The Harlem Blend

Amber Drew has three things figured out - her job at Beans in a Cup, her two cats, and the exact amount of attitude required to survive a Monday morning in Harlem.

Men are not on the list.

Then a man in a tailored suit walks into her coffee shop, watches her argue with a customer about foam for twenty minutes, and decides she's the most interesting thing he's seen all year. Carlos Mendez - CEO, chaos in a charcoal jacket, and the kind of dangerous that doesn't announce itself until it's already too close - leaves her his number and walks out like he already knows she'll use it.
She uses it.
And that's where the trouble starts.
Because Carlos isn't the only one paying attention. There's the man from her neighborhood who never forgot her. There's the one with street edge and a smile she should absolutely not trust. And there's the quiet one - the soft one - who has been right there the whole time, loving her in a language she hasn't learned to read yet.
Four men. One woman just trying to keep the coffee beans from burning.
Harlem doesn't do anything simple - and neither does love.
