From two USA Today bestselling authors comes a tale of miscommunication and muffins.

Romy Love knows weddings. As the author of a hugely successful wedding blog, you’d think she’d have love covered. It is her last name, after all.

When it comes to her big day, Romy has the flowers picked out, a dress collecting dust in the back of her closet, and a preacher on standby. There’s just one problem: the groom doesn’t know it yet.

Romy has eyes for the Italian coffee god and single dad who owns the bakery in her building—she also has plans for his delicious buns—but in order to get her happily-ever-after, she has a few things to check off her list first:

Lose twenty pounds

Take over the blogging world one wedding at a time

Make Coffee Hottie fall in love with me

Yeah, this shouldn’t be difficult at all.

Excerpt:

Confident I no longer look like a cave troll, I grab my keys and wallet and rush downstairs.
Elio is just turning the sign in the window when I virtually slam my body against it because I was running full-tilt down the stairs, and I can’t slow my velocity.
He gives a startled laugh, and I flame bright red.
Elio abandons his ‘closed sign and opens the door.“Hey.”
“Hi. Sorry about that.”
“Couldn’t wait to see me, huh?” His eyes burn with mischief.
I blush and desire arcs through me, because really, it should be illegal for anyone to look that delicious in jeans and a T-shirt with a dishtowel slung over his shoulder.
“Ha! Yeah.” I shake my head.“I mean no. I mean, Coffee. I’m lagging. Please, I’m really sorry. I know you’re closed and you wanna get home, and why wouldn’t you? It’s not like you want to stay at the shop all day when there’s wine to drink and cheese to nibble and classic books to read.”
He frowns.“That’s your impression of me? That I nibble cheese while reading classic literature.” “And the wine,” my mouth supplies unhelpfully.
He chuckles.“You may need a crash course in what men do after work. Here’s a hint: it’s not nibbling anything. Unless, of course, it comes to ear lobes.”
Oh, wow.
Okay.
I would definitely prefer that to an expensive gouda.
He grins.“Come on. I’ll do you better than just a coffee.”
“Excuse me?” I squeak.
Now he laughs outright.“Relax,Romy. My nonna is here, my sister too, and a bossy four-year-old. I promise, I won’t bite.”
Not even if I want you to?

★★★★★ - 5 Stars

I absolutely loved, loved LOVED this story! I have read Carmen’s work before so I knew I would like it, but Lauren is a new to me author. I can’t wait to check out her other work now! Bittersweet is a sweet, a little angsty, and sexy rom-com, and I loved every single second of it!

Romy is just adorable! I loved her character. I felt a strong connection to her, being a larger girl myself I felt that she was really speaking from my heart. She was talking about feelings I felt! I just ave such a strong connection to her. Elio is such an amazing male character. I loved how he was towards his family, I loved how he was towards Romy. Even though some miscommunication happened through out the book it really felt like it was a real life experience. This is what happens in every day life. People are not straight forward with their feelings. It makes the coming together of the characters even more amazing in my opinion.

This book held my interest from the start. I read it really quickly and I just did not want their story to end! I laughed, I felt sad, I felt the connection and heat between Romy and Elio. This book was everything to me and I just thought it was amazing. I loved the writing style and I loved the story line. I seriously can not fault this book in any way at all! I can’t wait to be able to buy this book in paperback. I just want to read it again and again! I received and early copy of this book. Opinions expressed are my own.
