For fans of Natalie-Nicole Bates, she is pleased to release her fun and flirty, best-selling Shop Series books in three volumes, each featuring three books. Each volume features new material and a fresh edit. Volume 1 As the Story Goes, It's Pistachio Rose Rose owns the Everything is Coming Up Roses donut shop, located across the street from the police station. An upscale café is opening right next door to the donut shop, threatening to take away Rose's business with their designer donuts. When a mystery man begins spending time at her donut shop, a friendship is born. But what is his connection to the new café? Sass and Snickerdoodles Reclusive author Jonathan Oakes accepts an author-in-residence offer at a bookshop in a sleepy little village. He thought it was a trade of one quiet lifestyle for another. Then he met Sass, the server at the café, who serves him his daily snickerdoodle latte. Sass embodies her name. She's fun, flirtatious, and sharp-tongued. She's also a sexy torch singer! Can opposites attract? The Raclette Rascal Swiss hockey player turned chef/restaurateur, Noah Keller, introduces his toasted Raclette sandwich creations via pop-up restaurants. With his good looks, charm, and an accent that makes most women swoon, Noah has never had to try hard to succeed. Food blogger Brijean Brook doesn't fall so easily. When she visits Noah's pop-up restaurant, she walks in on him about to ravish a beautiful, willing sycophant on a customer table. Her scathing review goes viral, as does an unfortunate stick figure drawing.
