Books and Chocolate - the perfect combination
Today is release day for the 4th book in The Mind's Eye Series.
"Tales From The Cacao Tree" is a collection of short stories and poetry inspired by photographs. For this anthology, we set our photographers the task of taking interesting photographs of chocolate.

The gorgeous book cover was designed by Kat at Aeternum Designs (http://aeternumdesigns.com/) from a photograph taken by Helle Gade.
Interestingly, the Science Daily reported an important discovery about cacao trees last week. Their story says,
Cacao trees evolved around 10 million years ago, earlier than previously believed, new research shows. Considerable genetic variation might remain to be discovered among wild cacao populations, which could be crossbred with cultivated cacao for greater resistance to disease and climate change, and possibly new flavors.
Read the full story here: http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/...
That is great news for chocolate lovers.
Even better news is that you can purchase a copy of Tales From The Cacao Tree on Kindle today! :)
There are 3 new short stories from me in the anthology.
The book also contains stories from Darcia Helle, J. Michael Radcliffe, and Julie Elizabeth Powell. There are poems from Ben Ditmars, Helle Gade, and Richard Weatherly.
The photographs were contributed by Martin David Porter, Helle Gade, and Kim Stapf.
Considering chocolate is so sweet and all the writers love it, surprisingly there are lots of murder stories in this collection. This may have been caused by the frustration of staring at photos of chocolate but not being able to eat it... :)
I've read all the stories and poems and absolutely love them. Just like a box of chocolates, there's something for everyone in this collection: murder, mystery, love, romance, loss, revenge, fantasy, magic, and dragons.
I'd suggest you eat chocolate whilst reading it :)
The book is available free on Kindle Unlimited, or $3.99/£3.99
Here are the links:
Amazon UK: http://www.amazon.co.uk/Tales-Cacao-T...
Amazon US: http://www.amazon.com/Tales-Cacao-Tre...
Also available at Amazon stores worldwide.
Now I need to go and eat some chocolate :)
