Cassie has come to Vail to try to figure out what she wants to do with her life. While there, she's working at a coffee shop. It's there where she meets Hunter, a seemingly immature, lazy guy she automatically assumes is a nobody. Imagine her surprise when she finds out he's a self made multimillionaire!
I liked Hunter, a lot. He's sweet and kind and has a great relationship with Cal, the guy who took him in when his parents practically disowned him, and who is Hunter's business partner. Hunter is really attracted to Cassie, the "barista girl" but she is so serious and judgemental that it takes her drinking a bunch of his expensive wine for her to loosen up and give into their attraction. But, after that she is so wishy washy and still so damned judgemental that I couldn't connect with her or find anything positive about her. Even at the end when they had made up, I couldn't bring myself to like her, and it made me rate Mocha Me Crazy really harshly.
If Cassie had been more open, not such a judgemental bitch, and more equal to Hunter, and had the pace been picked up, A LOT, I probably would have rated this higher than 2.5 stars, but as it's written, I just couldn't like anything about it other than Hunter.

Cassie was repeating customer orders at the coffee shop over and over under her breath to make sure she got it right. Her co-worker, Alice, kept laughing at her. Cassie took care of an online order and, as she turned, Alice knocked her arm hard enough to spill some of the coffee. Alice ran to the back room, trying to avoid Hunter who had just walked in. She left Cassie with a line of customers. Cassie waited on Hunter who smirked as he gave her a fake name in what Cassie saw as a childish, immature prank to embarrass her when she loudly called it out without noticing what she really said. Cassie was glad when he and his friend left. Cassie was here to figure out her life goals and didn’t need a jerk like that messing with her.
Alice tried to talk to her about how gorgeous Hunter was and what she fantasized it would be like to be with Hunter. Cassie tried to ignore her and do her job. But Alice wouldn’t stop. Couldn’t anyone be serious? Cassie was exhausted when she got home. Before she could get into the shower, her mother called and lectured her about being wound-up so tight and not enjoying life. That was not why they sent her to Vail! Same old lecture over and over.
At work the next day, Hunter and Cal came in again. Cal had to leave and tied his dog in an alley. Hunter promised to take care of the old dog. But when he went out to get him, someone had hit him with their car and injured him. Cassie, noting how caring and concerned he was over the injured dog, agreed to help him get the dog to the vet. As they waited for the vet to finish up, Hunter told Cassie she was too serious and actually made her see for herself that she was! He was gentle and teasing, but it made her realize some things about herself. She accused him of being a playboy rich kid and made other false assumptions about him. She would never have thought he was a self-made tech billionaire and a genuinely nice person that cared about others.
This was a good story, somewhat amusing along the way. Cassie was so very serious that she never saw the fun side of life. Hunter, who merely wanted to make her laugh with his silliness, was far more “adjusted” and knew what he wanted out of life. Could these polar opposites somehow come together to find happiness? Or does Cassie have too much growing up that needs to happen before she learns to loosen up and live? I was given a copy of this book and voluntarily chose to review it. My comments reflect my honest opinion.

Could Cassie and Hunter be the perfect blend?
Cassie has moved away from her wealthy, opinionated, well-meaning parents in order to find herself and hopefully figure out what she wants from her future. She’s taken job as a barista at a coffee shop in the popular tourist town of Vail. Even though to her family, the job is beneath her, she makes sure to do her job perfectly, professionally and she takes it very seriously.
Well, to be honest Cassie takes everything seriously. A bit too seriously in fact. She was hoping to avoid immature men while she was in Vail, but much to her dismay a flirty, gorgeous man-child sets her in his sights and won’t leave her alone.
He’s silly, flirty, funny and sweet. He’s also much more than he appears on the outside. Although Hunter enjoys life, he’s also super successful. His best friend/roommate/business partner however is just very immature and he irks Cassie to no end. She has no room in her life for silliness. Or fun. Or love…
As she gets to know Hunter a bit better, she lets her guard down enough to have a bit of fun and sexy times in her regimented life, but she soon comes to the conclusion that their personalities just won’t work long-term.
Can Hunter make Cassie realize that he’s exactly what she needs in her life to have that perfect blend of success, fun and love?
Hunter and Cassie had good chemistry and I personally thought Hunter and Cal were hilarious. Fun, sweet and well-written romance!

Cassie took life too seriously and her parents wanted her to loosen up a bit. So she heads to Vail to 'find herself' and gets a job in a coffee shop. That's where she meets Hunter, a self made tech billionaire. They are polar opposites but the chemistry and attraction is there. Hunter was a nice guy but I found Cassie to be immature, wishy washing and judgemental. The dog was hit by a car and they went to the vet together. Then they started seeing each other and became intimate. Cassie doesn't know what she wants so she picks a fight and decides to move back home. No spoiler, but it's a well written book with lots of surprises. I read an arc copy and voluntarily chose to review this book.

I liked this well written book. A nice storyline and plot. The characters are well described and develops nicely. Cassie annoyed me a lot sometimes. She can act too immature for me. I hate judgemental people. But she had to change her opinion. Hunter is as sweet and friendly as they come. Both has issues they have to deal with but their chemistry is over the top. I would have loved that the story was written in more dual POV. Hunter has a few chapters but I would have loved more. It always answers a lot of questions, when the reader can have both the feelings and thoughts of the main characters.
A fast read that should have had a bit more depth to it. I like the humor, passion and twists.

Hunter brought himself up from nothing and is often mistaken for someone he's not. Cassie has always been made fun of for being straight laced and OCD. Together their chemistry is off the charts, but can two opposites attract? Will Hunter convince Cassie to take a chance?
Loved these two. This is a true story of opposites attracting! There were times where I wanted to shake Cassie, but understood that she probably couldn't help her reactions. I understood both of their reactions when it came to how Hunter reacted to the pranks, but was really proud of both of them taking the chances! Good read!

I voluntarily read and reviewed an ARC of this book...
I really wanted to like this story and I would have if is wasn't for Cassie. She is way too serious and judgmental that I couldn't really like her. Hunter was really likable and I fell in love with him! Cal and Cassie's co-worker were great secondary characters! Who couldn't fall in love with NotCat, the dog! He and Cal really stoled the story! The plot was good. The story-line tended to be choppy in relation to Cassie. I hated her parents - no wonder she acted the way she did! Glad she finally came to her senses and took the leap!

This was my first book by this author, and I can say honestly I wasn't too impressed with it. It was a quick read, but it felt like something was missing. By reading the synopsis, I thought this would have been an enemies to lover romance, but the Cassie and Hunter never really hate each other. IDK, it was just weird.
However, it was a sugary sweet love story that gave me the warm tingles. And as always, I will give this author another go as I see a lot of potential in her books.

3.5 Stars. I understand Cassie has issues but she is really judgmental and actually quite critical of everyone. She recognizes she has her issues but doesn’t really want to get past them. Hunter is everything Cassie isn’t. Inexplicably they click. Story has some laughs to go along with Cassie’s self discovery but I just found it ok. I freely reviewed this ARC.
October 27, 2017
This is a short and sweet romance with tons of heat. The story is for slightly younger audience with less complications and more younger age romance. The male character is a little less explored and female character can be a little childish, but the story was very enjoyable. Voluntary and honest review after receiving ARC (advanced reader copy).

Kristen flowers did a great job with this book. I loved Cassie and Cal's story and thought they were the perfect characters for this storyline. This is a well written book that I enjoyed and a fairly quick read. I laughed throughout a lot of the book which was refreshing. I look forward to see what she has to come.

This story was awfully cute and had a cast of characters that were just that-characters. I loved how first impressions changed. A good book. however, there were a few, very few grammatical mistakes, not enough to make me stop reading, just momentary annoyances.

Working in a coffee shop isn't what her parents wanted for her but its what she needs right now. The a hot guy has to go make her day even worse by telling her his name is Huge Jorgan and when she calls out for him the crowded place fills with laughter at her expense.

He owns his own company with his friend and is very dedicated to keeping their company thriving. When one of Hunter's neighbors run over his partner dog Notcat its Cassie and her friend from work that tell them who did it. The story unfolds around that story and Hunter's and Cassie's romance starts to bloom while they plot how to prove what really happened. The chemistry between them is hot. However Cassie hasn't really talked about her life with Hunter so what happens when she figures out what she wants to do? Will her and Hunter find a way to stay together?
This was a great story I was laughing through the while first part. This is definitely a book I would recommend to anyone that loves to read. This was the first I've read by this author and can't wait to see what's next.

First book I read from the author and it was great. I love the title too. I can totally relate to Cassie, which made the book that more enjoyable. Hunter is dreamy as well. Definitely a must read if you love heroines and romances. Can't wait to read more from this author.

December 18, 2017This was just very short although I do hope it was longer. Hunter and Cassie are cute together, and so were Cal and Alice. I even like NotCat and I feel bad for the old guy.
I was annoyed at Cassie at some parts for having such unreal standards and expectations but I quite like this bunch.
