Love, Coffee, and Revolution: A Novel

Deftly weaving romance, action, and humor with a quest for integrity in an unjust world, Love, Coffee, and Revolution is a timely and relatable coming-of-age novel.

Dee Blum has a plan. Or rather, her parents do.

Graduate college. Go to law school. Become a divorce attorney. Be “successful.”

But Dee wants more—more purpose, more passion, more than checking off someone else’s boxes. So when she lands a surprise gig leading eco-tours of coffee farms in Costa Rica, she bolts, leaving behind everything she’s ever known in search of a fresh start.

What she finds is both intoxicating and overwhelming: lush coffee farms, a little too much freedom, and two very different men. Adrián is charming, sexy, and politically all wrong. Matías is a visionary change-maker who sets her heart and mind on fire. She’s drawn to both, and utterly confused. Which one will fit the future that’s just starting to come into focus?

Just as Dee starts to feel semicapable—navigating a new culture, a new language, and a new job she’s wildly underqualified for—she uncovers a truth she can’t ignore. Some of the “ethical” coffee farms are hiding dark secrets—ones that threaten the environment and the very farmers they claim to support.

In over her head but not alone, Dee finds unexpected allies in Professor Ramírez, a legendary academic with a storied past, and Tomás, an entrepreneurial sixteen-year-old whose unshakable optimism might be exactly what she needs. With their help, Dee sets out to uncover just how deep the corruption goes—and what, if anything, they can do to stop it.

Now Dee must ask herself: How far will she go for justice? For love? And for the life she actually wants?
