The Chocolate Box

How far would you go to get the man you can't stop drooling over?

Would you hex a box of chocolates?

Surely it's only giving Law of Attraction a helping hand?

ELLIE SANCHEZ was spurned during her school days at prestigious Monty’s academy when she was plain Eleanor Finch, playing second fiddle to her idol, BARNABY WESTWOOD, and his mean girl sister, Clementine. Now she's all grown up, she will stop at nothing to turn the tables. The wealthy siblings and their snubbing have been the catalyst for everything that’s gone wrong in her life, from parental neglect to her recent divorce.

When the Westwood travel merchandise company advertises for a new HR manager, Ellie seizes the opportunity to fake her CV and ensnare her quarry in a steamy office romance. Once Barnaby sees how much she’s changed, anyway.

Fast forward six months... He STILL doesn’t recognise her 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...

A tasty forced proximity rom-com with a deeply flawed protagonist!
