Just His Barista is book 5 of Donna Jeffries Southern Roots Sweet RomCom series! It is the first book that I have read by her and it can easily be read as a standalone. Macie and Coy are the stars of this book.
Macie has worked for Legendary Brew for years as a barista but more recently became co-owner when Coy was at risk of losing the family business. Although they have known each other for some time, their feelings don’t come out until Macie posts on social media looking for a date to her best friend's wedding. Coy immediately jumps at the chance to be closer to Macie since he has had a secret crush on her for the past five years. Macie decides that it would be best to get some practice dates in before the wedding so that they can get to know each other on a more personal level. While there were some bumps along the way, they realize that they have a lot more than “business partner” feelings. They may be complete opposites but they seem to be perfect for each other!
The coffee shop setting is great! I especially love when their friends come to hang out to catch up with each other - definite FRIENDS vibes there! They are both so passionate for the business…even with blow-ups between them, they can come back and do what's best for Legendary. Their love for each other is quite evident AND their chemistry is off the charts!
I typically prefer dual POVs and I was a little confused once the side characters POVs were brought into the mix. I went back several times to see who was telling the story. I feel like the main focus should have been on Macie and Coy since the other characters already had their stories. I do love this group of friends! They are all so close and supportive of each other and I cannot wait to go back to read their stories too!
Goodness, did that letter from Macie’s mother have me in tears! This quick read is such a sweet, funny romance.
