"You don't have to prove anything to me, Selene. You are not someone I learned to accept... you are someone I was meant to love." - Dominic Alarcon
**********
Dominic Alarcon has everything-power, wealth, and a reputation as the ruthless CEO of Alarcon Enterprises. He's used to skyscrapers, five-star hotels, and deals that make or break empires. Emotions are liabilities, and love? A distraction he buried a long time ago.
But when a business trip leads him to the quiet town of San Felipe, he stumbles upon Café Kalinaw, a quaint little coffee shop run by the enigmatic and warm-hearted Selene Cruz-a transgender woman whose strength and sincerity immediately unsettle his carefully built walls.
Selene's café is her sanctuary. After years of fighting for acceptance, she's found peace in the aroma of coffee beans and the laughter of loyal customers. The last thing she expects is for a cold-blooded tycoon to walk into her life-and slowly, into her heart.
What begins as a clashing of worlds soon turns into late-night conversations, accidental smiles, and the stirrings of something neither of them expected. But when Dominic's high-profile world starts to threaten Selene's quiet one, they must both decide: is love worth risking everything for?

Blessed and Broken -- An Espresseleine Story
Lonely. That's what Madeleine's been ever since the mage left. Sure, he has other people. He has his fans, he has Latte, he has the Divine who so graciously granted him that pair of feathered wings upon his back. But it's just not the same, not anymore. Not without Espresso. So when he finally gets the chance to meet the man he once loved yet again, he won't pass up the chance to protect him. He won't let him go again, even if it means fighting until his very last breath. --- This story is an AU where everyone's "human", just with food names. There are actually quite a few nonhumans/monsters, both turned and born. Madeleine is a turned creature, given wings and feathers by the Divine. There are many other such creatures, including Espresso. If that makes you uncomfortable in any way, you've been warned. You don't have to read this, you know. Also there's gay (of course) and they're both transgender because I said so and I wanted to make Madeleine suffer period cramps. Don't be homophobic. I probably won't be adding smut to this one (though if I make a book 2 there might be), so don't get your hopes up. --- This cover was done by me in watercolor! I'm not bothering to add words to it. Average word count per chapter is 2-3k words. I'm trying my best with grammar and spacing, so I think it's clear what's going on. My first serious fic, yippee!
