About the Book:
Trina Baxter is a bartender and barista who has sworn off men to focus on her dream of running her own establishment. Little does she know that what begins as a spilled drink turns into a whirlwind romance with a very sexy college professor.

Devin Robinson is an English professor at the University of Chicago. When he discovers that he is in the running to become head of the department, he decides he needs a high profile, successful woman at his side. When he falls head over heels for Trina, Devin begins to question everything he knows about love.
 
My review:
Well-crafted short and breezy romance set in contemporary Chicago. Two people who are unlikely lovers meets over spilled drinks and friendly encouragement and hook up despite having little in common. Devin, an academic on track for university department chair, introduces barista barmaid Trina with plans of owning her own business someday to different foods and films while Trina shows Devin what a comfortable intact family could be.
 
Both have control issues and each have anxieties about their futures, though for different reasons. With their friends both rooting for and warning them about broken hearts, readers will cheer them on, hoping they can find a comfortable middle road as they teach each other about finding and keeping love.
 
Told in alternating viewpoints, this sweet short story will gift romance readers and nice entertaining bite of charm.
