This was a delightful read. I devoured it in one day and didn’t want to put it down. Books 2 and 3 are now available and I read them in quick succession and loved them all.
There were so many moments that made me laugh and swoon from the heat. While this was a slow burn, once Kiki and Tatum got together, the heat got turned up and did not disappoint.
This romcom was exactly what I needed with the humor and heat. I’m team Tatum all the way.

This was a really fun and entertaining story that had me devouring the pages. I couldn't put it down, and can't wait to read the next installment for Sarah and Lex.

I loved the chemistry and spicy rapport between Kiki and Tatum, and I feel like the storyline is believable. I felt for both of them and what they struggle with.

My only negatives would be Kiki's tendency to be self-deprecating and quick to assume that Tatum's love was really shallow. I think I like my female protagonists to be a little more confident and I wish that she had stood up for herself and confronted Tatum after hearing something (and believing it) from his manager.

Other than that, I really did like this sexy steamy funny romance and will be back for more in the sequels!

This was such a fun swoony read I had a smile on my face the whole time .
Kiki gets let go from her job & her brother helps her get a job on tour with country singer Tatum Reed.
from their first interaction you're rooting for this couple. I loved them together from the funny banter to the romance. Tatar tot & Coffee girl belonged together.
I also liked the conflict in this one and the way Tatum got Kiki back had me swooning

My favourite thing was the friendships with the other characters. Kiki's friendship with Tj was friendship goals they were hilarious together I want Tj in my life! & then Sarah ( the makeup artist on the tour) becomes a perfect fit with them too. I also loved Tatum's friendship with Lex too. I don't usually read new authors but I'm so glad I read this it really is a book I will recommend to other people.
5 stars from me

I binged this and cannot wait to read the rest in the series! I adored Kiki and Tate's story. Kate is a huge country super star and newly single. Kiki has just been let go from her job and she moves in with her sister and her brother helps her find a job as Tate's stylists' assistant. Kiki did not expect Tate to be so handsome and flirty with a coffee girl like her. I loved all of the song references in this one and would love to listen to the playlist! I loved their playful banter and slow burn romance.

I live for the swoon worthy romances! And @sophiesinclairauthor delivered with Coffee Girl.

Kiki is laid off and down on her luck when her brother calls a connection and helps her land a job working for a country singers tour.Kiki and her bestie TJ crack me up! Tatum, our green eyed crooner is the sweetest. Now there is some 🍆 so be forewarned! But this book is not all about the eggplant 🍆. Not to mention we meet Sarah, and the band.

This was exactly the book I was looking for to escape for a bit. I just love it.
A huge thank you to @netgalley and @booksgosocialgroup for a copy of the book.

This was a funny and adorable romance story between Kiki Forbes and Tatum Reed. This book enjoyable, sexy and fun, that I read in one afternoon. The pacing was off in the middle but overall the book was worth one afternoon and little bit of relaxation.

Loved this romance story between Kiki and Tate.. Tate is a huge country star. Unfortunately, his newest single with Country Sweetheart Savannah causes him to have to cross paths with her often, even though they’ve been broken up for months. ⁣

Kiki has just been let go by the men’s fashion magazine she styles for and is unemployed. Her brother Cam finds her a job as Tate’s stylists assistant Kiki doesn’t expect Tate to be so handsome and flirty with a coffee girl like her, when he dates superstars like Savannah. ⁣

I loved their playful banter and slow burn romance. Can't wait for the next book.

This was a great romance story, well written and full of great banter and character development.
I enjoyed the angsty moments and the happily ever after.

Kiki has been laid off of her job from popular men's fashion magazine and is given the choice between being her horrible sister's nanny or hitting the road with famous country star Tatum Reed as a glorified errand girl. She decides to go with the errand girl job in hopes that it might lead her to something new and exciting.

Tatum is a country superstar who is struggling with his personal life when his ex girlfriend goes on the attack while he is on the road for his tour. When he meets the new girl on his tour who seems to have no idea who he is, he is smitten. As they spend more time together, they end up falling for each other. But life in the public eye is never easy.

I found this book to be funny, sexy and sweet. I am a sucker for rock star romances and this book was a perfect beach read for the summer. Kiki and Tatum are relatable and have great chemistry and I loved all of the minor characters. Overall, I thought this was a lighthearted easy read and I cannot wait to read more by Sophie Sinclair.

I was given this book for free in exchange for a fair review from Netgalley. All opinions are my own. #NetGalley #CoffeeGirl

Thank you to @netgalley for a copy of this book to read and review! I had seen it around #bookstagram, wanted to read it and stumbled upon it in #netgalley. Kiki finds herself suddenly unemployed with no job prospects other than being her sisters nanny. For Kiki, that is a big NO! Her brother is able to help her get a job being the assistant-to-the-stylist for country music star Tatum. Tatum’s ex is out to make his life miserable and his new opening act is a handful. The sparks fly between Kiki and Tatum.
I really enjoyed this book and parts of it had me laughing out loud, including Kiki’s cat Oreo! I love a good romance! This one was that with a slow burn and some steam! Plus the epilogue was on point! I love when all your questions are answered! This would be a great vacation read! I have book two awaiting on me and can’t wait!

This was a fun and sweet romance. It was an opposites attract trope and there were forces getting in the way of Kiki and Tatum's happily ever after. I thought this was pretty funny as well. The book was fast paced and also had great secondary characters. I wish Kiki had acted more maturely at times, and some of the drama felt like a bit too much. Overall though, I really enjoyed this book.

I was totally blow away by how delightful Coffee Girl was! This was the fun and steamy contemporary romance I needed to read this week. I’m not even a big country music fan, but I’m a total sucker for romances set in the country music scene. I even like them more than traditional “rockstar” romances.

I absolutely loved the tone this story has, Kiki’s inner monologue is hilarious. Kiki and Tatum had great chemistry and banter together. I just really enjoyed my time reading Coffee Girl and I’m very excited to read the next two books in the series! 4.5 stars (upgraded to 5 for netgalley)

Coffee Girl is so funny it had me laughing out loud on more than one occasion. Sophie Sinclair is another unknown author to me, but reading this book reminded me very much of the I heart series by Lindsey Kelk. Both authors have similar styles of writing.

The first half is very much a rom com/chick lit type of story, whereas the rest of the book is filled with drama and steamy sex. Yes ticks all the boxes right?

Kiki is a 26 year old stylist working on a men's magazine alongside her stereotypical camp,  gay best friend, TJ. When she loses her job, her sister offers to employ her as her nanny with stringent clauses, but luckily her brother puĺls some strings and manages to get her on the team for a touring country singer.

Kiki goes on tour with the band and has to deal with trying to style a trashy singer, missent texts and misunderstandings. She and country boy Tatum, struggle to keep their relationship on a professional level and encounter lots of drama along the way.

This may all sound very 'Nashville' but it could be any music genre really. I'm sure every girl out there has had a pop star crush more than once in her life, so whilst it's fiction, you're all going to be able to identify with this.

This book is hot, flirty, sexy, and funny with some great characters. Chick lit at its finest.

It's not a negative but I must address the cover of this book. I wouldn't normally pick up a book with this sort of cover. I don't know about other readers, but I am so swayed by a cover. The saying goes don't judge a book by its cover but we all do, don't we? If it's bright and colourful with a cartoon type image, you can pretty much guarantee it's going to be chick lit/rom com.  If a book has a cover of a hot muscley man, I kind of expect some trashy, cheesy and cliched romance story. Now as nice as these men are to look at, my expectations for the storyline wouldn't be very high. This book is so much better than that. Maybe it's a UK thing but I did feel I should raise the point here on NetGalley because it's a seriously good book, and like I say not a complaint at all. :-)

Coffee Girl by Sophie Sinclair is the 1st book to the Coffee Book romantic series, and my first book by this author. I love this book with it's slow burning love story that is both sweet and sexy. Tatum Reed is a country music super star. Mackenzie “Kiki” recently lost her job, and her brother set her up to be style assistant to Tatum. It's either that or be a slave to her sister's family. Kiki has no idea who Tatum is, she doesn't listen to country music. If your looking for a perfect hot escape, give this book a try. I will definitely be reading more books by this author. Strongly recommended.
I received a complimentary copy of this book. Opinions expressed in this review are completely my own.

This was a cute, funny, steamy, and full of non-stop banter type of read!

This awesome story revolves around Kiki Forbes, a single, recently jobless, often hungover, down on her luck girl, and Tatum Reed, the country’s hottest music star, going through a very public break up with his superstar girlfriend.

When Kiki is offered a job - she has two options - become a nanny to her sister’s family and pretty much taking over all mom duties, including following a strict guide book (no thanks!), or going on tour with Tatum Reed’s team, as the assistant to his stylist.

It’s a light and quirky read with all of the ups, downs and miscommunications of relationships! The banter and steamy scenes were perfect and I read it in less than a day!

This book has been suggested for me to read so many times so when I saw I had received an arc, I was thrilled! Kiki and Tatum...OMG!!! Loved this couple. I had so much fun watching their relationship progress and it's a funny and sweet read. TJ and and Sarah are also fantastic additions to the book..

I loved the addition of the music into the story. I immediately went and listened to each song when they were mentioned.

Great read overall!

Kiki thought she had it all - a job she enjoys, a BFF who adores her, and a cat named Oreo whom she loves. Then she loses her job - what to do????
Tatum is the HOTTEST country singer around He is getting ready to go on tour and his stylist needs an assistant.
How these two lives converge and the romance that ensues is spectactular.
The story is really well written and completely entertaining. I am excited to read the next book to see what happens to Sarah.

I LOVED the premise of this book. It sounded cute and fluffy, without too much angst. Unfortunately, I DNFed it at the 85% mark.

Big picture, my problem comes down to this: I expect more from romance novels. For them to be smarter and portray womxn and sex more positively.

For most of the book, I'd have described it as "poorly written but amusing." It wasn't something I would recommend but it was light and fluffy, so why not keep reading? When The Big Conflict occurred, it pushed the book into "can't finish" territory. To be clear, the conflict made sense (more below) but it was the culmination of all the things that annoyed me and...I just couldn't devote more time to continuing.

I liked the setting and getting a behind the scenes look at touring. I love books that take place in different places and experiences that give me a glimpse into how others live. That was fun and felt very real.

That's where the likes end.

I found the characters to be over the top, to the point of feeling like caricatures. This bothered me most with TJ because it read as homophobic. Similarly, I couldn't stand the slut AND prude shaming (Maddie and Jess, respectively) or the pitting women against women. I especially disliked the false report narrative. Womxn in general and survivors, specifically, deal with enough bias and gaslighting in our daily lives. I don't enjoy it in my books.

Beyond that, I found the romance between Tatum and Kiki to be rushed and shallow. I'm open to the fact that maybe I just don't like "love at first sight" stories? Their relationship not feeling deep to me made the Big Conflict believable but groan worthy. For one, it was an immature response from immature characters who were prone to jumping to the worst possible scenario. Secondly, of course they would be easily tricked when they barely knew each other and their relationship lacked a solid foundation! I also really disliked how often he directly went against her express desires/wishes (e.g. telling Lee behind her back), which ties into the disappointing fact that the power dynamic between Tatum and Kiki was barely mentioned even though he's technically her boss.

I also found the sex to be a lacking and very heteronormative. I was very glad to see condoms (it's a non-negotiable for me in moderns). And I'm here for the first time or two being RUSHED and WET and WHAM BAM THANK YOU MA'AM! But every single time being that explosive?! It took me out of the story. Kiki deserved more foreplay!!! I also really dislike the whole "you're so tight" narrative, especially when paired with "you're so big" and little to no foreplay. It just...doesn't work like that and still be pleasurable.


I wanted to and really wish I had liked this one but alas....

Coffee Girl by Sophie Sinclair
Book #1: Coffee Series

Rating: 4/5 stars

**MINI-REVIEW**

The Bottom Line: I’m going to freely admit that I put off reading this book because of a dumb assumption. I erroneously assumed this was going to be a typical hit it and quit it kind of book with naughty bits galore, but what I actually got was a great story with fund characters, and appropriately placed and spaced naughty bits. See kids, that why we shouldn’t assume 😊 I liked Kiki tremendously and while Tatum’s arrogance could sometimes be a bit much, he was also a generally decent character. There are enough “bad guys” and dramatic moments to balance out the funny and the sappy moments and overall plot is both interesting and entertaining. I particularly enjoyed the scenes of texting and the moments when Tatum and Kiki discussed music. In all, I am happy to say that I have learned my lesson and I will try to stop assuming. Coffee Girl put me in my place, and I am very much looking forward to the second installment of the series.
