Resumen del Editor

Darby Dunwell is not a Bond Girl, though she's been blessed with the body of one. An east coast, ivy-league, trust fund kid, she flees a life of expectation, elocution, and executive board rooms to follow her one true love: Coffee. The deeply eccentric seaside tourist hamlet of Townsend Harbor throws its doors wide open for her sex-positive, bikini-themed coffee shop named Brewbies.

Compulsive rule-follower Sheriff Ethan Townsend is known for helping old ladies across the road, breaking up bar fights, and keeping the sleepy town safe from the flood of seasonal tourists. After having his heart publicly stomped on, he no longer bothers to ask the name of the woman he's going to forget in the morning. A policy he regrets when the woman who blew his mind turns out to be his nemesis. Not only is Darby's salacious coffee shop causing traffic incidents, its proprietress keeps making his life—among other things—as hard as possible.

Darby finds herself embroiled in a feud she never wanted with the cop who is as tight assed as his trousers suggest. But even as their animosity sizzles and the town begins to take sides, Ethan can't seem to keep his eyes off Darby's double D's.

Contains mature themes.

small town feels

I read nevermore bookstore and loved it. Then waited patiently for this book. This really gives me Archer's voice (nevermore bookstore) and Travis (Brewbies) by mia Sheridan vibes. If you read both you'd get what I mean. No they are not identical, or even the same plot. But the small town. The recluse. and in brewbies, the redeemable sheriff. and I say this with high praise and admiration. I loved Nevermore bookstore and Brewbies.

In Brewbies we get to know Darby, the pink haired, freebird, hold nothing back, soft hearted heroine. and Ethan, the sheriff who always tucks his shirt, always polite, and overly helpful Hero. The pair come together for 1 night, where Ethan is not so reserved, then meet again in Ethan's hometown when he serves Darby with a petition to shut down her business. Darby brings an entire circus to town in protest. and the 2 continue to fight and fu... well, you get the picture. Enemies to Lovers. Opposite attract. Romcom. All the small town feels.

I really hope to get more from these authors. I looked for other books from them but only found historical, which I don't read. But for the first time ever was tempted to try, just to get more of author's work. Maybe someday.

5+stars. HEA.

So relevant, so awesome

I both loved and was jealous of Darby's ability to call out the patriarchal b.s. that we have to deal with on the daily. I've really been enjoying these authors writing together, laughing out loud on multiple occasions while also enjoying the story arc. "Riding the emotional short bus" will definitely be incorporated into my vernacular 😂
