As their interactions unfold, a unique bond begins 'brewing,' from annoyance to friendship, and perhaps even the prospect of romance.

Struggling with feelings of loneliness among the happy staff, Jane feels further ostracized when Kitty refuses to discuss Matt, who used to live in the bedroom Jane took over and who left under mysterious circumstances.

Moe Rivas has spent her whole life waiting for the perfect storybook romance, but as she approaches her senior year of college -- single, and incredibly disappointed with the male species -- she decides she's sick of daydreaming. Turning her back on love, Moe hooks up with Theo Landing, the grumpy barista from her favorite coffee shop. And it goes a little too well. Eager to explore something casual, Moe proposes a friends-with-benefits relationship, and Theo, burned by an ex's betrayal, agrees to the arrangement.

Medium Latte for Ell-yot Hayul, écrit par gemmalanebooks

[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...

Happily ever hookup. (Book #2), écrit par LaylaJ2711

***COMPLETE*** Book #2 in the hookup series - MUST READ THE FIRST BOOK in order for this one to make any sort of sense. "Keep doing that and I'll be forced to throw you over my shoulder and take you home" "Really?" I smirk turning toward him knowing how much I'm turning him on. "Why?" "You know fine well why" he says, his eyes flooded with lust. "This scrap of material you're wearing isn't doing anything to help" "You mean my dress?" I ask feigning innocents as I brush my lips across his neck. "If you can call it that" Hunter responds looking down at my attire. "What else would I call it?" I bat my eyelashes playfully and Hunters teeth grind together. "A fucking test of my self control" He growls into my ear and I full on laugh. I love that I still affect him the way I do.
