I just wanted to get my hands on his beans.

Four years ago, I had a ridiculous crush on my sister's boyfriend. But when they moved away together, I put Beck out of my mind and my heart. But now he's back, and roasting the best coffee in Vermont. I need to convince him to supply the Busy Bean. And I need more of those kisses we accidentally shared outside the coffee shop. He still makes my heart race faster than a triple shot of espresso.

She should be off limits, but instead, she's pushing mine.

Her sister burned my life to the ground, so Haley Elliot is the last woman I should bring into my bed. Although our business relationship is giving way to something more than a fine grind. Neither of us can help ourselves. And what's worse, I think I'm falling for her.

But it's a small town, and ours is a big secret. And when her sister blows back into town, suddenly the coffee isn't the only thing brewing....

Contains mature themes.

Yes, there was drama, but it was interesting. All those big misunderstandings due to bad communication get so old in this genre. Glad this story doesn’t have it

Love that there was no bg misunderstanding!

Sometimes stories are about just perceived issues or unnecessary angst but not here. I appreciated an actual issue that the couple and a family needed to navigate. I am so excited to listen to the rest of the stories in this series or by this author. I can’t believe they are included in Audible plus right now but if they weren’t I would happily support this author. Over 700 books in my collection…. I’ve never received any titles from an author…. I love supporting authors that help me get through all my momma chores. Thanks Sarah Mayberry

Refreshing to hear a couple navigating together

Man I just loved the chemistry between these two. The tension build-up all the way to the river scene, was really well done! Overall, I just thought the relationship between these two was so sweet (and hot!).

HOWEVER. Having the love interest be the MFC’s sister‘s ex is really bothersome. But you could make that work if you do one (preferably both) of two things:

1.) justify it with equally questionable behavior on the other side of the table (I.e. sister steals MFC’s boyfriend beforehand, etc.). To me, mental health issues and even the inherent toxicity of the sister still did not justify getting together with her ex and not communicating it to her.

And 2.) a discussion needs to be had. Period. Alllll of this tension, the very conflict between Beck & Hailey began BECAUSE OF THE SISTER BEING HIS EX! How do you not properly resolve this? I find it infuriating and positively unbelievable that there was no real resolution to this, especially given the entire conflict was centered on this the entire book. This was a big miss in my opinion. I don’t buy (or accept) having your parents have the conversation for you (what?!). Both Beck & Hailey needed to have the conversation with the sister. It’s egregious to have left this out of the story.

Great chemistry, but a gaping pothole

Slight spoiler warning on topics / trigger warnings discussed in the book. ⚠️

I accidentally downloaded this story and decided why not give it a listen. I’m so glad I did. While the love story is a very sweet one, what really struck me was how the author does an amazing job touching on challenging subjects like mental health, toxic family dynamics, and attempted suicide in such an approachable way.

All too often the romance books skirt real-world issues. Not only was that not the case here, they were brought out into the daylight and dealt with in a way that was affirming and positive.

Looking forward to digging into the rest of this series.
