From Coffee to Chaos

A heartwarming contemporary romance about second chances, unexpected family, and the courage to love again. Joe never planned on becoming the caretaker of three kids who aren’t his. He never planned on reconnecting with Audrey, the girl he once loved and lost. And he definitely never planned on bailing her out of jail. But when Audrey’s life spirals and her children have nowhere safe to go, Joe opens his home—and slowly, his heart. Suddenly he’s navigating parenting classes, school routines, family campouts, and late‑night talks with a woman who is trying to rebuild her life from the ground up. Audrey wants stability for her kids, but she’s terrified of hoping for more. Especially when she believes Joe might be falling for someone else. As the holidays approach, the house fills with laughter, decorations, and the warmth of a family forming itself in real time. Joe begins to realize that home isn’t a place—it’s the people you choose.
