From the author of Meet Cute Diary comes a delectable rom-com thatโs brimming with zest and a sprinkle of sweetness. A must-read for fans of Casey McQuiston and Julian Winters.
Theo Mori and Gabriel Moreno have always been at odds. Their parents own rival businessesโan Asian American cafรฉ and a Puerto Rican bakeryโand Gabiโs lack of coordination has cost their soccer team too many games to count.
Stuck in the closet and scared to pursue his own dreams, Gabi sees his familyโs shop as his future. Stuck under the weight of his parentsโ expectations, Theoโs best shot at leaving Vermont means first ensuring his parentsโ livelihood is secure.ย
So when a new fusion cafรฉ threatens both shops, Theo and Gabi realize an unfortunate truthโthey can only achieve their goals by working together to cook up an underground snack operation and win back their customers. But can they put aside their differences long enough to save their parentsโ shops, or will the new feelings between them boil over?
