The first standalone cozy fantasy romance in the bestselling series!

When Saphira opens her cafe welcoming pet baby dragons, she isn’t expecting it to be quite so hard to keep the fires burning. But her young dragon patrons keep incinerating her furniture, which means selling coffee isn’t covering all her costs.

Local heart-throb Aiden is a gardener, though his disobedient baby dragon is a major distraction from his beloved plants. However, Saphira’s café gives him an idea – he’ll ask Saphira to train his dragon, and pay her enough to keep the cafe afloat.

They know they’re the answer to each other’s problems, but happy-go-lucky Saphira and gorgeous-but-grumpy Aiden couldn’t be more different. Can they find a way to work together – and maybe even ignite some fire of their own?

The perfect dual POV, grumpy sunshine cozy fantasy, with HEA guaranteed!

Tropes:

  • Grumpy x Sunshine 🌞
  • We pretend we're married! 💍
  • Small town 🍂
  • Low spice ✨

**The Baby Dragon Cafe was a Times top 10 bestselling paperback and an Amazon top 10 bestselling ebook on Feb 1 2025, and a USA Today bestseller on Jul 9 2025***
