He orders the same thing every single morning. He never expected the barista to change his whole life.
Diccon
Life is pretty great when you work at your family’s coffee shop, which is also a beloved queer community hub. I get to serve coffee, sing terrible order-call harmonies with my best friend and brothers every morning, and flirt with the cutest, most buttoned-up regular Common Grounds has ever seen. Theo Callihan is a gorgeous, green-eyed, buttoned-up architect who orders the exact same plain black coffee every single day like his life depends on it.
I've been crushing on the guy for months and too chicken to do anything about it. So when fate, and a cup of genuinely terrible blueberry coffee, finally throws us together, I'm not wasting my shot.
There's just one teeny, tiny problem. Theo isn't only the hottest customer who's ever made my pulse skip, he's the architect behind the construction project that could shut my family's café down for good.
Turns out falling for someone is a lot more complicated when he might also be the reason you lose everything you love.
Theo
The one thing life has taught me, ever since that one time in second grade I sat on the wrong reading cushion and my whole world fell apart, is to obey the rules at all costs. So getting handed the wrong coffee order at Common Grounds should have ruined my entire week.
Instead, it gave me an excuse to keep talking to Diccon Meyers, the bubbly, infuriatingly easy-to-love barista I've been quietly obsessed with for months. For the first time in my life, breaking my routine feels like exactly the right call.
Until Diccon finds out I'm the architect behind the development project threatening to bury his family's café in eight months of noise, dust, and blocked-off streets. Now I have to prove that falling for him was the one change of plans I got right.
Change of Plans is a sweet-but-steamy MM contemporary romance perfect for fans of grumpy/sunshine pairings, coffee shop meet-cutes, opposites-attract chemistry, slow burn rivals-to-lovers, and small-town found family. With a free-spirited barista hero, a rule-bound architect learning to embrace a little chaos, real stakes around saving a beloved small business, and a guaranteed HEA (no cheating, no cliffhanger), this very low-angst, coffee-soaked series opener is the start of the Common Grounds series.
Genre: Gay Romance
