"What is this about?" you ask, clicking on the little description button.
"Coffee," I answer, rather mysteriously.
"Coffee?" you wonder, puzzlement flooding your face.
"Yes," I answer. "First and foremost this is a story about coffee. A story of steaming cups of deliciousness and how it drastically altered the course of one girl's life."
"How can coffee, regardless of its deliciousness, change one's life?" you ask, about to disregard this story and keep scrolling down.
"That's for you to read and find out," I reply with a mysterious smile. "But I will hint that it involves a girl with a broken heart, a guy with a British accent, laughter, tears, love, heartbreak, and cup after cup of coffee."
You have been warned.

Latte Love
Genevieve Sommers' life was a masterpiece of perfection, painted with vibrant colors of love, success, and adoration. Her career was thriving, and her relationship with Laurel Evans was the epitome of devotion, cherished by all who knew them. But fate, in its infinite unpredictability, shattered this idyllic world in an instant. Laurel was gone, leaving Genevieve with a void that seemed impossible to fill and a promise to keep - a promise that would become the guiding force in her journey toward healing and rediscovery. On the other side of the spectrum was Noemie Everly, a 26-year-old transwoman who had fought tirelessly to carve out her place in the world. As a streamer, she had risen to fame on a popular gaming platform, becoming one of the top streamers in Switzerland. Yet, despite her professional success, Noemie's personal life told a different story. She had been through a string of toxic relationships, each leaving her more disillusioned and guarded. Love, to her, seemed like an unattainable dream, a fleeting illusion that vanished the moment she dared to believe in it. When Genevieve and Noemie's paths crossed in a quaint coffee shop, their lives were at crossroads. Genevieve was navigating the treacherous waters of grief and newfound solitude, while Noemie was on the cusp of a new career opportunity that promised success but threatened to isolate her further. Amidst the chaos of their lives, they found solace in each other's company, their connection sparking like a beacon of hope. As they sipped their coffee and shared their stories, Genevieve and Noemie began to peel away the layers of pain and disappointment that had defined their lives. They discovered that love wasn't just a promise kept or a fairy tale; it was a choice - a choice to be vulnerable, to trust, and to believe in the possibility of happiness after tragedy. In each each other maybe there could be love

Medium Latte for Ell-yot Hayul
[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...

Not a Love Story
(Exactly what it sounds like. It's really not a love story. ) "Do you like me?" You're straight forward I forget that sometimes. I open the drink and look at it as if it were the most interesting thing in the world. I sigh, it's a habit now, and take a gulp. "So?" You ask again. I put the drink on a table next to your bed and sit properly. "I don't know." I say honestly. You didn't seem fazed but you did seem a bit confused. "What do you mean you don't know?" I shrug and decide that the floor is the next best thing to look at. "I like you." I laugh at this and see you don't. "Don't say that. You don't like me. You don't." I say as my smile fell and I looked to your eyes, mine were filled with sadness. But enjoy the book :)Concluida

Jack moves as the light turns green. "You know, if there's one book I haven't read, it's Emma by Jane." "No way." Jack nods. "I'm more on a Kafka vibe now." "Oh?" "I'm reading Letters to Milena." "You are the knife I turn inside myself; that is love. That, my dear, is love." He quotes dramatically. Jack smiles. "It's beautiful. How can he have such a vision of life and be so devastatingly in love with her? It's art." "Definitely a favourite of mine. It's so... pure, so raw. It explains what love is, I think. It's such a vague concept." Jack shrugs. "I don't think you can take his letters as a definition of love. Only you know what it means. Because everyone loves differently." Zach takes in his words. "I see." He hums. "So, to know what love is, one has to be loved." "Not necessarily. You can look at your parents and see that they love each other. Or a random old couple in the park. The love is there. But it's different from everyone else's." He nods slowly. "What's love to you?" "I'll let you figure that one out yourself." Jack smiles softly. "Maybe one day I'll tell you." He shrugs. Zach whines. "Ugh, don't be mysterious." They chuckle as Jack parks the car in front of the coffee shop. Jack turns it off. "I'm letting you explore the mystery because I don't know what love is, just yet." He moves to hold his hand. "Not that it means with you, at least." The brunet feels his lips contort into a smile. "That was so cheesy." He chuckles. He rolls his eyes. "I'm trying to be romantic here." He squeezes his hand.Concluida

Perfect Fate ✔ (Moved To Inkitt)
Wattpad Creator! Happy and proud. HIM: Staying the night? Not my thing. Hearts and flowers? Boring. Falling in love? Not anytime soon. Settling down? Off the table. Getting married? You're kidding me, right? That was me before the night we first met. Because, well, meeting a hot chick that made me hard just by looking at her was definitely not in my plans when I sneaked out of a woman's apartment after what was already a long night. Taking her home and getting her a chocolate cake, though, was kind of intentional. But falling for her? Boy, that was pretty much inevitable. HER: He came out of nowhere, literally. I was there, sitting on that bench, barefoot and crying and just getting my heart broken in peace and silence. Then he appeared, all mad and furious and sexy and tall and just drool-worthy! And just like that, despite my poor attempts of escaping him, he had me wrapped in his world. A crazy yet heart-fluttering world, that I have absolutely no intentions of leaving anytime soon. ------- Character development is a main theme in this book.
