Summary

A sexy, funny, stand alone short Christmas story.

Patisserie Chef Christopher Miller works for Big Boy Cupcakes, London’s only gay bakery. His boss had closed the bakery on the 23rd of December, and Chris was looking forward to some well needed time off, and Christmas alone. But then his boss calls him with a last minute order - the order of his dreams - to bake for his movie idol, actor Jason Beck.

Just as he is about to deliver the order, Chris’s dreams are turned upside down by an explosive, fateful meeting with Fred, an errant Chocolate Labrador. The dog’s owner turns out to be Robin Summers, a one night stand from months before...the man that Chris could not forget.

Conflicted

Parts of this story worked for me, other parts didn't. If cock-shaped cupcakes tickles your funny-bone, then this might be what your looking for.

A deliciously funny and sweet Christmas tale.

Chris Miller is a patisserie chef who specializes in cupcakes with saucy toppers. He gets the Christmas order of his dreams and then those dreams are dashed with hilarious and sexy results. This audiobook was, as expected from Isobel Starling, laugh-out-loud funny, kinky and sweet. This 'second chance at love' short story was great fun. I was entertained by the comedy and delighted by the romance. Gary Furlong never lets me down when it comes to his narrations. Listen to a sample and you'll be hooked!

Christmas tale of love

Great short listen by Isobel, who never fails to disappoint.
This short story revolves around Chris who has an order of Speciality Big Boy Cupcakes to make and deliver to his idol Jason Beck on Christmas Eve but as you can guess nothing goes to plan. A dog, a man and an egg white make this a hilarious tale of second chance love.
Gary Furlong is a superb narrator.

All the right ingredients, leaves you wanting more

This second-chances romance has a great meet cute. Chris is a master baker who works for Big Boy Cupcakes, a gay bakery. Chris racing to deliver a special Christmas order for a celebrity when a chocolate labrador named Fred knocks him and the baked goods over in the snow. To add insult to injury, the cute ‘ginger’ redhead who owns Fred is Robin, a one-night-stand who can’t even remember he slept with Chris, despite telling him it was “the best sex ever”. Robin is hugely apologetic and offers to help him remake the order. Like an episode of Choccywoccydoodah, it’s fun, there’s a rushed timeframe, and there’s a lovely gay baker who makes naughty baked goods - all the right ingredients and leaves you wanting more! Audio narrator Gary Furlong does a great job.
