Deaf Hearts #0.5
The Deaf Chef
Whoever convinced me to eat at the food truck on campus needs to be covered in honey and left out for the ants because the guy that runs it?
He’s a total asshole.
Granted, I might have pissed him off by overstepping my bounds, but I was trying to do him a favor. After all, he’s Deaf and I’m an interpreter here at the college so why wouldn’t I help out when he needs it?
Which, okay, maybe he didn’t ask for help, but I was distracted by his gorgeous smile and his biceps. Sue me.
It doesn’t take long for me to learn his name: Mellie.
Or what he likes to do for fun: work out at the gym.
But it does take a little patience and an incident with a vicious wasp for both of us to figure out that while we might come from different worlds, we have a lot of shared interests. Namely making out in the back of his truck.
And it also doesn’t take long for either of us to realize we definitely want more.

GIVE ME MORE OTTO I FEAR I LOVE HIM AHHHHH🐝🍯

A quick 65 page read about Rhett and Mellie, who we meet in the first full length book of this series as an already established couple.
Rhett is hearing but has a deaf cousin who came to live with his family when he was 4, so he grew up learning ASL, and went to college and changed his major to Deaf studies, and so became an interpreter.
Mellie was born deaf - and I think it's implies his parents are deaf too? Maybe? - and his brother was born deaf and later became blind as well, so Mellie has a bit of a chip on his shoulder when it comes to hearting people, even Rhett who has been in the community for a long time.
They meet at Mellie's food truck on the community college campus where Rhett works and when Rhett offers to interpret for these hearing college kids who are being pretty lazy about following instructions, Mellie takes offense to that, feeling he can handle it all on his own.
After that faux pas, Rhett backs off and while Mellie tries to remain indignant and angry about it all, he's very attracted to Rhett and wants to sleep with him. Rhett wants Mellie too and kind of likes his annoyed attitude.
Of course, with this being so short, it couldn't be amazing, and things happen very quickly between these two, but I liked what we got and they were quite sweet together on their date. For what little we were getting, they had good chemistry and the spicy scenes were good. I do kind of wish we'd gotten a full on penetration scene, but oh well.
Technically this came out before book one and is meant to be read before it, but I had no trouble reading this after the fact of reading book one, so this is a quick little intro to Rhett and Mellie's relationship and how they got to be the solid, in love couple we see in book one.
Nothing very special about this, but nothing bad or boring about it either, so it earns a soldi 4 stars from me.
Can't wait for more in this series. Until then!

Mellie runs a food truck on the campus where Rhett works and takes an instant dislike to him, its made worse because he is attracted to him too and doesn't want to be. The feeling is mutual only Rhett hasn't really done anything to earn Mellie's ire.
You know how the story is gonna go, its a nice warm up act before the series starts and explains their back story as an existing couple in future books.

The Deaf Chef is E.M. Lindsey's prequel novella of the co-written Deaf Hearts series with Cora Rose. This short story was originally a part of the Delicious: An MM/MMM Charity Anthology: Volume Two, and is now available as a freebie through Prolific Works. The first full-length novel in the Deaf Hearts series, Kiss-Fist, will be available in September. Here's what you can expect from Rhett and Mellie:
💙 MM contemporary romance
💙 First person dual point of view
💙 Guaranteed happily ever after
💙 Open door spice
💙 Food truck owner and ASL interpreter
💙 Starting off on the wrong foot
💙 Deaf representation
💙 A vicious wasp attack
This was a great prequel novella to the new series from Cora Rose and E.M. Lindsey! It's only six chapters, but it paints a good picture of the contemporary universe we're stepping into and introduces us to the main characters of Kiss-Fist. As per usual, E.M. Lindsey's disability representation doesn't miss. This novella explores some of the nuances and challenges that Deaf people face when interacting with ASL interpreters.
After Rhett tries to do Mellie a favour at his food truck one afternoon, they get off on the wrong foot. I enjoyed the little enemies to lovers thing they had going on, however brief it was. I look forward to getting to know all the characters a little bit better, and I'm excited to read the first full-length book in the series. You most likely won't need to have read this one to enjoy the series, but it's a great jumping off point!

Adorable. I read this series out of order and while reading Kiss-Fist I had a feeling I'd missed either a book or novella before it. Millie is hilarious. I had liked him in the full novel and this story of how him and Rhett connected was rather adorable. It wasn't groundbreaking but a very enjoyable 65 or so pages

Fantastic little opener to this world and characters!
Rhett & Mellie are the cutest.
All it took was a sting to make the whole picture come into focus for Mellie and when it did, phew those sparks soar in the best way possible.
Rhett is hearing but an interpreter within the deaf community, he never expected to run into the hot food truck owner.
The grumpy/grumpy-ish caught me by surprise but it was well worth seeing them be grumps together and separately. Rhett struggles cause he thinks Mellie doesn’t like him, Mellie is on the fence because Rhett is hearing but in the end, you do what’s necessary to get your person. Even after something unexpected brings Rhett to the rescue and be Mellies hero.
EM Lindsay does a great job of sucking you into the book until the very end.
I can’t wait to see what else is in store for Robbie, Rev and even Thom.

Very solid novella - I could have used a tiny bit more introspection from Mellie after his total 180 attitude change towards Rhett, but other than that it's great.

I loved this little novella!
Spoiler alert that I read Kiss Fist first before seeing this was an option. I would have loved a full length story of these guys! So sweet and spicy. There have been so many characters introduced in both of these that I hope the series is here to stay as long as they are doing right by the deaf community. Which brings me to my only concern.
My concern (with Kiss Fist and this one) is I’m a little surprised that neither author has mentioned where their deaf community info came from- whether they are a part of the community or using sensitivity readers… (not that they need to share personal info but in using something of this nature in novels….) it’s just a very very nuanced community and I wish they had disclosed how they made certain that it was as accurate and respectful as humanly possible. I kept waiting for an acknowledge or authors note. The anti- AI stance in this one was nice though.

Such a very lovely story!
Rhett is an interpreter for Robbie, Deaf professor, at the University. Rhett is a good guy but he hasn't find real passion yet, especially in love relationships. One day, Robbie sends him to get lunch from a food truck run by a friend. So Rhett meets Mellie, gorgeous Deaf chef, but he leaves a negative impression when he tries to help the chef with some rude students by overstepping.
Their second meeting is definitely better and I really really loved how grumpy Mellie melted around Rhett! He went far away from his comfort zone and asked him on a date. They were adorable together and, despite Mellie's reticence on taking a chance on a hearing guy, they were perfect for each other.
I really wish the author will expand this novella in the future. And I also hope we'll see Robbie and Thom's stories too.

I read this story a while ago and I'm so glad that it turned into a series! I really love the setup and the characters.
Here is my original review, I've given the story 4.5 ⭐:
I really loved this story, it always amazes me how much story and personality/ background there is in a short story. Rhett is an interpreter (mostly) for Robbie (Deaf Professor), Rhett mostly understands when to help/step in as an interpreter in a situation but sometimes he's wrong. Mellie (deaf chef) just didn't like him because he didn't ask for help. The Author did a great job explaining both sides of the story and showing that people make mistakes and can talk about them. This is an author that I want to read more from in the future.

Short and sweet prequel
I read Kiss-Fist, the first book in the series, before reading this prequel but it didn't make any difference to my enjoyment of either story.
Rhett is the interpreter for Robbie, a Deaf college professor and one of the MCs in Kiss-Fist. Mellie is a Deaf chef who has his own food truck.
Rhett and Mellie didn't have the best of starts but that didn't matter because the attraction between them was red hot. Their romance happened very quickly because this was a short prequel but I enjoyed it anyway.
I always enjoy E.M.'s disability rep and how sensitively they portray their characters, and Mellie and his brother Otto were great examples of their skill. In fact, Otto was fabulous and I seriously need his story.

I spent more time than I would have liked being annoyed at how rude Mellie was. That attitude though? Yes, as a hearing person I don’t know anything about what life is like for a Deaf person. But like, most people don’t. Including most people who will read this book. So it might have been a good idea to spend a little time making sure the Deaf MC wouldn’t appear as a rude asshole for seemingly no reason. Because we don’t KNOW why these things are offensive.
I, at least, think a better explanation was in order. That would have made me like the guy more and be on his side rather than sitting there wondering why he decided to hate someone who just wanted to help.

This short novella follows Rhett and Mellie and opens this series up very nicely! So nicely, I wish I realized it was there and read it before book 1! It gives us a nice introduction to the characters and the world. Rhett is an interpreter at a college and can’t help but be interested in the chef at the new food truck. But getting off on the wrong foot isn’t what Rhett had in mind. Lucky for him Mellie is equally interested. Though it takes a minute for it to be willing to admit it. Having met them when I read book 1, it was nice to get more of their story on how they meet and ended up a couple. A very short and sweet novella that you don’t want to miss if you are interested in this series!

I hadn’t realised this was a prequel to a book I have on my TBR (Deaf Hearts series) - I’m glad I read this first. And I’d just finished another E.M. Lindsey book so it was good to stay with their writing.
I really enjoyed this. Both Rhett and Mellie seemed quite dissatisfied with their current situations and were both negative in their own ways until a wasp changed it all and they allowed each other in! There’s a bit of tension and humour and also some spice towards the end as well as some interesting work mates and family members.
A bit of a weird way to end the story, but a good introduction to other characters in the series.

This was a great introduction to the series and the characters that will feature in kiss fist. It was also a great introduction to the deaf community and the representation throughout these books.
This was the story of Rhett, who works as an interpreter and Mellie, the deaf chef, who has a food truck. I enjoyed learning so much about the characters, despite being a novella and I liked the hate to love aspects of the story. Rhett was just so thoughtful and sweet and Mellie was so headstrong and when the gave in they were done for, very cute!
I cannot wait to read Kiss Fist and I highly recommend beginning with this novella!

A nice quick read that is a complete standalone in this series world.
Not gonna lie, a deaf chef and an ASL interpreter is a dynamic I have never read before. It’s short, fun, and a great ways to pass an hour or two.
It’s not instalove by any means, but it’s definitely fast burn. Burn it does too. The chemistry is off the charts and this isn’t even a smutty read.
This book also introduces a cast of characters that will likely have their own story in the series. Worth the time if you enjoy stories that feature hearing impaired characters.

This was a super cute and quick intro into the Deaf Hearts world!
This novella follows Rhett and Mellie - an ASL interpreter and a food truck owner, respectively. Rhett offers to interpret without being asked and Mellie takes offense - but then quickly realizes he was an ass and grovels in the best way to win Rhett over.
I wish this had been a little longer because I feel like some of the moments were abruptly cut short in very odd spots and they could have been expanded on. But overall these two were cute and I liked getting to see Thom and Robbie before they were a couple!

I first read this short story in the Delicious charity anthology and knew I needed more.
I enjoyed all these characters so much! Seeing this world expanded into a series, with Kiss-Fist (book 1), made me so excited.
It’s nice to see this prequel available by itself so it can be enjoyed with the rest of this series. Because Mellie and Rhett need to be experienced.
Looking forward to seeing more of these characters get their HEAs in this series.

This is a really cute and spicy novella that got me even more excited for my ARC of Kiss-Fist. I love seeing the characters I know will have their own book, but I also enjoyed this one on its own. Particularly adorable was Mellie’s determination to hate Rhett and how he struggled to hold on to said hate. As the song says, it’s a thin line lol. I received a copy of this book directly from the author’s email newsletter to read before Kiss-Fist and this is my honest review. 4.5 stars.
September 19, 2025
This was an enjoyable story and a good introduction to the Deaf Hearts series. I only wish it had been a bit longer and fleshed out a few more details. Mellie was a grump who got offended by Rhett's behavior far too easily, but their mutual attraction overcame their rocky start. I noticed that side character Salem was the same person called Leaf in Kiss-Fist, and wonder if that difference will be explained in future stories. Well worth the read!
March 27, 2026
The author made this a novella by skipping over the relationship part of the story. The characters meet, struggle a little with deciding they like each other (mostly through interactions with other characters), and have an orgasm. Then it jumps straight to an epilogue of one year later, that is just a couple pages to say they have gotten serious. I am sure it worked great as a teaser for the series, but it doesn’t work as an actual story.
September 12, 2025
Rhett & Mellie: I met these two in Robbie’s book, Kiss-Fist, and thought they were great. It was nice to read their story. Mellie has an instant dislike towards Rhett and Rhett still finds him hot. Rhett knows he doesn’t have a chance with him but wants him to like him. It doesn’t take Mellie long to change his mind about the Interpreter and sparks fly. Enjoyed this short.

Qué bonitoooo🥹. El único "pero" que le pondría es que me hubiera gustado ver un poquito más de Rhett y Mellie después de esa primera cita. No lo sé, esperaba verlos siendo felices un poco más antes del epílogo aunque de cualquier forma me pareció muy bonita la historia, rápida de leer, sin mucho drama, la recomiendo al 100% si no sabes qué leer y no tienes mucho tiempo.

3.5 stars, rounded up
It was... fine? It's a cute, light-hearted novella that has the same issues as most novella's out there. Too short to have the same depth and character development that a full-length novel provides. But it was sweet, so give it a shot, I'd say.

This was pretty cute but somehow too short? I would have loved more moments between Rhett and Mellie. it feels like the author took the time to explain the character’s background and families (which I love) but it took away moments of the romance….

Great introduction to this new series! Sweet, funny, and full of heart. Rhett & Mellie’s romance is all about banter, patience, sizzling chemistry, and a food truck backdrop you’ll adore. EM Lindsey nailed the Deaf rep and the spice
