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...

Her five best friends, Walker, Bradley, Tanner, Mikey and Drew, have always been there or her, and she knows that they always will be. But in between her senior year of high school and personal problems, will one of those friends be there for her more so than the others? And in more than a friendly way? Sydney's never been the one for long overdrawn relationships, simply because the thought of being with someone for extended periods of time frighten her. As her friends like to say, she has severe commitment issues. But maybe, just maybe, if the right guy is their for her, Sydney can find it in her to get past her so called 'commitment issue'. © Copyright 2013 Millie Morgan. All Rights Reserved.
