Not in the Plan: A totally addictive and consuming lesbian romance (Single in Seattle)

By Dana Hawkins

Free-spirited coffee shop owner meets uptight coffee addict. Is an opposites-attract match brewing... or burning? Charlie never planned on falling for anyone again. After a messy divorce, she's focused on making her Seattle coffee shop a success. But when Mack, a mysterious writer, starts using the cafe as her office, Charlie finds herself drawn to the gorgeous stranger. Mack is in Seattle to finish her novel, no distractions allowed. Yet she can't resist Charlie's warmth and charm, or help the way some of Charlie's childhood stories start slipping into her manuscript. When a storm traps Mack and Charlie in the coffee shop, they share a mind-bending, knee-shaking kiss. But Charlie is an eternal optimist who sleeps with fairy-lights on, while Mack is an ironing-at-5am worrier who is keeping a terrible secret from the woman she's falling for... When the truth comes out, both women must decide if their budding romance is worth fighting for. Can Charlie learn to trust her heart again? And will Mack choose love over her career? A swoony, steamy queer romcom set against the cozy backdrop of a quirky coffee shop, this opposites-attract romance brims with humor, heat, and the magic of unexpected love. Perfect for fans of Ashley Herring Blake, Casey McQuiston, and Alexis Hall.

I was looking forward to this book and all of my anticipation was worth while! I really enjoyed this story and the characters. Mack and Charlie struggled with their own identities while moving from strangers to friends to lovers.
Mack overcame her inability to find a romantic connection and put herself in the mindset to fall in love. While Charlie battled her past demons regarding abandonment and her lovability as a person.
The side characters were also really well fleshed out, even for having minor rolls. Mack's parents brought a balance to her character, while Ben did the same for Charlie.
The editor, Viv, also gave another view of Mack that was also a plot point in the story.
I really enjoyed this book and honestly it has inspired me to read other works by this author.
