💜 Why We Curate

At Romantique Books, we believe discovering your next favorite author should feel personal. We intentionally seek out indie authors, underrepresented voices, and stories we genuinely love—because great books deserve passionate champions.

Every signed title in our collection is selected with care, not simply because it's available, but because we believe it offers readers something special.

Slow Roasted is a spicy, fake dating romance between a barista and customer with a contemporary setting and realistic scenarios. It includes explicit content and profanity and is recommended for mature readers only.

What are you supposed to do when a semi-creepy, middle-aged, and overly-flirty customer doesn't know how to take no for an answer? You tell him you have a boyfriend. What happens when he calls your bluff? You hope that one of your regulars who is conveniently at the register plays along. Despite being grateful for Patrick's quick help, I never truly realized how attractive he was until he leaned over the counter and openly flirted with me. Hopefully, Patrick is as cool with it as he seems, and I don't end up fired before the day is done.

What do you do when the cute barista at your favorite coffee shop goes from completely flustered to putting on an act where she calls you babe and talks about seeing you this weekend? You play along. Unfortunately, my assistance with her creepy customer quickly turned into my nightmare when that same customer turned out to be my new boss. I wish there was a better way out of this, but we both have too much at stake to be caught in this lie.
