Stevie has big dreams for her life, but she hasn't quite figured them out yet. All she knows is that she wants to be more than a coffee shop manager for eternity- and she's too busy figuring it out to pay attention to boys. However, when she invites local celebrity musician, Jamie Collins, to come work at the store, she can't seem to shake how badly she wants him. The kicker? He isn't over his ex, and even less interested in romance than she is. Can Stevie handle just taking a small sip to see what its like, or is she going to be tempted to pour herself a big cup?
