My second book by Carmen Jenner, and I'm wondering what has taken me so long to start reading her books?! Of course there were two authors on this one, so now I have a new author to check out as well, Lauren K. McKellar. I loved this story. It was sweet, it was funny, and it was so hard to put down! I just tore through it, reading mostly on my phone, so swiping constantly to turn the small pages as I read. One night I stayed up later reading, because I just couldn't stop. I had to know what was going to happen next. It was a story where there were all the misunderstandings, the way one person reacted came off as something different because they weren't clear in how they said or did something. Then without knowing who a person was, it was assumed that it was a significant other, and that threw a monkey-wrench into the whole relationship. About 75% through, there was a bit of a twist, that I didn't quite see coming. I knew there was going to be a little twist, but the way it turned out, and just how far back reaching the whole backstory on that twist was made for a more interesting ending. But I definitely like how at that point, Elio, aka Coffee Hottie or Italian coffee god, didn't have the typical misunderstanding and back down. I like that he stepped forward for "his girl" Romy, and fought for her. Took her back.
Another sweet, fun, and sexy read. I also loved how real Romy was, the dieting, the fit guy who was so selfish and really such an ass about how he made her attractive. Great read.

This book wasn't what I expected and it was a quicker read than I thought it was going to be. There were times I wanted to lock the two main characters in a room to talk things out I was so frustrated with them. All in all, Bittersweet was a SWEET story.
I've always been body conscious so when there's a hero who likes a woman just as she is is every woman's fantasy. He also happened to be an AMAZING father. All of that was a recipe for my heart to detonate.
I'm hoping Carmen and Lauren team up again to write another story!! Especially a certain baker's sister and his best friend.

Two of my favourite Aussie authors have come together to write Bittersweet.
And what a delightfully sweet story it is.
Romy and Elio's story is all kinds of cute and adorable, and right from the get go I wanted Romy to get her
I love how adorkably cute they are around each other. Watching them circle each other, neither admitting they want the other. You just want to smoosh them together.
There is a little darling of a scene stealer that will absolutely grab your heart and run away with it. I am still waiting for them to bring mine back.
I adored that there wasn't any OTT drama with this story. Sure, our lovelies had their trials, but no drama for dramas sake.
I like most of the secondary characters - believe me, there is one you will absolutely hate! You will know who they are as soon as you meet them!
I couldn't help but smile as I read Bittersweet. I laughed, I smiled, I wanted to throw my kindle at people. But most of all, I kept turning each page, needing to know what would happen next.
Bittersweet was a wonderful way to spend a few hours, lazing on the couch with a nice hot cuppa.
I hope these lovely ladies collaborate again in the future.

This book was a fast and enjoyable read. I liked both main characters, but I wanted to smack their heads together so that they would speak to each other and communicate clearly.
I pretty much liked all the characters apart from one, and you'll know who that is when you read it yourself, trust me.
There were a lot of sweet and a lot of funny moments, and some moments you just wanted to smack someone on the head. Everything played out in a fairly smooth fashion though, without dragging the book on too much.
There is a huge message about body image in this one, which I absolutely loved, because of how big of an issue body image is these days. We all struggle with it, we can all relate to Romy, and the way these ladies have written it into this book, is awesome. It was very well done.
Romy and Elio as main characters are both pretty awesome, and all round this was just an easy read.
Would recommend.

Bittersweet was an enjoyable read with plenty of laughs and descriptions of delectable desserts.
It’s a light, easy to read book but it felt like the book was chopped in thirds which I did find a touch distracting.
The first third there were plenty of laughs.
The next third, there was a lull in the action, the couple spent time apart and the story fell flat.
The last third is when the action picks up again but the tone is much more serious than the comedy we started out with.
As for the secondary characters, well Coco was beyond cute. And I loved Nico! I think I was supposed to look down on his desire to do nothing but frankly, it was candid and refreshing. Heck, I‘m jealous! I would not say no to his lifestyle. I hope Nico gets his own book.
