The Barista's Beloved (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9780998225272)

Return to River Hill, where the coffee isn't the only thing that'll leave you buzzing.

It's been months since whiskey maker Maeve Brennan has been on a date, and she's coming dangerously close to giving up on men altogether--until she crosses paths with River Hill's sexy new barista. But Ben's made it clear he only wants to be friends, so Maeve will definitely stop fantasizing about his forearms. Probably. Maybe.

Former lawyer Ben Worthington never thought he'd be living above his best friend's garage and slinging coffee, but there's a lot about his life that doesn't make sense. Like his attraction to the town's beloved distiller. But since Maeve's made it clear she doesn't have time for romance, Ben will stop dreaming about her naked. Soon. Eventually.

But when the youth center where Maeve volunteers comes under fire from a big-city developer, Ben realizes he's exactly the type of hero she needs. He just hopes she can live with his take-no-prisoners approach to winning, because he's pretty sure he can't live without her.
