The Book

She’s a single mom with no time for romance. He’s her brother’s best friend, back in town to escape the chaos of city life. Can a childhood crush grow into forever, or will old fears and loyalties keep them apart?

Ashlan Dewitt is busy juggling her roles as assistant manager of the Coffee Loft and single mom to her five-year-old son, Ezra. After her ex walked out before Ezra was born, Ashlan locked her heart away, determined to protect herself and her son. But when Beau Travers, her brother’s ruggedly handsome best friend, moves back to their small town, her resolve begins to waver.

Beau has always harbored feelings for Ashlan, but the unspoken rule about not dating his best friend’s sister kept him at bay. Now, back in the mountains to find peace from the pressures of city life, he realizes Ashlan might just be the missing piece in his dream of a family and a simpler, slower-paced future.

As sparks fly and feelings deepen, Beau must decide if he’s willing to risk his friendship to pursue the woman he loves. And Ashlan must find the courage to trust again, or she might let her shot at happiness slip away.

The Coffee Loft is back with another collection of cozy, stand-alone sweet romcoms—this time served with an extra shot of rugged charm!

Book Review

A Brewtiful Kind of Love is part of The Coffee Loft: Mountain Brew collection. This is a multi-author series of a standalone reads that all feature a Coffee Loft shop. 

This was such a cute addition to the Coffee Loft series! Brother's best friend is always a favorite of mine and I thought this one was done really well. Beau and Ashlan had had feelings for each other for quite some time but never acted on them because of her brother. But when he moves back to town and the two find themselves spending more time together, the sparks are too much to deny. They had such an easy chemistry, and I loved seeing how he not just cared for her, but for her son Ezra too. This was a short and cozy read that felt like curling up with a cozy blanket and a warm cup of coffee... and I couldn't get enough. While much of the story takes place around the holidays, this definitely felt more like a winter read than a holiday one--- perfect for this time of year. 

A Brewtiful Kind of Love is a closed-door romance with kisses only and no language.
