‘Gives off the same level of endorphins as taking a sip of an actual pumpkin spice latte… all the makings of a top tier Hallmark movie that happens to include a nice dash of spice’—People

‘With a name this cute and a cover this autumnal, how could I not cozy up with my blanket and relax with this adoring book?’—New York Post

When Jeanie’s aunt gifts her the beloved Pumpkin Spice Café in the small town of Dream Harbor, Jeanie jumps at the chance for a fresh start away from her very dull desk job.

Logan is a local farmer who avoids Dream Harbor’s gossip at all costs. But Jeanie’s arrival disrupts Logan’s routine and he wants nothing to do with the irritatingly upbeat new girl, except that he finds himself inexplicably drawn to her.

Will Jeanie’s happy-go-lucky attitude win over the grumpy-but-gorgeous Logan, or has this city girl found the one person in town who won’t fall for her charm, or her pumpkin spice lattes…

The Pumpkin Spice Café is a cozy romantic novel with a grumpy x sunshine dynamic, a small-town setting and a HEA guaranteed!

    Truth be told, I don’t particularly like Pumpkin Spiced anything. Drink, candle, soap, etc. I’m not a fan BUT I appreciate how integral this flavor is to the autumnal culture. And I freakin’ love autumn. So when I stumbled upon this title I had to give it a try. Then Jeanie was adorably awkward and Logan loved on a rescue alpaca named Harry Styles (those who know my love for this man know how googley eyed I went when I read the llama’s name) and I was hooked. Jeanie and Logan are perfection, add the nosey well meaning townsfolk and a little character growth and you’ve got a wonderfully dreamy autumn rom-com. And even better, there are three more books in this world of Dream Harbor… and I am certainly a Dreamer.

    At least he went to therapy at the end🧡 Joke aside, I really enjoyed this (pumpkin) spicy read. The build up of romance and sexual tension was just right in my opinion, and it’s a perfect book to read over the weekend with your favorite autumn playlist and a soft blanket. I’m not a pumpkin spice girlie, but this is my similar autumnal guilty pleasure. 🍁

    It started good and had promise but went downhill with the miscommunication trope and Logan became so annoying. Writing is terrible but maybe that’s why this was one dollar…..
