What to expect

A golden ticket to love…

The spiciest risks lead to the sweetest rewards in this delicious, MM retelling of Charlie and the Chocolate Factory.

Dario Cotogna has a problem: he must marry by his next birthday or lose his family’s chocolate empire to his philandering brother. But Dario’s agoraphobia keeps him trapped at home, so he launches a global competition: five contestants, one week at his luxury Italian Villa and a chance to become his husband.

Aspiring tattoo artist Charlie Moore isn’t looking for love – he’s looking for a miracle to save his grandparents from the bill collectors. But when Charlie meets the brilliant heir, their attraction is instant…

After a whirlwind week of wine, indulgence and temptation, their chemistry grows. But will Dario and Charlie melt under the pressure…or find a love worth savouring?

🍬Searching for a bad boy bonbon 🍬

Praise for Timothy Janovsky

‘This bewitching queer contemporary from Janovsky…is a charmer.’ Publishers Weekly on Once Upon You and Me

‘Janovsky’s latest is an age-gap, forbidden romance that blends fairy-tale romance with sexier bedtime stories to deliver pure enchantment to its readers.’ Library Journal on Once Upon You and Me

‘Tartly humorous and deliciously spicy.’ Booklist on You Had Me at Happy Hour

‘Janovsky’s latest is a work nemesis-to-lovers, ‘we’re just friends with benefits until we’re so much more’ story, with two adorably awkward protagonists who it’s impossible not to root for.’ Library Journal on You Had Me at Happy Hour

‘Game show antics, idiots-in-love, and a healthy dose of steam, this book swept me off my feet. Sexy as hell, with Janovsky’s trademark wit and charm, this book is everything I want in a romance novel!’ Alison Cochrun, author of The Charm Offensive and Kiss Her Once for Me, on The (Fake) Dating Game

‘Fans of the fake-dating trope and game shows will find a lot to like here. Holden is a sympathetic narrator, and readers will happily root for him as he learns that while there are no quick fixes for grief, opening up to the right people can make all the difference.’ Library Journal on The (Fake) Dating Game
