Whole Latte Love (Spirit of Hops #3)
J.E. Joyce
Welcome to Rapids Bay, Minnesota, where the coffee is strong, the town is small, and love brews when you least expect it.
Anya
Rapids Bay provided the fresh start I craved after an injury ended my career on the stage. Forever a dancer at heart, now a barista and shop owner by fate. The coffee shop became a project of the heart, a place to heal and build something new when I took over ownership. None of it would have been the same without Alfie Larson. He’s charming, frustrating, and the beating heart of the place. The pull between us has been undeniably strong from day one, and we’ve danced around it for years. The entire town knows we’ve got chemistry, but neither of us has been brave enough to admit anything. Until one fateful night when everything changes, and now I have to face the truth about what I really want–and who I want it with.
Alfie
Born and raised in Rapids Bay, I thought I had everything figured out… until Anya arrived. She’s the coffee shop owner, a former dancer, and the one person who can make me feel content and conflicted in a single heartbeat while pulling a perfect shot. We’ve been dancing, or in my case tripping, around our feelings, but I’ve swallowed them down one cup at a time for years. Until a fire puts everything on the line and opens us up to finally take a chance on what we’ve been avoiding. Now all I have to do is convince Anya to take the leap with me—before her past, and her bitter ex, pull us apart.
In Rapids Bay, it’s a hot brew of sparks, laughs, and a love story that proves sometimes the best things are the ones you’ve been running from but have been there all along. What happens when two people accept fate and give in to the undeniable? Whole Latte Love is a steamy, small-town romance where love is the perfect blend of passion, patience, and just the right amount of sweet.
