Now she envisions a business of her own, Visionary Gardening. She had talked to her Father about it and he agreed to help her get started.  That came none too soon as at Rye’s wedding to Tory, Tammy began getting jobs. She also got jobs due to her having done the flowers for Rye’s wedding.  Her first customer was to be John Parker McGuiness, lawyer, songwriter, and friend to Rye.  He wants his gardens redone and wants to be her first client.  What she doesn’t know at this time is that John Parker has fallen hard for Tammy.Amelia has a crush on Clayton, Rye’s friend, lawyer, and member of Rye’s management team. She makes sure he notices her at the wedding; but he refuses to dance with her.  She is determined that he will be the one to take her virginity and tries again only to be rebuffed.  She is carrying around a deadly secret.  At least she thinks it is deadly for Tammy.  She wishes she had not done something but it is too late to come clean.Tammy is determined to change herself.  She doesn’t want to be like Mama and hurt everyone around her.  She starts with cutting her hair and getting new clothes.  She wants a house for herself and her children; but at the moment can’t afford one.  She must get her business off the ground.Will she get her business off the ground?  Will she ever know that John Parker has fallen for her?  Will her children ever feel safe?  Will she ever make up with Mama like she has with Rye?  What is a chocolate garden?  This fantastic book just gets better and better.
