I am quite possibly one of the only people in the world that can't stand coffee。 Fortunately， it seems I am all for romances involving coffee billionaires。 Especially， grumpy single dads and his sunny enemy。 This book does a good job at not falling into the tropes and making the characters more well rounded。 They both have their short comings as well as good qualities。 And they are great together。 There is some angst thrown in which just makes the HEA even sweeter。 I am quite possibly one of the only people in the world that can't stand coffee。 Fortunately， it seems I am all for romances involving coffee billionaires。 Especially， grumpy single dads and his sunny enemy。 This book does a good job at not falling into the tropes and making the characters more well rounded。 They both have their short comings as well as good qualities。 And they are great together。 There is some angst thrown in which just makes the HEA even sweeter。 。。。more

One Bossy DareBy Nicole SnowWonderful Romance Driven by CoffeeOne Bossy Dare by Nicole Snow revolves around coffee and even though I’m not a coffee fan， I still enjoyed reading the book。 Eliza Angelo， who was obsessed with coffee， developed her own blends and often tested them at a homeless camp in Seattle。 She stopped in at the local Wired Cup coffee shop to sample their latest coffee flavor and compare it against her latest blend。 While she was there， a man and his followers came into the shop One Bossy DareBy Nicole SnowWonderful Romance Driven by CoffeeOne Bossy Dare by Nicole Snow revolves around coffee and even though I’m not a coffee fan， I still enjoyed reading the book。 Eliza Angelo， who was obsessed with coffee， developed her own blends and often tested them at a homeless camp in Seattle。 She stopped in at the local Wired Cup coffee shop to sample their latest coffee flavor and compare it against her latest blend。 While she was there， a man and his followers came into the shop and blasted the new drink and the barista， Wayne。 She didn’t like someone coming down on Wayne and interjected a lot more than her 50 cents worth until she belatedly realized that the man was really Cole Lancaster， the CEO of Wired Cup。 Making a quick escape， she inadvertently left behind a mason jar containing her latest brew。 Cole’s daughter Destiny， sampled the contents and got her father’s attention。 He also sampled the brew and realized it was just the blend the company was looking for。 He promised Wayne a $10，000 bonus if he could get Eliza to agree to come in to talk with him。That sets the stage for this complex but heartwarming novel。 It had a lot of fire and steam between the two protagonists， a number of mysteries and a chilling， stunning climax。 There’s something for any romance reader to enjoy in this book。 The world building was detailed and fantastic， especially the parts of the novel that take place in Hawaii。 The character development was superb as each protagonist was forced to face their pasts and learn how to deal with their future。 The relationship between Eliza and Destiny was sweet and brought fulfillment to each of them。 And of course， there was an antagonist， but I won’t let you know who it is – you’ve got to read the book for that！ Altogether， this was a wonderful book and I highly recommend it。 Great job， Nicole！My rating: 5 Stars！。I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review。 。。。more

What a book！ I could not put it down， I stayed up and read it through the night。Everything you could ever want in a book— romance， humour， intrigue， hot steamy sex scenes and topped off with danger。 Ms Snow has done a fabulous job building such believable characters and you have enough time in the book to really get to know each of them。I highly recommend this book。I received a free copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review

The interactions between Eliza and Cole are often really funny。 She simply does not put up with any bad behaviour。 Cole is unexpectedly attracted to her despite or in spite of her smart mouth but both of them hold back from completely embracing their relationship for several reasons。 Trouble has them reassessing everything。 They are both strong characters and the whole story is really well written and enjoyable。 There are a lot of emotional moments， lots of suspense， a lot of coffee and a lot of The interactions between Eliza and Cole are often really funny。 She simply does not put up with any bad behaviour。 Cole is unexpectedly attracted to her despite or in spite of her smart mouth but both of them hold back from completely embracing their relationship for several reasons。 Trouble has them reassessing everything。 They are both strong characters and the whole story is really well written and enjoyable。 There are a lot of emotional moments， lots of suspense， a lot of coffee and a lot of fun。 Eliza's vow to Destiny was emotionally beautiful。I received an ARC of this book from Booksprout but voluntarily leave this review。 。。。more

Eliza brewed her way to Cole’s heart when she met him。 She left a lasting impression he hadn’t felt in over 10 years！ Nicole Snow is positively amazing one again and the barbs they tossed at one another slowly become so much more。
