Born into a family of readers, P.N. gained a love reading as a sort of herd mentality. This love of reading has remained a life long passion, resulting in an English Degree from The University of Houston in Houston, Texas. She normally reads three to four books at any given time, in the futile Sisyphean hope of whittling down her ever growing to be read pile of no specific genre.

We’ve made it to August, y’all! Summer is almost over, which is hard to believe — even harder, I’m sure, for the students and teachers who are gearing up to go back to school here in the US. However, there is still some time to enjoy the last few weeks of summer. So I hope that you and yours make the best of them.

I have quite a few goodies for you today, including an adorable bookmark, a real-life book boyfriend, and some coffee-adjacent love. With that said, let’s get to it!

In addition to being a barista, Cameran is the owner of Loves & Lattes, which is a frequent stop for Julie’s daily commute. While they two engage in friendly and sometimes flirty banter over coffee making, it seems that is all their relationship will ever be. That is until one of Julie’s exes comes back to town, and she asks Cameran to be her pretend girlfriend for the duration of the visit. Soon, the kisses feel like more than an act, and the two begin to wonder what would happen if they decided to make this real.

Shoulda Been a Cowboy by Maisey Yates

When Jake returns to Copper Ridge to sell his father’s property, he’s surprised to run into sweet Cassie, the one girl he kept his distance from as a rebellious youth, or to be staying above her coffee shop while he settles business. He’s also surprised to discover that Cassie has always carried a torch for him and that, after a lifetime of playing by everybody’s rules of etiquette, she’s ready to throw caution to the wind and do what she wants for once. And the first item on that list is none other than Jake.

And that’s all she wrote for today. If you’re ever interested in what I do between the sends, you can always give me a follow over on Instagram under @pns_bookish_world. Until then, happy reading, and stay hydrated!
