Publisher's summary

In the tradition of Legends & Lattes, comes a cozy fantasy steeped in sapphic romance about one of the Queen’s private guards and a powerful mage who want to open a bookshop and live happily ever after…if only the world would let them.

All Reyna and Kianthe want is to open a bookshop that serves tea. Worn wooden floors, plants on every table, firelight drifting between the rafters… all complemented by love and good company. Thing is, Reyna works as one of the Queen’s private guards, and Kianthe is the most powerful mage in existence. Leaving their lives isn’t so easy.

But after an assassin takes Reyna hostage, she decides she’s thoroughly done risking her life for a self-centered queen. Meanwhile, Kianthe has been waiting for a chance to flee responsibility–all the better that her girlfriend is on board. Together, they settle in Tawney, a town nestled in the icy tundra near dragon country, and open the shop of their dreams.

What follows is a cozy tale of mishaps, mysteries, and a murderous queen throwing the realm’s biggest temper tantrum. In a story brimming with hurt/comfort and quiet fireside conversations, these two women will discover just what they mean to each other… and the world.

conflict resolution

I sincerely appreciate a romance story written by an author that understands the value of communication and conflict resolution. The narrator was fantastic and the story was beautiful from start to finish, can't wait for book 2!

Beautiful Characters and a Fun World

I came into this book looking for a fun cozy read. And I came out the other side in love with the characters and excited for the next installment. The book itself is written from a fun perspective and the narration really brings these wonderfully characters to life. From here on out all my fantasy treason will be served with Tea!!

Slow moving

So much time is spent on unnecessary background info. The story line is cute, not highly exciting, or captivating, and definitely not like Legends and Lattes. But it is cute and has some promise. Hopefully the second book is better.

Perfectly Punny! A Sapphic Success

I first read this a year ago, back when it was self published, and desperately wanted an audiobook version for transit times. This doesn’t disappoint! It’s an adorable romance, with cozy escapism spice with dollops of adventure. The leading ladies are so cute together and have a very authentic dynamic. Plus! One of them is always cracking puns ❤️

Cute and Cozy

This book wasn't as much like Legends and Lattes as I thought it would be based off other reviews, but it was still cute. It has interesting characters and storyline, but you'll have to wait until book 2 to find out what happens.
