A friendship caught between old routines and new feelings

Nadine and Daniel’s long-standing friendship has its own rituals: music rehearsals, snowboarding, and catch-ups at the café where Daniel works. When a new student catches Daniel’s attention, Nadine begins to wonder whether her feelings for her best friend have changed—and whether saying so could put their friendship at risk. The pumpkin spice lattes and school setting frame a story about first crushes, friendship, and the uncertainty of speaking up. Its central tension comes from Nadine weighing a new possibility against a bond she has treasured for years.

Book overview

Get ready to fall in love! This middle grade rom-com features an adorable bag charm and gorgeous stained edges!

 

Nadine and Daniel have been best friends pretty much since birth. While she has her music rehearsals and he has his snowboarding, the two of them always make time to meet up at the Snug Mug, where Daniel works, for their catch-ups over Daniel's special pumpkin spice lattes.

But their daily routine is shaken up when a new girl, Kiya, starts at their school. Daniel falls head over heels for Kiya the second he sees her. Which would be fine . . . if Nadine hadn't recently realized she might be falling for Daniel herself. Nadine knows she has to find the courage to tell Daniel how she feels, but what if she's already lost her chance? And what if she loses Daniel as a friend...forever?

Full of warmth and humor, and featuring delicious stained edges as well as a beautiful bag charm, this romance about first crushes and friendship is the perfect sweet treat as the leaves begin to turn!
