After a lifetime of bounties and bloodshed, Viv is hanging up her sword for the last time.

The battle-weary orc aims to start fresh, opening the first ever coffee shop in the city of Thune. But old and new rivals stand in the way of success – not to mention the fact that no one has the faintest idea what coffee actually is.

If Viv wants to put the blade behind her and make her plans a reality, she won’t be able to go it alone.

But the true rewards of the uncharted path are the travelers you meet along the way. And whether drawn together by ancient magic, flaky pastry, or a freshly brewed cup, they may become partners, family, and something deeper than she ever could have dreamed.

“Take a break from epic battles and saving the world. Legends & Lattes is a low-stakes fantasy that delivers exactly what’s advertised: a wholesome, cozy novel that feels like a warm hug. This is my new comfort read.”–Genevieve Gornichec, author of The Witch’s Heart

Gornichec is goofin’, there are at least 4 epic battles in the series.

If you are looking for some lighter fare to dive into due to present stressors in the world, and you enjoy fantasy genre stuff, this is the book for you. So unfortunately for myself, I read both this book and the prequel already. If you have read these already, perhaps you could recommend something fun in the same vein?

A note for some readers: Some people get thrown by the “romance” tag that many have filed these under. They are tame. There are romantic plot elements, not sex scenes. Content is PG-13 and written so that the very prude can feign total ignorance.

Both are fabulous books! Can’t recommend them enough to anyone looking for some good cozy fantasy.
