Mint To Be Loved: (The Candy Shop Series Book 25) Kindle Edition

4.8 out of 5 stars 9 ratings

Paige Murphy is your typical type-A, over the top, sexually-repressed, nerdy girl. Born into academia, she comes from a long line of strict, overbearing librarians. A poster child for the Never-Been-Kissed Fan Club, Paige’s life is one of banality and conformity. | If not for her childhood best friends, Kathy and Sarah, providing comic relief, she would have succumbed long ago to the bland, starched life of cardigan sweaters and tucked-in white shirts with going pantyless on workdays her only form of rebellion. Freshly graduated from NYU, Paige has just landed her dream job at The JP Morgan Library and met the man of her dreams on her very first day! | Nicolas Bennett is a newly-minted history professor at NYU. Single, with dreamy good looks and riveting blue eyes, he has a smile that has left Paige in a constant state of erotic daydreaming. Now she finds herself torn between playing it safe and longing for a life she has never known. | When a mysterious package addressed to Paige arrives at the library, she is drawn into an ever-deepening mystery revolving around the good professor. Will she find that love is not for everyone, or in her case is she Mint to be Loved?

Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

Elias Raven was born and raised in Los Angeles. He’s an avid reader with a lifelong passion for writing. He’s a storyteller, a poet and a talented musician with an amazing voice. Oh, and let’s not forget an amazing cook!

As a young boy he spent many summers reading classics such as "The Adventures of Sherlock Homes" and "The White Company" by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle. His creativity was constantly being pushed as he learned more and more about the world around him. His taste in literature spanned from classics to science fiction/fantasy. He expanded his taste devouring everything from William Blake to Milton, Dante, Baudelaire, Arthur Rimbaud, T.S. Elliot, Emily Dickinson, Robert Frost, Khalil Gibran, William Carlos Williams, Ezra Pound, Paul Verlaine, Walt Whitman, Alan Ginsburg, Jack Kerouac, William Burroughs, Carl Sandburg, Dylan Thomas, and Jim Morrison. These inspirations and his sheer love for reading had him take pen to paper around the age of 20.

Did I mention he’s a Musician? ...You can often find him playing his guitars (both electric and acoustic) and keyboards and singing (4 octave ranges) in his home studio. He’s a classically trained music aficionado -trained early on by Beethoven, Brahms, Mozart, Hayden, Liszt, as well as Big Band, Jazz and Rag Time. Spending time with his father at the Los Angeles Philharmonic; experiencing his first orchestra concert at the age of 9.

Elias the Gourmet Cook…Oh My!...His Japanese mother and grandmother trained him very well in fine culinary skills both in cooking and food appreciation from all over the world such as Italian, Indian, Moroccan, Thai, Japanese, Chinese, Korean, Hawaiian, Pilipino, Greek, and Polish.

When Elias is not reading, writing, composing music or cooking…he can be found listening to music, playing games, hanging out with his kids. He enjoys going to concerts, going on culinary adventures, sightseeing, spending the day at the beach or in the mountains…just doing something adventurous!

    Paige and Nick are now on my favorites list. This story has it all...sexy and suave professor, a smart young woman with great friends to help get into trouble, a mysterious box. I loved every page of this book and laughed through most of it. If you are looking for a book that you can just sit back and enjoy then this is the one for you.

    OMG! I freakin love this book. This is actually the first book I've read by Elias Raven and it was AMAZING! Shhhh! Don't let him know it's the first book I've read. I haven't laughed this much in so long from a book. Grab your favorite chocolate and enjoy. If I could I'd give this one more than five stars.
