As a bartender at Terror & Virtue, a swanky New York City cocktail lounge known for its romantic atmosphere and Insta-worthy drinks, Mel has witnessed plenty of disastrous dates. That, coupled with her own romantic life being in shambles, has Mel convinced love doesn’t exist.
Everything changes when Bebe walks into the bar. She’s beautiful, funny, knows her whiskeys—and is happily married to her partner, Kade. Mel’s resigned to forget the whole thing, but Bebe makes her a unique since she and Kade have an open marriage, she’s interested in taking Mel on a date.
What starts as a fun romp turns into a burgeoning relationship, and soon Mel is trying all sorts of things she’d been avoiding, from grand romantic gestures to steamy exploits. Mel even gets the self-confidence to enter a cocktail competition that would make her dream of opening her own bar a reality. In the chaotic whirl of all these new experiences, Mel realizes there might be a spark between her and Kade, too. As Bebe, Kade, and Mel explore their connections, Mel begins to think that real love might be more expansive than she ever thought possible.

My Review: Mel doesn’t believe in love anymore. In fact, she avoids it at all costs. When the alluring Bebe and aloof Kade come into her life, she finds herself having to confront her thoughts on relationships. At the same time, an exciting opportunity arises to compete for career changing prize money. With so much change occurring in her life, will Mel be able to cope?
This book was delightful! It was a low-angst romance book. There were many tender moments that made me swoon. This was the first book I’ve read that exhibited polyamory. I loved all of the healthy communication that was going on. I’m also a sucker for “person that seems uninterested is actually very interested” trope. I’m not sure if that has a better name, but I eat it up every time. I recommend this book to romance lovers who are looking for a warm and cozy type of love story.
