Deck the Dates (with cups of coffee)

With his best friends’ Christmas Eve wedding less than two weeks away, Yugi Mutou tries to uphold his promise to find a plus one, choosing to use a very unconventional method. Not even careful planning could prepare him for what is to come when he joins a holiday dating app. Atem Sennen has never thought much about holiday romance. Heck, he has not thought about romance at all recently. However, when a cute little customer enters both his coffee shop and his life, he is forced to reconsider his opinion on the topic. Naughty or nice, can they both find their merry and bright?

Rec'ers notes: I love both these authors and seeing them co-write this lively seasonal fluff that is chock full of humor and banter was a treat. Yugi's online dating mis-adventures are like a highlight reel of the worst (best) possible dates, and Atem is there laughing and supporting him through the whole thing as his secretly pining barista. While the dates are going on, their chemistry is off the charts and when they finally land on the same page it's with the satisfaction of two puzzle pieces snapping together.

This is how Bucky Barnes falls in love.

This is how Bucky Barnes gets his heart shattered amongst the stars and pulled apart like a flower in love torn hands, petals smashed under the soles of shoes on concrete.

He loves me. He loves me not.

He loves me.

He loves me not.
