In this
special Christmas novella from Darlene Panzera, THE CUPCAKE DIARIES: Spoonful
of Christmas continues the adventures of three cupcake-loving women who work to
keep their dream cupcake shop open while balancing love, family, and
friendship.
When
businessman Preston Pennyworth offers to buy Creative Cupcakes for a million
dollars, the women are startled by his offer. Friends Andi, Kim, and Rachel
have put everything into the shop and don’t want to give it up. Despite
refusing the expensive offer, their worries are starting to pile up—just in
time for the Christmas season. Between
Andi’s concerns about a potential cross-country move, Rachel’s wedding-day
stress, and Kim’s love life woes, the spirit of the season seems to be lacking!
With the added stress of the holiday season, the women can’t help but imaging
the possibilities of the offer.
Things change
when Andi decides to organize a Christmas party for the
foster kids in the area and the whole town gets involved. The women of Creative
Cupcakes are reminded of what truly matters, as they realize the best things in
life are close to home! But, when the shop is vandalized, the foster kids’
gifts are stolen, and Rachel’s wedding is sabotaged by a real life Grinch, the
women can’t help but feel hopeless on Christmas. Will their Christmases be saved?
In this
warm and heartfelt add-on to THE CUPCAKE DIARIES trilogy, Darlene Panzera’s
Christmas novella will captivate reader’s hearts and capture the true meaning
of Christmas.

My Review:
I really enjoyed the trilogy. I liked the friendship between these three women and how they depended on each other for advice, friendship and so much more. What I liked about this book was how they were starting to wonder if they were making the right decisions. They were starting to question their life choices. There was also love thrown in, and I could not wait for the wedding. I loved that they all worked together. I am giving this book a 5/5. I was given a copy to review, however all opinions are my own.
