An Inconvenient Favourite: A Contemporary Romance Ebook by LOVVA
Rivals by day. Confidants after closing.
An Inconvenient Favourite by LOVVA is a standalone contemporary romance novella set around two competing cafés in Sydney. With alternating viewpoints, witty dialogue and an unexpected online connection, it explores what happens when the person getting under your skin is also the person who understands you best.
Good coffee. Complicated chemistry.
Mara Ellis has poured her savings, ambition and more than a few sleepless nights into Paper Moon. The last thing she needs is Theo Bennett opening a polished new café across the courtyard and attracting customers who used to sit at her tables.
After closing, Mara finds comfort in an anonymous online friendship. Her confidant understands difficult customers, exhausting shifts and the pressure of keeping a small business alive. He makes her laugh. He listens. Eventually, they agree to meet.
Theo arrives.
Neither knew. Neither handles it particularly well.
When a redevelopment proposal threatens their courtyard, working together becomes unavoidable. But Theo has another option: a job offer from the company behind the proposal. As their attraction deepens, Mara and Theo must decide what they can trust, what they are willing to risk and whether love can leave room for two independent lives.
