“Read with joy!”
― Cleo Coyle

“Real gold doesn't start its journey in a display window at Tiffany. It's dug out of the dirty earth. Sometimes true gold doesn't glitter. It may need a little polishing, but don't let that bit of needed patience or effort trick you into discarding what could be the greatest treasure of your life.”
― Cleo Coyle, Billionaire Blend

“There comes an age in life when you realize that blaming and regretting are a waste of precious time.”
― Cleo Coyle, Murder Most Frothy

Donna Thank you Cleo for accepting my friend request on Goodreads. I really want to get started reading your Coffee Shop Mysteries. I love coffee, so these should be just perfect for me. Have entered the giveaway for your book on Goodreads.
Blessings.


Witchy I took a leap-of-faith and made your Norwegian egg coffee. The coffee syrup never lead me wrong, but I was skeptical about this one. It's good, though! I'm drinking it, now. Next time, I won't doubt you. LOL.
