"She was grumpy, he was chaos
and somehow, he made her laugh when she swore she never would again."
Rosa Bellini has a routine: wake up alone, drink black coffee, lecture terrified college students, eat a joyless salad, and scowl her way through life. After one heartbreak too many, she's decided love is nothing but a distraction-a sweet dessert she doesn't need.
Enter Alarico Ferrara.
He builds skyscrapers, eats cupcakes for breakfast, and tells the worst jokes known to mankind (he thinks they're hilarious-no one else does). He's loud, chaotic, endlessly cheerful...and he makes it his personal mission to crack the grumpy professor's stone-cold expression.
She's order.
He's chaos.
She's bitter coffee.
He's too much sugar.
And somewhere between banter, arguments, and accidental laughter, Rosa realizes the man she swore she had no time for...might be the one who makes her heart feel like home.
