Served Hot by Annabeth Albert
4.0
It just goes to show how much I don't pay attention to the length of books I read before I read them? I went into this not knowing it was a short, or at least not a novella length story. I was thinking this is moving fast, and then I realized it was only a little over 100 pages long and I wanted more.
Robby owns a coffee cart and has developed a crush on David, a man who shows up everyday, without fail, to his coffee cart. Robby is pretty shy and wants to ask David out, but the question is how? As short as the story is, it still has the feeling of a slow-burn because it plays out all from Robby's POV and this is a crush that's been developing for a while. The story manages to be a little heart wrenching, but the relationship is sizzling hot. This story also features a POC - Robby is half-Korean! This is a nice, quick read and I'm looking forward to reading more of the Portland Heat stories!
I couldn't flirt and he couldn't pick up signals. Quite the pair.
