She writes love stories. But she wasn't expecting to live in one. After a near-death encounter with a rogue sedan (and a golden retriever named Waffles), burned-out writer Harper Lin wakes up in the arms of a man who seems suspiciously familiar. Like...fictionally familiar. As in: she's pretty sure she wrote him once. Convinced she's either losing her mind or manifesting her own love life through caffeine-fueled Google Docs, Harper sets out to test a theory: if her meet-cutes are coming to life, maybe fate's giving her a second chance at magic. Or maybe she's just concussed. Armed with stubborn hope, a laptop full of chaotic drafts, and her best friend who is so not emotionally equipped for this rollercoaster, Harper dives headfirst into a string of real-world romcom scenarios-from grocery store flirtations to coffee shop disasters-trying to figure out if the universe is meddling... or if she's finally cracked under the pressure of writing the perfect love story.

[Slow Brew Series 1 of 2] [Completed] Look, I didn't mean to embarrass myself the first time I walked into Brewing Grounds. Or the second. Or...every other time since. But something about the place-and the barista with the messy ponytail and the glasses that she pushes up her nose-makes me forget how to form actual sentences. Bea. Her name's Bea. She spelled mine wrong on my cup the first day (Ell-yot Hayul), and now I'm kind of obsessed. Not with her. With medium lattes. With her handwriting. With the little hearts she scribbles on my cups. Okay... maybe a little bit with her. The point is: I'm a walking disaster around her, and I'm pretty sure she knows it. And okay, maybe I started showing up every morning at exactly 7:30 just to see her. And maybe I've been reading up on how to flirt because I thought that might help (it hasn't). But honestly, what's the worst that could happen? I embarrass myself again? (Already done that.) Spill coffee on my tie? (Happened last week.) Accidentally fall in love with the barista who writes flirty notes on my coffee cups? Oh, wait...

[Slow Brew Series 2 of 2] [Completed] Bea's dream was always to open a cozy, charming little book cafe. My dream-me, Jules, it's my story now, bitches-was to avoid unnecessary stress, talking about my own feelings, and James Hale. So naturally, the universe decided to shove all three onto my lap. Now I'm thrust into managing Beaumont's Books & Brews-aka Bea's pride and joy (aka the haunted mess of a coffee shop we're scrubbing, gutting, and dragging into existence from the afterlife). Which would be great... if she didn't have to share the title of "co-owner" with a walking migraine in designer loafers. James Hale. My archnemesis. My best friend's boyfriend's brother. Also, somehow, my boss. We made out once. It was a mistake. A moment of weakness. A tragedy for the history books. And now he's here. Every day. Breathing my air, drinking sugary, over-creamed monstrosities he dares to call coffee, and always-always smirking at me. I take my coffee black. No syrup. No foam art. No pulling out emotional baggage mid-espresso. The way coffee should be. Just pure, tasteful pleasure-with a bitter finish. Welcome to Beaumont's. May the odds be ever in my favor.

Hansu Lee is a twenty-nine-year-old game addict who has devoted almost a decade of his life to beating the notoriously difficult game Dungeon & Stone.

What happens when a man from Earth must masquerade as a stranger he only just met? Well, when the catch is that he's been thrown into an entirely different world, the answer is a headache and a half. Oh, and don't forget-that stranger just so happens to be a new professor at the empire's premier magic academy. Will Gerrard, now Ludger Cherish, be able to blend in amongst the magically gifted? Or will the original Ludger's own sham of an identity come back to bite him?
