Emmeline Thistle a dirt-scratcher's daughter has escaped death twice-first on the night she was born and second on the day her entire village was swept away by flood. Left with nothing and no one Emmeline discovers her rare and mysterious ability-she can churn milk into chocolate a delicacy more precious than gold. Suddenly the most unwanted girl in Anglund finds herself desired by all. But Emmeline only wants one-Owen Oak a dairyman's son whose slow smiles and lingering glances once tempted her to believe she might someday be loved for herself. But others will stop at nothing to use her gift for their own gains-no matter what the cost to Emmeline. Magic and romance entwine in this fantastical world where true love and chocolate conquer all.
