For The Love Of Coffee - Fated Mates, #1

"When the world was newly formed, and the gods were at the peak of their power, there was a contest to create the best, most devoted, subjects." From Rexi Lake comes a new series, one that explores the hidden world of the Imagi, mythical beings who aren't as mythical as we'd like to believe. The Imagi aren't the only ones hiding in plain sight. As they try to live their lives among humans without being detected, they have no idea that a threat exists as well.
What will happen when that hidden threat becomes all too real?Love is in the Air, and it Smells Like Coffee. Cherry Marshall is a speaks-her-mind, fun-with-flair, and glass-overflowing type of person. She owns her own little coffee cafe, has great friends, wonderful customers, and life is good. Until a pipe bursts and leaves her closing the cafe for the first time ever. That's when Austin Jameson enters her life and things that were bringing her down suddenly begin looking up. Austin has his pride, his friends, his job.
What he doesn't have, or expect, is a mate. Then he gets a call to renovate a small coffee shop and he's blindsided by the owner. The feisty and interesting human is his mate. As he struggles to hold back the lion inside him that wants to jump forward and claim her, he faces a problem. No matter how badly he might want to put his mark on the sweet and beautiful Cherry, she's human and knows nothing about shifters. If Austin reveals the truth, will she laugh, or will she decide to take a chance on a love that would be stronger than a dozen shots of espresso?
