She thinks she's just there to read and people-watch, but her daily cappuccinos come with a side of Jamie's poorly disguised crush. Armed with awkward smiles and accidental mix-ups, their friendship brews slowly over spilled coffee and shared laughs. But when notes start dropping and secrets spill faster than coffee, Jamie and Ava must decide if what they have is just a caffeinated crush or the kind of love that's worth writing about. Pour yourself a short cup of romance and join Jamie and Ava as they discover that love-much like coffee-is best served hot and often leaves a lingering taste of sweet, sweet chaos.Complete

The Coffee Shop
There was something different about this coffee shop. I had been coming here for eight years and I just couldn't find myself ever losing interest in it. I just kept coming back. Whether it was to enjoy their delicious drinks and treats or just to relax and think. Or maybe it was just to enjoy and admire the flamboyant woman behind the counter. Mature Language involved. This is my first time writing a story like this. It is a work of fiction and is not a true depiction, any similarities (names and places) to things in real life are purely coincidental.Complete
