Brewing Up Trouble (A Whispering Falls Sweet Short Story #5)
JC Savoy

Nora Tate likes her life like she likes her coffee—strong, structured, and absolutely spill-free. But when Jake Ellis, a wandering freelance writer with a grin as messy as his note-filled backpack, strolls into her café and distracts her mid-pour, the result is a ruined latte, a stained shirt, and a challenge she never saw coming.
What starts as a harmless bet—one lesson in espresso for one lesson in letting go—quickly turns into a flurry of frosting disasters, late-night stargazing, and surprise raccoons (in latte form, of course). Jake isn’t supposed to stick around. Nora isn’t supposed to care. And yet, the more time they spend together, the harder it is to deny that something’s brewing… and it’s not just the coffee.
Filled with sweet steam, small-town sass, and the kind of slow-burn romance that sneaks up when you least expect it, Brewing Up Trouble is a cozy, caffeine-fueled love story with heart—and just a hint of cinnamon.
