Decaf & Other Compromises: A Romantic Comedy

A small-town coffee shop. A man who orders chamomile. And the barista who makes "no refusing kindness before noon" a house rule. Gideon Hansen didn't move to Dalton to be noticed. He moved to disappear-quietly, respectfully, and preferably behind the safest drink on the menu. Chamomile. No caffeine. No risk. No complications. Then he walks into The Ministry of Coffee... and meets Alex. Alex is sunshine with an apron: warm, quick-witted, and entirely unbothered by Gideon's careful edges. He doesn't ask prying questions. He doesn't demand explanations. He just offers tea, a cookie, and the kind of kindness that doesn't come with an invoice. But Dalton isn't a town that lets people stay lonely for long-especially not when Maggie McGlynn and Martha have opinions, a plan, and a firm belief that hydration is a moral obligation. As Gideon learns how to breathe again and Alex learns what it means to love someone gently, they discover that healing isn't always dramatic. Sometimes it looks like decaf. Sometimes it looks like compromise. > Decaf & Other Compromises is a cozy M/M romantic comedy full of found family, small-town charm, sweet laughs, and low-heat emotional swoon.
