Loves, Lives and Lattes

We’ve all been there. It’s an unmistakable waft of freshly ground coffee beans that sends the senses into a mindset close to transcendental meditation when the door opens to your favorite coffee shop. We all know the choice for which drink was made even prior to the door being opened. But what if we each stopped for a moment, looked around, and bumped into our one true love? What if that total stranger standing in front of you ordering his Caffe Americano was your Romeo and you, a delicate bit of sweetness requesting a Caramel Macchiato, were his passionate Juliet? Wouldn’t life be easier if one would take the time to stop the second the door was opened, settle into a deep breath and awaken not only to the sense of smell from the coffee being brewed but to the sense of love and the possibility that the total stranger could be your perfect complement? Matching personalities with coffee types in a series of short stories, Love, Lives & Lattes could be the answer to finding love for the latest generation.
