Bittersweet, an all-new hilarious romantic standalone from USA Today bestselling authors Carmen Jenner & Lauren McKellar is available NOW!
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?

****** MY REVIEW *****
Bittersweet is a fast, sweet and exciting story that hooks the reader from the very beginning and keeps the reader enthralled until the very end. Both main characters are very likable and relatable. This is a light, funny romance with extremely funny situations , tons of angsty sweet scenes and the main characters were so sugary sweet and addictive that I totally fell in love with them. Romy and Elio have this push/pull about their romance that even though I am yelling at my kindle , saying enough already, I still find their slow burn romance addictive and sweet. The two hot Aussie authors have this great writing chemistry that I wouldn’t have known it was co-authored because it really appeared to be written in one voice. They totally and completely nailed this story. I loved the main characters and the secondary characters were just as amazing as the main. If I had any criticism, I would have liked a followup to see how the sweet couple were doing after the story ended but it’s a small crit overall. Their love story is amazing and it also shows that what you think you need, you really don’t unless its LOVE. This story has it all- drama, angst, heartbreak, misunderstandings, sexual chemistry, sweetness, tension and true love. This book is a hoot and I loved every moment. This is a true MUST READ!!!!
My Rating: 4.7 stars *****
