Book DescriptionLucy Fitzhenry didn't just wake up one morning and decide to do something stupid . . .
But when an experimental strain of chocolate that she'd developed needed testing, someone had to do it. Who knew that overindulging in her creation would turn an introverted plant lover into a wild nymphomaniac? Or that a celebration with Nick, her boss, would lead to a shocking kiss . . . and a whole lot more.
She blamed it on the chocolate. Her new discovery was supposed to have made her career. Not turn her practical, logical, normal life upside down and get her pregnant with her boss's baby! Though she and Nick butted heads at work, if their one night together was any indication, they were a great match in bed. With a little luck (and chocolate!) maybe they could turn their one-night stand into the chance of a lifetime.

Any book with the word chocolate in the title is bound to grab my attention. Thankfully, Ms. Greene's BLAME IT ON CHOCOLATE lived up to my sweet-tooth cravings! This is a story that's actually nice-in the true definition of nice-in that there are no bad guys, no cheating, no broken hearts, and a happy ending. The characters are truly believable, the dialogue is funny, and the situations this couple find themselves in are ones anyone can relate to.

This was my first book by Jennifer Greene and it made me a fan!

Later she is not feeling quite right and she blames it on the chocolate. Which is partly true, since she is pregnant from that one night of passion with Nick.
This book has a lot going for it. You have the relationship ... Read More
Rating: - Really can't see how this is a romance
I don't get this book as a romance. Nick explains several times how he would never be interested in Lucy. She says several times how Nick would never be interested in her. I kept reading hoping that the author would make this believable when they finally get together. She never did although I learned a lot about making chocolate.
It's just no fun starting a book from the first knowing that the characters are so totally miss-matched!
Even the secondary characters are boring. ... Read More

Blame it on Chocolate by Jennifer Greene was fun romance novel. Lucy is a developer at a chocolate factory and finds her life in chaos ~ is it the new chocolate or her handsome boss? I read this book in a day and it pure chocolate bliss. If you enjoy this genre, I would also suggest, Falling For Gracie by Susan Mallery,The Care and Feeding of Unmarried Men by Christie Ridgway and Underfoot by Leanne Banks.
