A job at a coffeeshop for fun? For Wukong, a great idea! The job came to him quickly - a cutesy, loft coffeeshop with people working, reading or just enjoying a nice cup of hope on the plushy leather seats that warm their butts after a looong day.. While his apprentice MK is out with his friends doin' whatevs on his skateboard, Wukong serves coffee like he needs to win a contest; he starts loving his new job. And even more when an interesting monkey comes regularly to drink something and work with that focused furrowed brow; admittedly, incredibly handsome. The monkey with black fur always orders the same type of coffee, and Wukong somehow never gets tired of making it - "Black, with cream, and one spoon of sugar, please."

In a rain-soaked city and a bookstore lost to time, she finds a journal that writes back. What starts as innocent curiosity-wishes granted in ink and coincidence-quickly spirals into something far more powerful. The journal doesn't just respond; it knows things. About her. About the past. About what's coming. Each page turned draws her deeper into a shifting reality where her thoughts take shape, secrets surface, and the line between author and puppet begins to blur. Some stories write themselves. This one writes back

On a cold Edinburgh morning, she expected nothing more than a coffee, a quiet table, and the courage to start writing again. What she didn't expect was him. He's Dr. Alexander Fraser-brilliant, calm, devastatingly handsome in that quiet-university-professor way. She's a plus-size writer with a warm heart, a messy life, and a talent for turning simple mornings into public disasters. A spilled latte. A humiliating fall. A pair of strong hands that lift her back up. And a moment she absolutely wasn't prepared for. Neither of them knows what this is yet- a coincidence, a spark, or just a very embarrassing Tuesday. But at Nicholson Square, even small moments have a way of changing everything. A cosy, funny, slow-burn British romance about unexpected connections, shy glances, winter mornings, and a woman who's far more extraordinary than she realises.
