Spicetopia Boxed Set (Books 1-4) by Phoebe Alexander

5 out of 5 stars

Spicetopia boxed set is book 1-4 written by phoebe Alexander. I really enjoyed reading these stories. The characters are well written with strong personalities. The plots where great.

Book 1 Sugar & Spice: Cyrus Sweet is the youngest son of the owners of a kid’s theme park called Sweetopia. To force him to pull his weight in the company, Cyrus is made to go undercover to find the employee who is causing an uprising. But he finds The Red Velvet Queen and she opens his eyes to the troubles in Sweetopia will he choose his family, or will he do right by the employees of Sweetopia?
The Red Velvet Queen is really Jolie Cox and she a single mom who relentlessly struggles to make a living for herself and her sons.
They both met when they disguise what will happen when Jolie finds out who Marcus aka Cyrus is? Will she walk away with-out listening to Cy? Will Cy give up on Jolie?

Book 2 Virtue & Spice: This book contains BDSM and swinging and is hot hot hot. Why can’t adults have an adult theme park that caters to their needs. We get to see Cy and Jolie as they partake in an adventure with Moon and Katja the couple they met while away.
The creators of Spicetopia know adulting is hard. Bills. Mortgages. Parenting. Estate planning. Sometimes you just need to kick back and indulge your inner kid except now that inner kid has grown-up tastes.
Cy and Jolie have experience from the kids’ theme park Cy’s family owns. Moon and Katja bring technical and architectural expertise to the table. So, these two couples set out to create a world of adult fun in a slice of paradise called Spicetopia.

Book 3 Fire & Ice: Neve Romano, Director of Security, and Enya Moore, Director of Public Relations, have never gotten along. What will happen when they must work together to stop someone from sabotaging Spicetopia’s grand opening? Can they work closely together without killing each other? Will they find out who is behind the sabotage? Can these two have something between them and have a happily ever after?

Book 4 Naughty & Nice: The big day for Spicetopia, is approaching and Natalie is planning Cy and Jolie’s wedding. She meets Micah when he arrives a few days early. He is officiating the nuptials and was a little interested in checking out the park. She wanted to make a good first impression, but the minister they brought in to officiate the ceremony was a sugarplum she wouldn’t mind sinking her teeth into. She needed to keep her hands and mouth to herself if she was going to pull off the holiday wedding of the century!

Micah Greene, he worked so hard to keep himself on the straight and narrow after he saw what promiscuity and debauchery had done to his brothers. He didn’t know what to expect when he was asked to officiate a wedding at a theme park catering to “grown-ups.” He would somehow resist the seductress event planner he had to work with. No matter how hard it was.

They could work together for one week, right? How hard could it be? You will need to read this story to find out, but I suggest you read all the books in order, so you know what’s going on.

I highly recommend this book/series….

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Phoebe Alexander has done it again! I absolutely loved this selection of books! The Spicetopia world is one I’m so glad I got to experience. These books can be read as stand-alone but believe me when I say you wouldn’t want to miss the build-up and back story in each one! You will never be disappointed with Phoebe Alexander’s writing, she continues to pull you in and hold you captive throughout.
These books are amazing, it was so good that I read it in one sitting! I was captivated, entranced and totally compelled reading it. It had romance & sexiness, it had emotions and secrets. Each book is fast-paced, and a captivating read that you can’t help but read them each in one sitting as you get so invested in the story and the characters that you can’t put it down.

These reads were written in the best way as we got each characters POV, It really helped us to get to know each of them, and what their real thoughts and feelings are.

Phoebe Alexander will and forever be a go-to author for me, she has an incredible way of gripping the reader from the start with her amazing characters and amazing storylines. I can honestly say you would never be disappointed picking up one of her reads, and I cant wait to see what else she can bring!

This book was a great weekend read!
From the very first page i was drawn in and i couldn’t get enough.
The main characters are what made this book great!
Jolie is a single mom who works extremely hard to take care of her family. One of her jobs is at a very sugary amusement park called Sweetopia. She dresses as the Red Velvet Queen and quickly catches the attention of Cy who works in the Cotton Candy Castle Bakery. Cy has been sent in undercover to work for his family’s company and is quickly distracted by the beautiful Red Velvet Queen. Will Jolie be upset when she finds out the lies Cy has told to go undercover at the company? Or will her own secrets come out in the open and be the reason they don’t work out?
Over all i really liked this story. I thought the going undercover trope was a great one. I am looking forward to reading more by this author in the future and i would recommend this to anyone looking for a very sweet read!

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Sugar & Spice is the first book in the Spicetopia series by Phoebe Alexander. I should have known what I was getting myself into by the title alone, but some of the scenes caught me off guard. I love romance books as much as the next girl, but found this one a little too graphic. I’m not saying its a bad book, because I really enjoyed the story itself and plan to continue the series. Just readers be warned, it is not… should we say PG. Very hot scenes unfold a couple times. Some love that, but not my thing.
I enjoyed the characters, as they have depth. Jolie is a single mother, who dresses up cosplay for a theme park. However, she has her secrets, and isn’t as innocent as she appears. Cy on the other hand is a spoiled brat, being the youngest in his family, and will inherit millions. While he can get any girl he wants, and often has, he surprises himself by lusting after Jolie. But will their lust and physical connection morph into something more? Once they find out the whole truth about each other, will they bail? Read to find out!

Sugar & Spice by Phoebe Alexander a five-star read that’s as sweet as sugar. This is the first novel in the Spicetopia series and all I can say is bring on the rest, this just gave the first taste of the sweetest desert and I want to eat every last bite. Cyrus is a difficult character at times, but he shows us all just what he is made of in the end, hearing his voice tell his story helped me come around to him. Jolie is someone we all need in our life, hearing her story just made me need more Jolie in my life. I cant wait to dive into number two, as even though they don’t have to be read in order there is a reading order so I do plan on reading them in order.

I’m a huge fan of Miss Alexander’s and every book gets only better and better and this one definitely didn’t disappoint. Not only am I a fan of her but I’m also a fan of the single parent trope so I knew going into this that it was going to be a winner!

I love how this story was unique with the undercover boss aspect. Miss Alexander has a way of spinning some of the most unique stories that are like no other. I loved Cy and Jolie. I loved watching Cy’s personal growth through the story. It wasn’t something instantaneous but you will root for him throughout the story.

This book will consume you right from the get-go and I’m dying to read more!

Sugar & Spice (Spicetopia #1) by Phoebe Alexander – Review by Randall Murphy

This book is full of interesting characters and plot lines. It’s “Undercover Boss” meets Harlequin Romance and “Exit to Eden” with a bit of standing up for employee rights. While that may sound convoluted and twisted, it’s actually pieced together in a way that grabs your interest and has you hoping the right decision is made by Cy and that Jolie forgives him. While this isn’t like most of the romances that I’ve read, it definitely was one that I enjoyed and found myself wondering what the next volume in the series would be about.

4 Stars

I’ve read other books by Phoebe Alexander and enjoyed them. This was no different. It was a fun, light read with a lot of steamy romance thrown in. It was amusing to see what goes on behind the scenes of the theme park. Cy Sweet is the youngest son of the Sweets, owners of Sweetopia. They send him undercover to work in the bakery to find out who is leading the revolt that’s in the works. The moment Cy lays eyes on the Red Velvet Queen, he quickly gets sidetracked from his objective. The better he gets to know Jolie, the harder he falls. Working in the theme park is an eye opener for Cy. Can their budding romance survive the secrets that they are both hiding?

To be honest, I really didn’t like Cy. He was arrogant, selfish and full of himself; a total spoiled brat. Thankfully he changed throughout the book where by the end, I was on team Cy, cheering him on. It was a fun read and I’m interested to see what happens in part two.

Sugar and Spice by Phoebe Alexander is the first book in the Spicetopia series. This was an excellent, easy to read book and I enjoyed every minute of it from start to finish. The characters were very well developed and lovable. Cy Sweet is going undercover in his family’s children theme park to get the inside scoop on a situation that the Sweets are hoping to prevent from progressing. He is thrown off balance by the beautiful, single mom, Jolie Cox dressed to the T in the Red Velvet Queen costume. The two have a great and sparkling connection although there are many untold truths that lie between them. I loved reading about both Cy and Jolie’s life and watching their personalities come into the light. This is a brilliant book that contains an entertaining plot. I can’t wait to get my hands on the next book in the series.

Sugar & Spice was a great 5 star read.
Once I started I couldn’t put it down, I was pulled right in.

Jolie is a single mom who works as the Red Velvet Queen at Sweetopia and Cy who is known as the black sheep bad boy in his family works in the Cotton Candy Castle bakery.

Cy has been sent to work undercover by his family. When he sees Jolie he was instantly pulled in by her, you could feel the sparks coming off the pages. Jolie is a very hard worker, with two jobs to support her family. When she finds out who Cy is will everything change? What will happen if her secrets come out?

Overall I really enjoyed this book. I really got the undercover boss vibe in this read, which I really enjoyed. All of the characters added a great element to the story and I can’t wait to read more from this series to see what’s coming next. Phoebe Alexander has done a great job once again. 1-click and get started today.

My rating: 5 out of 5 stars

This book was so sweet and also very spicy at the same time. The story line was perfect and the characters are very well written.

Cy and Jolie’s relationship happens pretty quickly, but I do think that Cy falls in love pretty hard and realizes the way he had been living his life until this point needed to change. Jolie is a strong, independent, beautiful, hard working and devoted mother. The fact that she is doing everything she can to make sure her kids have a good life and her youngest son has the medical help he needs is admirable. Jolie being the amazing person she is, rubs off on Cy, which causes the turn around in his outlook.

Cy’s family is a real piece of work! His father, mother and two brothers are extremely greedy, and the way they view the world and what the world owes to them had my mouth hanging open! Their characters were a great added element to this story.

I would highly recommend this book to any romance lover, the story is touching, beautiful and sexy. I can’t wait to see what becomes of Cy and Jolie in the next book!

Sugar & Spice is the first book in the Spicetopia series by Phoebe Alexander. I really loved this book, it is a little different from her other books- but with the same sexy flare we have come to expect from Ms. Alexander.
Cy is on an undercover mission at his family’s theme park. He has a job to do and there is quite a bit at stake. But he’s thrown off-kilter when he meets the delectable Jolie.
Jolie has a few secrets of her own. She works two jobs trying to make ends meet- taking care of her responsibilities is her number one priority. Sparks fly and the heat rises. But what happens when secrets are revealed? You really need some Sugar & Spice in your life to find out all the delicious details for yourself!
After such a sublime introduction to the Spicetopia world, I’m really looking forward to the rest of the series!!!

Thank you, Ms. Alexander!

I’d always been the black sheep of the family. No wonder they picked me to play undercover boss at Sweetopia, the theme park my family owned. While they lounged in the lap of luxury, I’d be donning an apron to serve pastries at Cotton Candy Castle, one of our most popular attractions.

But I was tempted to blow my cover when I met The Red Velvet Queen. She was wearing a costume and a fake jeweled crown, but this woman was absolutely breathtaking. I invented a baker’s dozen reasons to talk to her every day, quickly becoming addicted to her sweet, sugary goodness.

She thought I was just seasonal help. Too bad I was actually her boss. It could never be more than a fling…a fleeting one at that. Flings were what I lived for, so why couldn’t I settle for just one slice instead of wanting the whole damn pie?

Sugar & Spice by Phoebe Alexander is just like her style of book. A great storyline with some drama and a lot of heat.
In this book, Cy is the youngest son of Mr and Mrs Sweet who are the owners of Sweetopia. The workers of Sweetopia are arranging a strike so they bribe Cy to go undercover since no one has really seen him at the park. Cy has to go work a regular job undercover as Marcus Young and find out who is behind everything along with when and where the secret meeting will be. Cy never expected to lay eyes on a woman and be addicted to her immediately. Jolie is The Red Velvet Queen and as soon as they meet, the chemistry is off the charts.
Cy has secrets he’s keeping from Jolie and Jolie has her own secrets she is keeping from Cy. What will happen when secrets are exposed. Will Cy be able to turn his back and go to Greece like he planned or will something happen to keep him from going? This is a story you don’t want to miss out on.

This is an incredible collection of stories. The one I’ll be reviewing is Sugar & Spice (Spicetopia) By Phoebe Alexander. I knew going in I’d like this story since this author is in my top one clicks but it’s was everything I wanted and more. While is aptly named I was so in love with both sugar and spice parts. The characters Jolie and Cy were everything I was searching for, complex, relatable and a chemistry that jumped right off the pages. It’s well written and paced nicely never feeling rushed or lacking anything. The author tells a tale that captured my heart and wouldn’t let go. I’m so excited for more and can’t wait to see where the author takes readers next. I wish I could give more than five stars but five will have to do. I highly recommend this book!

Sugar & Spice (Spicetopia #1) by Phoebe Alexander Featured in the Sweetest Obsessions Boxed Set Collection is a five star novel. I have read other books by this author and have loved them all. I love how the world inside the novel was set inside a theme park for families. Almost like a Disney, but the author was able to make it her own. When Cy goes under cover for his parents, the bosses of the park, he has a hard time finding information and hiding who he is because he at first wants to defend his parents but then it turns to wanting to defend the friends he has made that are real employees for the park. I can’t wait to continue this series!

This review is for Sugar and Spice by Phoebe Alexander. I have to give this book a five out of five stars. The story focuses on Jolie and Marcus. Jolie is a strong independent woman that is used to being in control. Her life requires her to be in control and running into Marcus tests that. Marcus has his own motives but when he runs into Jolie his path is questioned. I had a hard time putting this book down it was so detailed and I just felt drawn to these two characters. I feel the need to read more books by Phoebe Alexander.

I am looking forward to reading more of this box set, but the story I am currently reviewing is Sugar & Spice (Spicetopia, #1) by Phoebe Alexander.

What a great beginning to a new series! This is the story of Cyrus, the youngest son of the owners of Sweet Enterprises, and Jolie, the reigning Red Velvet Queen of Sweetopia, the kid’s park owned by the Sweet family. Cy is tasked with going undercover (with an awesome British accent!) in the park to dig up information on which employees are causing trouble for his family. That is where he meets the Red Velvet Queen and sparks fly! Their attraction to each other is undeniable, but as you will find out, Jolie is not what she seems any more than Cy is! Will the secrets they keep and lies that they tell keep them apart? Who will reign supreme when it’s all over? Who will dominate? Dive in and find out while getting to know all the diverse and interesting characters that are brought to life on these pages!

I am really looking forward to the next installment in this series! Phoebe definitely left me wanting more, more, more!

I read “Sugar & Spice” from the “Sweetest Obsessions” Boxed Set Collection.
I have chosen to review Sugar & Spice by Phoebe Alexander.
WOW where do I begin!
This is a contemporary romance novel.
There is so much love between Jolie and Cy. But as we all know, a series of events will take place. Starting with Cy as the undercover boss. His job was to find out about a boycott in the family business. Jolie is the single mother of 2 young boys, one of which is terminally ill. She works 2 jobs to support her children, and the medical bills that are piling up. That is all I’m going to say about Sugar & Spice. As I will not give away spoilers, you just need to read this story along with the others in the boxed set.

Phoebe Alexander is one of the many authors, I enjoy reading. You will too! Her story is well written and loaded with some hot and steaming romance. Not just that, she has a way to suck up into her books and keep you reading. Her story also has you falling in love with Jolie and Cy. Real people, real life situations and powerful romance. Take this book and start reading, you won’t be sorry! As for Phoebe Alexander, I’m looking forward to your next book.

Sweetest Obessions is a boxset of romance stories. I particularly likes Sugar and Spice by Phoebe Alexander.
This is a great story of how romance can come from the most unlikely of places.

Cy is the son of the Sweet family who own and run a family theme park. They are extremely wealthy but dont treat their staff very well. There is rumours of a uprising by the staff so Cy is sent in undercover to investigate who is behind it.
There he meets Jolie who works are The Red Velvet Queen and starts to fall for her but there are things about her he doesnt know.

Jolie is a single mom to two boys. One of her boys is seriously ill. She struggles to pay the medical bills as The Red Velvet Queen so she also works as a mistress on the side to bring in extra money.

With so many deceptions between them and the potential uprising against Cy parents who will he choice and can their relationship survive?

It was a really enjoyable read, the characters were well written. I really enjoyed it.

Sugar & Spice (Spicetopia #1) by Phoebe Alexander Featured in the Sweetest Obsessions Boxed Set Collection.
I was already a huge fan of Phoebe Alexander having previously read her Eastern Shore Swingers Series, so was excited to read more of her work. This book did not disappoint in the slightest. I truly lived up to the high standards that I’ve grown to expect from Phoebe Alexander.
I adored the 2 main characters and their sexual chemistry was off the charts HOT. As always this author has included some very hot and steamy sex scenes.
Cy Sweet is the undercover boss, using the name Marcus Young, who is working in the family business Sweetopia to find out who is causing disruption amongst the staff. Little did Cy expect that he’d fall for Jolie Cox (The Red Velvet Queen). Jolie is a hardworking single parent struggling to bring up her 2 boys, one of whom has Cytstic Fibrosis. She hates the sweet family and everything they stand for but totally falls for Marcus not knowing his true identity.
This is a really compelling story, seeing Jolie’s struggles to provide for her boys and the lengths that she’s willing to go to, to provide for them. But what will happen when she discovers Marcus’ true identity? Well, I’m not going to give a spoiler, you’ll have to read this fantastic book to find out.

Review of Sugar & Spice featured in the Sweetest Obsessions Boxed Set

By Phoebe Alexander

I absolutely adore this author, I really do! I love the fact the characters she writes about are every day down to earth people, especially the females! They aren’t super skinny, tanned with big chests – she opts for the more curvaceous females who are just absolutely fabulous to read about! And the female lead in the story was no exception she was brilliant! A down to earth single parent who has body hang ups like most women but also was learning how to accept her body! Jolie is probably one of my favourite female leads from Ms Alexander; there was just something about her that made me connect straight away! I loved the setting for the story; a sweet theme park – such an unusual setting for a story –loved it! Alongside the amazing Jolie was ‘Marcus’ – I just loved him! I guess I could predict how the story was going to go but I still loved everything about the two characters and the way in which they met and how their relationship went along. There was the usual steamy scenes in the story, as expected with this author and again as usual they are brilliantly written with a great spice level!!
I am so excited to see what is going to come next in the book, as Ms Alexander does lead us nicely into a second book in the epilogue! I think it’s going to be AMAZING!!!!!! This book definitely deserves more than 5 stars – I loved every single minute of it!

Sugar & Spice (Spicetopia #1) by Phoebe Alexander Featured in the Sweetest Obsessions Boxed Set Collection – Review by Shannon Fowler

Sweetest Obsessions: A Contemporary Romance Boxed Set CollectionSweetest Obsessions: A Contemporary Romance Boxed Set Collection by Jane Anthony
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This box set contains 25 sweet and spicy stories from various authors. As with all box sets you get your fill of amazing stories. Sugar and Spice is just one of those stories! It is book one in the new series by Phoebe Alexander called Spicetopia, but we get it first in this set!

Sugar and Spice is a fun story. Original and different. Our main characters are the Sweet family, specifically Cy Sweet and their workers from Sweetopia, specifically Jolie, the Red Velvet Queen.

Sugar and Spice is a little different than the stories Alexander usually writes. It’s a little “sweeter”. The sex is still spicy but the actual story is sweet. However, once Cy and Jolie get to the hot tub things just might change and lead to a steamier second story!

What a fun and sexy collection of short stories. If you like witty characters and romance to the hilt, you MUST pick this up NOW!

Focusing on one of the short stories, Sugar and Spice by Phoebe Alexander, this establishes the premise of the collection in the best possible way. Wonderful characters and amazing chemistry. Alexander is always a one click author for me and this story maintains that record.

Love this story and collection!
