"Cozy, fast read, romance with a hint of a mystery. Gilmore Girls-esque small town. Start of a series."

Tiffany Wysbeek

"I liked this cute fall romance I loved the romance between Jeanie and Logan!!!!"

Alyssa Brooke Knott

"Very cute. Nothing earth-shattering. A sweet little fall romance that was a quick, easy read. "

Alexia Hollis

"If you’re looking for an easy, low stakes, Hallmark story with a helping of spice…and I’m not just talking about pumpkin…look no further. Ultra predictable (but that’s the point, right?) and giving all the cozy Fall vibes, this book hits like a mug of caramel apple cider: warm and sweet. Logan has got some serious abandonment issues but dispite my least favorite trope: miscommunication, you know you are guaranteed your HEA. Looking forward to reading more from the “Dream Harbor” series."

"I really enjoyed The Pumpkin Spice Café by Laurie Gilmore! It was such an entertaining, fast-paced read, with plenty of humor and charm. The characters, especially Jeanie and Logan, were funny and relatable, and their banter kept me engaged. I loved the cozy small-town setting of Dream Harbor, which added warmth and a festive fall atmosphere to the story. The touch of mystery and the quirky townsfolk gave the plot extra charm, making it feel like a comforting autumn treat. I’ll definitely be checking out the other books in this series!"

Katherine Esther

"Cute. Cozy. Feel good. Made me go to my local coffee shop to get a drink while reading. Just a fun fast cozy read. It really is Gilmore girls feels. All the mush and warmth you could want in a fast read. I want to live in Dream Harbor. "

"Smooth read. It was to enjoyable that I felt like I was in the book. I was hooked right away. I can’t wait to read books 2, 3, and 4. (Chapter 26 on gets a little spicy)"
