WHAT READERS SAY ABOUT THE BOOK
If you like the Grandma Mazur in Janet Evanovich's Stephanie Plum series, you'll love Hot Chocolate. The characters are all quirky and funny, and, when you aren't laughing out loud, you'll be smiling. I've read Hot Chocolate, and I want more hot books from Dawn Ireland, so I can laugh some more! -- By Laura V. Arzola
Dawn is a brilliantly funny writer who has crafted a hilarious cozy mystery novel set in River Oaks, Houston, Texas. It is filled with quirky, eccentric characters involved in murder and chocolate. Whodunnit? You've never had so much fun finding out. -- By Sandy Penny "WritingMuse"
This is the most entertaining book I have read in years! Once I started reading it was hard to put it down -- had to see what would happen next. The characters are funny and very interesting -- quirky Texas millionaires. The plot is not only gripping but funny. -- By Bigan
I kept getting hungry because of the lavish descriptions of food... I thought, these people love to eat. Lila Mae even describes how she makes a treat for Louie the dog. The thing that kept it rolling was the little mysteries inside of the bigger mystery. -- By Delmore
Reading Hot Chocolate is like watching a Woody Allen movie - even the minor characters are quirky and wonderful. The story is a fast-paced whodunit with fun descriptions and an underlying astrology theme. -- By M. Stautberg
FROM THE AUTHOR
How Janet Evanovich changed my life -- Everything had been going gung ho from 2000-2002. My new dog book (The Puppy Baby Book) just launched and won an IPPY award shortly after publication.
Artistic Origins, my technical writing business, was thriving with contracts/work, and I was renovating my new house. While that part of my life was great, my dating life was non-existent. It had been six (6) years since I even HAD a date. That is not a typo.
I guess there is a reason for some things and we just have to wait until the veil lifts to see clearly.
You are most likely sitting there wondering what on earth does this has to do with Janet Evanovich, but I promise you, it is coming. Bear with me.
A guy roared into my life in early 2002 and swept me off my feet. I was blindsided. I ended up selling my house, moving out of state and living an idyllic lifestyle for one year. At that point, the great grandfather of all disasters struck. I should have asked way more questions than I did prior to moving, but I did not. Oh well...
Toward the end of summer in 2003, you-know-what hit the fan. I am talking beyond bucketfuls - it was clearly by the dump truck-full. In a nutshell, within minutes on that fateful day I was not only destitute, but had nowhere to go. I was homeless! Good friends back in Houston took up a collection so I could move back home.
Then even MORE you-know-what hit the fan. I couldn't find work. It seems that while I was off lolly-gagging in my new princess lifestyle, technical writing had been outsourced overseas.
If that isn't enough, like rubbing a raw onion into an oozing sore, I had to hire an attorney to handle the nightmare legal mess, which had me living in fear.
And because all those jobs were outsourced, I did not work for the remainder of 2003 through 2005. My resume went around the country and around the globe with little or no response. I lived off credit cards and the charity of friends and family.
My brain was frozen and I could not write one word. Total creative shut down for months.
Then, someone gave me a battered copy of One for the Money by Janet Evanovich. I read that paperback overnight.
O M G! That book changed my life!
I loved Stephanie Plum. What a sassy, wild and crazy gal! I loved Lula! I loved Morelli. I loved Ranger. I loved Grandma Mazur. I loved all the wacky characters that poured out of Janet Evanovichs head.
Then, one night I had a crazy dream about this wealthy woman named Lila Mae Alcott whose family was rich out the wazoo from their chocolate empire.
I must have had a hot fudge sundae or something before bedtime for that to end up in my head.
Hence, my mystery novel Hot Chocolate was born. And my characters are so sassy and outrageous, but unlike Stephanie Plum, these gals are middle-aged wealthy women from Houston's elite River Oaks!
Janet uplifted me. Those characters were in my brain cells. I started writing again.
Work came through. A gigantic technical writing project dropped into my lap. I could hardly believe my good fortune.
Over the next two years I bought every Stephanie Plum book that I could get my hands on.
So - many, many thanks to Janet Evanovich! Janet taught me so much about writing and characters. I love her. I hope I get to meet her in person one of these days!
Chocolate, mystery, and murder...what else could a reader want from a book? Well, Dawn Ireland delivers that and more in her most recent book, Hot Chocolate. Centering on the Alcott daughters, heiresses to the Alcott Chocolate fortune, Hot Chocolate begins as the sisters agree to move their 92-year-old father to a senior assisted living facility. They also agree to fire his nurse, Bambi, who resembles a hooker more than a caregiver. While Bambi departs without a fuss and graciously accepts her severance package, her husband, Jimmy Ray, does not go so quietly.
Demanding they sue the Alcott family, Jimmy Ray believes they have a slam-dunk case. However, the judge sees through their greed and quickly dismisses the frivolous suit. While the Alcotts celebrate their good fortune, some mysterious individual murders Jimmy Ray at his bowling alley. Bambi deals with her grief, and the Alcott sisters try to digest the latest discovery in Jimmy Ray's murder: the murder weapon was a prized fork belonging to Dorothea Alcott.
As the murderer's identity comes closer to being revealed, the reader is kept guessing along with the Alcotts at what will happen next. All the while, delicious dishes, such as Lila Mae's famous café mocha and Amelia's (Lila Mae's housekeeper) chicken and corn gumbo, make appearances at pivotal moments in the plot. Ireland cleverly places all of these yummy recipes at the end of Hot Chocolate so that the reader can fully immerse themselves in the interesting world of the Alcotts. Certain to not disappoint, the Alcott sisters act as any siblings would: fighting, joking, and working together, with unique personalities and quirks. The mystery of Jimmy Rae's murder will keep you guessing until the very end and certainly will provide laughs and gasps along the way.
Snippets from the book:
"Are you going for the "I'm sixty-six and have Alzheimer's so I won't remember this ensemble tomorrow' look?" Lila Mae threw at her older sister.
"That beauty queen title was forty-plus years ago, Lila Mae. You are no longer classified as a 'girl.' You qualify for all of the senior citizen discounts, which you refuse, I might add," Madge heckled.
"Madge, our baby sister is a middle-aged woman who doesn't give a rat's tail about anyone else's feelings. At last count, she had a staff of twelve, including the two alternating nurses. I think she can quit the hand-wringing and make her bridge club without missing a beat," Lila Mae fumed.
"The girls," as Walter was fond of referring to the three Alcott sisters, were icily keeping their distance from one another.
Dorothea's caramel-colored Bentley pulled up to the five-car garage alongside the ten-thousand, four-hundred square-foot mansion.
...she arrived at the second floor landing, Dorothea was greeted with a distasteful and horrific sight: rear cleavage - the butt crack peering out of a pair of very wide jeans. "Let me be blunt...you either need to wear underwear, or secure your shirt inside your pants with a good-fitting belt," Dorothea broiled.
"Giant plops of cow poop's getting ready to hit the fan." Lila Mae said.
The gang arrived at Dorothea's like a motorcade - three Bentleys followed by a Mercedes, a Cadillac, a Lexus, and a Volvo. Car doors opened and shut.
"So, people drink at happy hour," Madge insisted. She turned in her seat to Amelia. "What do you think, Amelia? Is this enough of a situation to warrant a drink?"
"I say we get wasted," Amelia said.

Free Article: Controlled Emotion, Focused Energy and the Power of Persistence Lead to Success
When I discuss success strategies with my patients, many of my favorite analogies are
drawn from the game of golf. This sport is one of the best metaphors I know of for
successful living because it contains all of the elements required for setting, tending and
reaching one's goals.
I've learned that the excitement of the game comes not from getting the ball in the hole,
but from the challenge of reducing the number of strokes it takes to achieve that triumph
(ingrained goal setting). Life without goals is like a golf green without a flag, or a hole
without a par.

I have been a life long learner and an avid reader. I'm a kid at heart so it was natural that I write books about kids, for kids. I've traveled the world extensively and my experiences have given inspiration for some of my writing. I believe that my love of reading has also influenced my writing, but the greatest influence has been from a fellow author who encouraged me early on. I married my high school sweetheart, Mary, 32 years ago. she works in the medical field. We have two daughters, Katie and Maddie. Katie is in college; she wants to be a doctor. Maddie, who is in high school, hopes to teach and write. I spend a good part of my day writing, and marketing. I want kids to read, to learn and most of all...to have fun doing it!

In 2000, Bill chose to hire his own coach to help him take control of his life. Even though he was strongly connected within the coaching industry, having been in charge of membership development of the International Coaching Federation, (ICF) it took him 6 months and 28 coaches before he chose Thom Politico as his coach, because Thom was the first and only coach who asked Bill for his coachable goal before he would begin coaching. Through coaching with Thom, Bill rediscovered his five core ingredients and created his new ideal income position as the cofounder of The Coach Connection, (TCC) which he started in June of 2001. This remarkable exercise of working with Thom is described in the book. Bill turned his life around and once again was able to go to play every day and get to call it work. Now he offers the same life changing information to you!

Why would a woman entering middle age--attractive, sexy, articulate, imaginative, intelligent, charming, charismatic, wealthy and successful in almost every aspect of her life--knowingly give up the only thing missing from that life: namely, love? And love with a younger man she meets serendipitously not once, but three times--and whose appreciation of her quickly grows from mere physical attraction to adoration and then to obsession? The riddle from start to finish is perhaps to be found in the word "knowingly." The answer to that riddle? Revealed only in the final chapter of this erotic novel..

Don’t miss this riveting, inspirational true story of personal redemption beyond trauma.
It is difficult to know exactly when some patterns will manifest in the physical world, or whether the events will have less or more impact in terms of what was sensed beforehand. I tend to be uncannily accurate sometimes, and at other times, I'm years off, with no way to know at the time a pattern is picked up. But my spirit guides tend to be highly accurate, regardless. Sometimes I almost don’t write things down. And then, when I do write them down they tend to happen. Sometimes it amazes even me when predictions come true, the same as you! This year many of last year's predictions will continue to be very important!
In the early 80’s, I was given the opportunity to participate in a teaching exchange program in Mexico and I jumped at the opportunity to become bilingual English/Spanish. The Hispanic population was steadily growing in the U. S. and being bilingual would make me much more effective in the social service field.
Initially, I had contracted to spend two months in the tiny province of Orizaba, Veracruz but unbeknownst to me, the plan would change.
In the end, I learned much more than a second language.
The subsequent story is a chapter taken from my bestselling memoir, Cutting the Strings..

Chapters from Bestseller Blissful Lies, now a feature film!
Blissful Lies tells a heart-wrenching story exploring the enviable bonds of five best friends who, in the midst of growing up together, are just starting to realize how much they still have to learn about life. They quickly find the limits of their relationships are tested when secrets and lies rapidly interrupt their picture perfect existence, threatening the stability of years of friendship. At the center of their universe is mother to one group member and Brown-Thomas University Chancellor, Addison Hamilton. Uncertainty in her own life leads her down a path of no return as she finds herself a little too involved with someone many years her junior. While each person is forced to take responsibility for their hidden secret, they wonder if ultimately, it’s just too much to move forward as the ‘family’ they once claimed to be.
