This book brings all the feels, steamy bits and great characters all wrapped up in a great story! Don’t miss out.
Delightful story! Well developed characters with great stories, funny conversations, unique reactions and romance! The story line is authentic plot with twists of fate and human reactions! Loved it!
This was a smart, funny, sexy contemporary romance and I loved every word! Asher is looking for forever, after being burned by his last girlfriend, he is a bit leery. That is, until he lays his eyes on Honor, his new neighbor. However Honor doesn’t believe in happy ever after. Her parents have seven divorces between them, how could she possibly believe in love. This story was filled with fun banter between all characters and Asher and Honor have ridiculous chemistry! I haven’t found a book from Stacey that I haven’t thoroughly enjoyed! She is a romantic literary genius!! Read this series and every other one she’s written!
I was able to get a free copy of this book and I loved it. I chose to voluntarily review it. I loved this book. It was well written and the characters are awesome. I encourage everyone to get this book. It is worth your time and effort. This is the first Stacey Joy Netzel that I have read but it will not be my last. Give this one a chance I think you will like it.
Must Love Frosting is book one in the Must Love Diamonds series.I loved Honor and Asher’s story. It was a fun book to read, and I don’t say fun often when referring to reading. It’s definitely worth picking up!
I thought this was a good read! The writing flowed well from start to finish, and I loved Asher and Honor together. They had great chemistry, and I thought they complimented each other well. Asher was a great guy, and I loved that he wasn’t running from a relationship even though he had been burned in the past. I liked Honor most of the time, but to judge every relationship on the fact that your parents couldn’t stay married was crazy, in my opinion. I wish that she wouldn’t have told herself the relationship was going to end before it even started, but she eventually came around. I loved the scene between Honor, her mom and Asher’s mom. It was sweet, and helped Honor see some things more clearly. The ending was super sweet, and I can’t wait to find out what happens in Loyal’s book!
I voluntarily reviewed an advanced readers copy of this book.
I loved and really enjoyed this first book in the “Must Love Diamonds” series! I am not going to tell you the story (you’ll just have to read the book! ). It will keep you reading from beginning to end. I highly recommend it! I can’t wait for the second book!
I really enjoyed reading it!
Must Love Frosting, is a feel-good
sexy & moving story.
Delightful characters & romance
make it the perfect read.
Asher Honor, steal your heart
from the very first pages to the last.
Look forward to more books in series!
I loved everything about this Must
Read Story!!
This is a great story with a whole cast of wonderful characters. Asher and Honor are so perfect for each other and I love the way they sass each other. The story is well written and thoroughly enjoyable and once I started I didn’t want to put it down. I just wanted them all to get their HEA (guess I will have to read the rest of the series to find out what happens to all the siblings).
The beginning to a new series. One baker, one photographer and lots of frosting. Book was sweet, romantic, funny..I enjoyed every minute of the book. Especially when Honor’s mom,
and Ashers mom told her something very important. But her mom told her what was missing. She knew her baking was missing something.
It was Asher. She blew it. There was no such thing as Happily Ever After. She had to take the leap. Never forget to put LOVE in all your baking and cooking.
Highly recommend.
Can’t wait for book 2.
I’m a big fan of novel written by Stacey and this one did not disappoint me. It the beginning of a series with the Diamond family as main characters. I enjoyed it because the characters were totally believable and I actually LIKED them! The story line kept me reading to see what would happen next. It also wasn’t overloaded with bedroom scenes and the storyline had substance. I’m hooked and have already purchased the next in this series!
I received a copy of this book from the publisher for review purposes and all opinions expressed are my own.
Good read. Romance, some surprises and misunderstandings. A surprise character just to stir things up again.
Oh, Buttercream!
Charming story, mix-ups galore, but I loved how both protagonists developed and grew. Asher thinks his family’s marriages are rock solid and forever. Honor is sure her family’s are destined to be on the rocks. They’re both wrong. Mix in Asher’s psychic friend who says Honor the wedding cake baker doesn’t believe in love, and therefore dooms the love of all who eat her cakes. There is bonding over tequila shots and a finally willingness to take a chance and believe; stir the batter and you have a terrific story.
Asher Diamond believes in true love and HEA. His family has always said that you married for life. When he meets wedding cake baker, Honor Hartman, he finds a woman who believes love never lasts. She lives across the street from him and proves to be a constant distraction. However, sparks fly whenever they meet. Asher is the perfect hero. He’s honorable, thoughtful and caring. Honor has grown up with the results of divorce. She knows there are no winners. I admired her determination to be successful in life. I just wish that her fear of love and happiness didn’t scare her so. Asher’s friend, Roxanna, caused so much havoc in Honor’s life that it took me a while to warm up to her. Stacey Joy Netzel wrote a story that I couldn’t put down. The characters were interesting and the story had unexpected twists. The dialogue was sharp and filled with humor. I can’t wait to learn more about the other Diamond siblings. I know that there will be plenty of drama and romance.
I received a copy of this book which I voluntarily read and reviewed. My comments are my honest opinion.
Must Love Frosting is a fabulous contemporary romance by Stacey Joy Netzel. Ms. Netzel has delivered a well-written book loaded with a stellar cast of characters. The dialog is snappy, snarky and makes this book so much fun to read. Asher is a photographer and cake lover. I mean he REALLY loves cake. Honor is in the cake business and as a sideline, she has a proposal consulting business. Did I mention Honor and Asher are now neighbors? Honor and Asher’s story is packed with drama, humor and sizzle. I loved every page of Must Love Frosting and look forward to my next book by Stacey Joy Netzel. Must Love Frosting is book 1 of the Must Love Diamonds Series but can be read as a standalone. This is a complete book, not a cliff-hanger. Read it!! Where else can you have cake and not gain an ounce.
I got a kick out of Must Love Frosting. From the first time that Asher spots Honor on her front lawn to the end, this is a rolicking fun romp. Asher and Honor have been barely missing meeting each other for a couple of years while working the same weddings, him as the photographer and her as the cake baker. When they finally do meet, sparks fly, but a misunderstanding keeps them apart at the beginning.
When they finally do get together, watch out for the heat in the kitchen. Asher absolutely loves cake, especially the frosting, and somehow Honor’s cakes are even better once she and Asher become an item. But no road to a happy ending comes without some speed bumps. The characters are wonderful and the story is engaging and well-written. I can’t wait to read the upcoming books in the series. Bravo!
I received a free copy of this book and am choosing to share my review.
I enjoyed the story of Honor and Asher and look forward to the next book in this series. It was a nice change of pace to have Honor, a wedding cake baker, have to be convinced to believe in her own HEA. There were some very steamy scenes and heart touching ones. I would definitely recommend this for a quick afternoon read. I was given an arc and I am giving my honest review,voluntarily
I was given an ARC of this book for an honest review.
Asher Diamond makes his living as a professional photographer who also does weddings. Although that may be more for the cake. Or more specifically the frosting, because the best cake maker in the world is right in his home town and taking wedding photos gives him the frosting fix he craves. Honor makes beautiful wedding cakes, she’s finally making a name for herself and a business she can support herself with. Then along comes Asher. You would think a wedding photographer and a wedding cake baker would be a match made in heaven! If only Honor believed in forever and Asher didn’t have a psychic best friend whispering in his ear.
Can a woman who believes that loves doesn’t last and a man who believes in happily ever after find their own happy ending? You’ll have to read the book to find out. I laughed and cried, a great start to a new series, I can’t wait for the next one.
This new series from Stacey Joy Netzel is going to be really good. It has all the feels. You have the Diamond (billionaire) Family and a host of side stars all looking for their HEA. Ms. Netzel writes a compelling story that keeps you interested and entertained. I highly recommend you read Book 1 of the Diamond series. Asher and Honor are so much fun.
Diamonds do t do divorce.
Asher Diamond is a wedding photographer who wants to get married but has been burned and that colors his view on women, especially his hot new next door neighbor who happens to be his fantasy baker (he likes cake).
Honor is no naive virgin but she can’t get a read on hot and cold Asher, who is a jerk to her more than once.
Misunderstandings, cake with frosting and attraction.
Recommend.
