Crafting signature cocktails is my passion.Mixing things up with my oh-so-hot, mega-successful ex?A surefire recipe for the world’s most epic hangover.
I only agreed to compete in this mixology contest for one reason.To raise money so I can open my own speakeasy.And I have to admit, it’s a blast…until I see him.
Aiden Calihan. Heartbreaker extraordinaire. Grumpzilla.And now the billionaire owner of a luxury liquor brand.I’d love nothing more than to douse him with a Dirty Shirley.
Then, he goes and insults my already injured pride.The sculpted scumbag doesn’t even recognize me!And he expects me to flog his overpriced booze during the contest?
Oh, hell no!I’d rather drink bottom shelf bourbon from a broken glass.
But then he offers me a job I’d have to be punch-drunk to refuse.Create the perfect nonalcoholic drink.A gig that will fast-track my speakeasy dream.
With any luck, I won’t have to see much of the Grouch King.That is, until he starts invading my dreams.And like an alcoholic craving one more sip, I might be spiraling toward a romantic relapse…

At a mixology event, her world is shaken when Aiden Callihan, the man who broke her heart in high school, unexpectedly shows up. To make matters worse, Aiden doesn’t even recognize her.
Now a successful liquor entrepreneur, Aiden is looking to launch a line of handcrafted mocktails and believes Cora is the perfect collaborator. Despite her initial rejection and visible disdain, a formal job offer from Aiden’s company forces Cora to reconsider for the sake of her dream to open her own bar and elevate her social media brand.
Their collaboration begins with sharp banter and unresolved tension, but as they work together, buried feelings resurface. Cora and Aiden are drawn back into the familiarity of their past, grappling with lingering heartbreak and the possibility of a second chance.
With lively dialogue, emotional depth, and a cast of delightful characters, this heartwarming story explores themes of forgiveness, ambition, and love, leaving readers eager for the next chapter in the series.
