Emma is a guarded, strong-willed barista who has built high walls around her heart to keep the pain of her past at bay. Cold and distant, she's vowed never to let anyone get close again. But everything changes when she meets Aiden-a warm-hearted, sweet-natured artist with a love for painting and an unshakeable belief in the power of love.

Their worlds intertwine in the cozy corners of a quaint café, where Aiden's gentle persistence and infectious optimism start to melt Emma's icy facade. As a slow-burn romance begins to blossom, Emma finds herself drawn to Aiden's kindness, his art, and his unwavering faith in love, even as the shadows of her past threaten to pull her away.

Through moments of tension, humor, and heartfelt confessions, Emma and Aiden embark on a journey of healing, trust, and love. Together, they discover that love isn't just a fleeting feeling but a powerful force that can heal old wounds. And when a beautiful daughter joins their family, Emma learns that true love isn't about perfection but about commitment, shared dreams, and growing together.

No matter how much he loves working in Auntie Mae's Tea shop, baking cakes day in and day out, he can't find it in himself to be happy. He knows exactly what's wrong; he has a dream. His dream is to one day move to Paris and open his own bakery. Baking is his passion, and he wants to devote his life to it. The only problem is that he can't seem to get away from his current life to start a new one. He once told himself his studies were holding him back. When he was done with those, he used the excuse of renovating the entire Tea Shop. Then, when he finally couldn't find any more excuses, he gave up. He knew he was waiting for something to happen. The problem? He didn't know what. But what about that man who recently started visiting the shop? He definitely wasn't one of the regulars; his face, you would recognize. He comes every evening at six o'clock, and stays for an hour. Could he be what Elliot is waiting for? *Deals with self-esteem issues which I've been told might be triggering*
