The Way Back Home by C. Lymari
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Home field advantage! There is no place like home! Remember this. This is book 1.5 in the HOCO series and a story many of us were waiting for! We wanted to know Emma's and Dex's story and learn more about the coffee shop and those quotes so thank you Claudia for writing this novella. If you love small towns, like Sunny Pines you will love it even more with a Coffee shop. Dex and Emma were full of tension from the moment they met, chemistry was hot, they were sweet and the laughter these characters and the secondary characters gave you made for one good cup of coffee. Dex never thought he'd want to come back to this small town, he was meant for bigger and brighter cities. Emma may be a small piece to change his mind, but it takes leaving to see that the grass may not be as green on the other side as you thought. He has a lot of quotes to write in the coffee shop to get Emma to forgive him for leaving. HaHa You will see that you can make a difference in a small town and be happy when it is your time to shine.This book can be read as a standalone if you choose, we got this story after the release of book one so you can choose the way you wish to pick up this story, just make sure you have a coffee on hand as Emma makes it perfect based upon a person's mood and fits to a T. I love reading this series and this novella gave us the lighter side of things as you will see in the other books that deal with heavier things that want you to travel to Sunny Pines and shake some sense into those characters and their actions.
