19-year-old Jane, newly-single, moves to London to work for her friend, Kitty. But Kitty is hiding something about the café - and about Jane and Kitty's past.
 
                                                                      *****
 
If you looked at her Instagram, you'd think Jane had the perfect life. But a family tragedy and a big break up shatters that illusion, prompting Jane to drop out of university and move to London. She gets a room above a bookstore and a job as a barista, thanks to her childhood friend Kitty. Struggling with feelings of loneliness among the happy staff, Jane feels further ostracized when Kitty refuses to discuss Matt, who used to live in the bedroom Jane took over and who left under mysterious circumstances. As Jane struggles to find herself, and get the attention of the cute bartender, Harper, she discovers that the Brew Books café is brewing with dark secrets.

Coffee Shop by CrimsonLuck

Every day at eight in the morning, a young woman sits at the window of her favourite coffee shop in London, enjoying her wake up mug of coffee. Everyday at eight o' ten in the morning, a young man strolls past the window of his favourite coffee shop in London, to see the lady sat in the coffee shop window. Things to Consider when Reading: This book as of February 2023 has gone under major editing since it was first written beginning 2017. I will not be editing it further, but in no means do I think it's perfect or no longer cringey, I just need to leave it be before I end up changing the whole plot. This book was written when I was in year 10/Freshman in High school. It's cringey, I wanted to be edgy. I'm so genuinely embarrassed by it that I can't bring myself to read the comments past the first few chapters. Don't judge, be kind to my young, edgy, emo self.

Call It A Royal Cliché by Avaniti

A fairytale kingdom A Crowned Prince A girl with a lost identity Love Betrayal Heartbreak and Friendships With all the above ingredients in a story won't you call it a royal cliché? ******** "Have we ever met before Miss Walsh?" Dread crept through me and with my ass half suspended in the air I answered him... "No... No I... umm... I don't think so," Oh God this is not going well. "I mean yes, if you have ever been to the Black Bean Café down on the 6th street. I used to work there as a barista or maybe at the metro station? Sure you must have seen me before." METRO STATION? What is wrong with me? ********* "Nicholas, try to understand. What if she comes back?" "She isn't going to..." he says frustrated. The next words were unclear so I press my ear to the wall, as he says, "... and that is why I am going to convince the King of Astéria, Mr. Wellington I mean, and the other Board Members in the next board meeting to hand over her share in the company to me. I will then..." Anger surges through me, tears fill my eyes and I run from there as fast as my heels could take me and hide in the ladies room. ********** [word count: 100000-105000]

Leaking Infinity by tisiclem

Camberlyn is no ordinary girl; his name's actually Cameron, but no one knows that yet, not even himself. Adjusting to college life has had no hitches so far, but then, he realises 3 things: 1. He's into Rachel, an awesome new close friend of his; 2. Rachel is, for some reason, into Cameron as well, and; 3. They're together now, even if they're the only ones who know it. Oh, and they're roommates. (Oh my God, they're roommates.) Now, Cameron has to juggle between maintaining a secret relationship, reconnecting with an estranged family member and an estranged friend, not to mention hiding his "I have a girlfriend" situation from his parents. And also his "I'm into girls" situation. But of course, everything's not fine, even if Cameron pretends it is. When he has to choose between keeping his parents happy and keeping his own happiness, he has to learn how useless it is to pretend to be Camberlyn, before the choice is taken from him. .
