The Pumpkin Spice Cafe

Book 1 of a 6 Book Series

Book Summary: 

When Jeanie’s aunt gifts her the beloved Pumpkin Spice Café in the small town of Dream Harbor, Jeanie jumps at the chance for a fresh start away from her very dull desk job.

Logan is a local farmer who avoids Dream Harbor’s gossip at all costs. But Jeanie’s arrival disrupts Logan’s routine and he wants nothing to do with the irritatingly upbeat new girl, except that he finds himself inexplicably drawn to her.

Will Jeanie’s happy-go-lucky attitude win over the grumpy-but-gorgeous Logan, or has this city girl found the one person in town who won’t fall for her charm, or her pumpkin spice lattes…

Mini Review:

The best way to describe this book is as a cozy romance. There isn’t much to it – even the drama and third-act break-up are quickly resolved. In a classic grumpy vs. sunshine scenario, Jeanie tries to find her roots in the small town of Dream Harbor. Meanwhile, Logan tries (and fails) to resist his attraction to her, with the entire town watching their every move. If you’re looking for dramatic moments, huge epiphanies, deep thought, and insight, this book may not be for you. But if you want something to curl up with on a rainy or snowy day, a hot cup of your favorite drink in hand, and just feel good – this is perfect!
