While not my favorite book by the author, I did really like the relationship between January and Gus. They felt very real and fleshed out as characters, and their misunderstandings were not dragged out since they communicated quickly. I heard that there were different endings for this book, depending on whether you read the US or UK version and I think I would have preferred reading the UK ending. Since it makes more sense to me character and story wise.

This cozy fantasy was so gooooood!!!!!! I freaking loved all the characters so much! The relationships between them were so cute and adorable. Most of the conflicts were low stakes and even the "high stakes ones" were resolved nicely. I read through it so fast and adored every single moment. If you want to read a book about a retired fighter that opens up a coffee shop in a small town, who meets friends that help her settle in and make her dream of a peaceful life reality, then this is definitely the book for you!
