The Cafe at the End of the World: The meet-cute between cosy romance and apocalypse you didn't know you needed

THE END IS BREWING ...

Love, lattes, and world-ending drama – life just got a lot less cosy for Lydie, teenage daughter of Death. The cosy romcom/fantasy obsession you didn’t know you needed.

Come for the cinnamon rolls, stay for the apocalypse.

Lydie, the daughter of Death, a retired Rider of the Apocalypse, is obsessed with ‘cosy’; cosy books, cosy job in the family café, cosy low-drama life.

But then secretive, attractive, and above all annoying, Kai, bursts into the café in a flurry of autumn leaves, with secrets that threaten to change everything.

Big, un-cosy things are coming for Lydie whether she likes it or not, and working with Kai might be the only way to protect her town. Provided she doesn't fall for him first ...
