Caffeine addict, Freya Emerson, often finds her heart hammering away when she's at her local coffeehouse. But it's not the java giving her the jitters - it's the hottie she knows only by his drink of choice: Espresso Macchiato. When Espresso Macchiato starts passing her flirty notes, Freya's thrilled at first, but as the quirky courtship progresses, her preconceptions step in to complicate things.

A note from the author:

Espresso Macchiato is a little different from what you might expect. Rather than being a precursor to the story, in fact the cute meet IS the story. I wanted to write a short, slice-of-life kind of tale about magic of beginnings - when anything is possible. I know the ambiguous ending isn't for everyone, but it's my hope that for those readers who don't mind the indefinite conclusion, it will send your imaginations soaring.
