Broken Hearts Café [BxB] ⚣

19-year-old Ryker had finally done it for better or worse. Broken away from his abusive father.

Taking a job at Wilmoria's Café, he hoped for a quiet new beginning- somewhere he could rebuild his life, focus on trying to graduate high school, and rediscover a sense of safety.

But his plan for solitude is quickly upended when he meets Mickey- Micah Jackson- a warm yet complex, rough around the edges 22-year-old baker and recent college grad who's been at the café for years... but seems to be involved in a whole lot more than just a café, judging by the track bike he rides, the money he always has on him, and the mysterious company he keeps.

As Ryker learns the rhythms of his new life- the smell of vanilla treats, fresh bread, and coffee beans; the hum of the espresso machine and the soft laughter of coworkers... Mickey becomes his unexpected constant.

What begins as mutual hatred between them both slowly deepens into something Ryker never thought he could have. Trust. And love.

But healing isn't simple. Between confronting his past, his mistakes, and learning to open his heart to a guy with far too many layers to be just a baker, Ryker must decide whether he can truly believe in a future where he's safe and genuinely loved for who he is, all while he discovers who exactly he is. Perhaps who he wants to be.

"Broken Hearts Café" is a hilarious yet ultimately tender story about rebuilding after trauma, finding family in unexpected places- a café, a biker club- as well as the courage it takes to love again after getting it so utterly wrong the first time.
