Steal My Heart, Secret Santa!

"Romance with a Taste" is a cycle of novellas in which each story feels like a flawless dessert: a soft filling of feelings and a long, pleasant aftertaste. For the audio format, a special track has been created: “Steal My Heart, Secret Santa”—a gift for all listeners. Turn it on and immerse yourself in heartfelt romance with a New Year’s mood.

Emilia Green’s new book is by a romantic prose author whose love plots are rapidly becoming bestsellers. This story is like a chocolate candy: on the outside, a shiny picture of perfect life from Varya’s blog, and inside, a sharp note of loneliness. Like hot chocolate, it first burns with the truth and then warms with hope when fate brings the heroine together with Denis.

Life in a children’s home is far from fairy tales. To avoid showing people her complicated reality, Varya runs a popular blog about a “beautiful life”: she posts perfectly edited photos, motivating quotes, and invented stories. Her followers are sure they’re looking at a happy girl from a well-off family—unaware of what hides behind the display of ideal frames.

Everything changes because of a single “Secret Santa” game, when Varya’s cherished wish ends up in the hands of one of the city’s most famous guys—a volunteer, Denis Chernov.

Will Varya be able to find someone who feels like home again? And what happens when what was hidden stops being a secret?..
