Have you ever felt like a failure in love and life in general? Mia's year has been an epic fail so far - she's lost her job, her apartment, and her boyfriend. But rather than try to regain the man she didn't want or the career that was strangling her soul, she decides to chase her dreams instead. Mostly, she wants to be brave enough to finally commit to a relationship with her divine best friend, Cody, but a crippling fear of failure is holding her back. Luckily, the universe drops Rupert into her lap - the blond, gorgeous front man of the world's most famous rock band. With his irreverent attitude towards life, Rupert is the perfect person to pull Mia out of her shell and show her that sometimes when you fail, you actually win. With her heart torn between the two men, tension soars. As Mia reaches out to grasp everything she's ever wanted, she'll discover that choosing between her best friend and the wild card could end up her biggest failure yet.

18 year old Florence Remy has three things that mean the world to her: Twizzlers, her best friends Ade and Clancy, and her parents' coffee shop the Espresso House in downtown Brooklyn, New York. As a small business amongst huge corporations, Florence and her parents struggle to make ends meet. However, they remain optimistic and happy. The coffee shop may not bring in much, but it's enough to keep them on their feet. But what happens when a group of dangerous Brooklyn mobsters force Florence's parents into giving them co-ownership of the shop? Crime boss and leader Wolfe Sterling takes a great interest in the tunnels that lead past the Espresso House cellar. Dirty business is what he's best at and dragging people into his dangerous (and illegal) activities are no bother. But things go sideways when he also takes a strange interest in Florence. And it really doesn't help that he's hotter than freshly brewed coffee...
