I think this series has achieved an almost cult-like status on social media and I got curious as to why.

Pumpkin Spice Café is a sweet contemporary romance with a teeny amount of spice between our leading couple farmer Logan, and new arrival and café owner, Jeannie. Reading it as the autumn rain came down and winds blew had me feeling that same contentment you get with a Hallmark movie. You know without a doubt the two are going to be a 'happy ever after', but there's that journey you have to go on with them that have you swept away into the picturesque New England town of Dream Harbour.

I would happily live there given the dreamy (excuse the pun) sounding stores, nosy neighbours and community spirit. It sounds like every small town where everyone knows everyone and there are little problems and who wouldn't welcome that these days?

This is a perfect book for the lover of boy meets girl, and they're the missing pieces to one another. I understand just why romance readers seem to love it because it's got everything to sweep you away from the cold nights and stormy skies.
