American Dreamer
by Adriana Herrera
When Nesto Vasquez leaves his beloved NYC to pursue his dream of making his Afro-Caribbean food truck into a full time career, maybe even a restaurant, he is determined to stay focused. There's no time for other dreams, even if the adorable librarian Nesto serves at the truck inspires some of the distracting, late-night variety.
Jude Fuller is also fully dedicated to making his mobile library bus a reality for youth living in the outskirts of Cayuga who wouldn't otherwise have access to the wealth of materials a library can offer. The same information that saved him as a kid when he struggled to reconcile his attraction to men when everyone in his life told him that was a sin.
Now living a fulfilling and safe, but lonely life, Jude is flabbergasted when the outgoing and sexy chef pursues him.
Flirtation leads to dating, and as Jude and Nesto fall in love, they'll need to learn to balance their career dreams with their hopes for a future, together.
Oh my gosh, this book is adorable, swoony, and so sexy. A fabulous debut from an author to watch, you'll definitely want this one on your TBR immediately. Be sure to eat a good meal while reading, as the food descriptions are drool-worthy!
I loved how this romance is a small-town contemporary, but also recognizes the realities of living in a small community and being out, of being perceived as being "illegal," of being "different," and the good and the bad that goes along with that.
I'm really excited to read more in this series!
