Legends and Lattes is exactly as described, high fantasy and low stakes. It is the relaxing and charming character driven novel I didn’t know I needed. 

Viv is an orc who has decided to lay down her sword and open a coffee shop in a town who has never heard of this delicious beverage. Viv soon employs Tandri, a succubus, to help her in the shop. This book is full of wonderful characters and just a few of less honorable intentions to keep it interesting. 

Fantasy isn’t in my wheelhouse so I was surprised to love this book as much as I did. I recommend it to anybody who wants to relax with a good story that reminds us of what can be good all while lost in another world.
