Why we love this

Jeanie inherits a café in a town called Dream Harbor and leaves a very dull desk job for it without much deliberation. Logan is a farmer who avoids gossip and finds her relentless cheer both unbearable and impossible to ignore. Grumpy and sunshine, cozy, and the first of the series.

What you are in for

**A spicy small-town romance and TikTok phenomenon, perfect for fans of Hannah Grace and Stephanie Archer.**

When Jeanie’s aunt gifts her the beloved Pumpkin Spice Café in the small town of Dream Harbor, Jeanie jumps at the chance for a fresh start away from her very dull desk job.

Logan is a local farmer who avoids Dream Harbor’s gossip at all costs. But Jeanie’s arrival disrupts Logan’s routine and he wants nothing to do with the irritatingly upbeat new girl, except that he finds himself inexplicably drawn to her.

Will Jeanie’s happy-go-lucky attitude win over the grumpy-but-gorgeous Logan, or has this city girl found the one person in town who won’t fall for her charm, or her pumpkin spice lattes…

**The Pumpkin Spice Café is a cozy romantic mystery for fans of Gilmore Girls, with a grumpy x sunshine dynamic, a small-town setting and a HEA guaranteed!**

Tropes:

• grumpy x sunshine
• small town
• found family
• spicy
