One cup of coffee. One dangerous question. One life about to unravel.

Adam's future is already mapped out: finish his dissertation, marry his fiancée, and settle into the life everyone expects him to want.

Then he meets Elodie.

The sharp-tongued barista sees through his carefully ordered routine with unsettling ease, asking the one question he's spent years avoiding. What begins as stolen conversations over coffee soon ignites into a forbidden affair that pulls Adam into a hidden world of luxury, temptation, and dangerous desires.

Behind an unmarked door, pleasure is only the beginning. Every choice draws him deeper into an exclusive society where secrets are currency, loyalties are tested, and walking away may no longer be an option.

As the lines between duty and desire blur, Adam must decide whether to return to the life he planned—or embrace the one he never dared imagine.

Bitter Brew is a steamy contemporary erotic romance featuring forbidden attraction, infidelity, secret societies, morally complex characters, and an ongoing serialized storyline that ends with a cliffhanger, leaving listeners eager for Book Two.

For mature listeners only.

I tried but I can't. the voice in the narration is absolutely terrible. it is so monotone. and bad quality, it's very muffled. as I write this review, I am also hearing the story and it's extremely cheesy porn, right away. find something else to read because this isn't it.

Narration is awful

Given the POV is a man, the cold female narration was all wrong. Or, given this was merely a man getting it on with a stranger, the lifeless narration was the point? Either way, I have no desire to move on to chapter 2.
