Much Ado About a Latte by Kathleen Fuller is a wonderful contemporary romance that is the second book in the equally excellent series: A Maple Falls Romance.

I loved the first book, Hooked on You, so I knew I had to read this one. It is just as great as its predecessor.

I loved the sweet, uplifting, clean, and contemporary romance that takes place between Tanner and Anita. Finding love amongst friendship and business can be challenging. Miscommunications, confusion, and personal secrets might have been obstacles, but these two that have known one another for years were made for one another.

The progression of their relationship, the chemistry, and the sweet ending is just perfect. I loved visiting this adorable and quaint town again and look forward to the next book.

5/5 stars

Anita has had a crush on Tanner forever, but doesn't ever think she will get a chance with him.
Determined to prove herself to her family, she makes secret plans to open her own cafe, next to the diner where she works with Tanner. He won't be happy when he finds out, but they are both keeping secrets from each other, so what will happen next?

I like how it is told from both of their points of view, and what a great character Erma is!

A sweet and cute romance book, albeit almost a little too sweet (and I like clean romance). The two main characters have both cared about each other for over a decade, and worked together, too. When one of them decides to move forward with a career dream, it leads to hurt feelings, as they are both in the same industry in a small town. Of course, it all works out in the end...

This is a good book. The two main characters are Anita and Tanner. Anita has had a crush on Tanner since high school. Tanner wants to and does but the diner that Anita and Tanner work at. But doesn’t tell anybody. Anita secretly buys the building next door to the diner to start a cafe. They both find out each other’s secret. They are both mad because each other did not share their secret. But together they work it out and fall in love.
