Just as she embarks on a magical, romantic life of making chocolate by the sea surrounded by a loving family, she begins to suspect that her husband had a dark secret-forged in the final days of WWII-that could destroy the relationships she's come to cherish.</p><p>While a second chance at love is tempting, the mystery of her husband's true identity thwarts her efforts. Challenged to pursue the truth or lose the life she's come to love, Celina and her late husband's brother, Lauro, must trace the past to a remote, Peruvian cocoa region to face the deceit that threatens to shatter their lives-or lose the life and those she has come to love.</p><p>In <em>The Chocolatier</em>, Jan Moran, bestselling author of the contemporary Summer Beach series, and the historical novels, <em>The Winemakers</em> and <em>Scent of Triumph</em>, offers a testament to the resilience of love, along with insights into the fascinating world of chocolate-making.
