The Sweet Chestnut Trouble

Two cafés, two rivals, and a secret that binds them together

When Anja takes over the Little Vienna café after her father’s death, she knows it’s not going to be easy: debts, dusty furniture, eccentric customers – and the trendy chain Blonde Beans opening a branch right next door. The manager there is called Finn Heidemann. He’s good-looking, arrogant, and determined to lure away her few remaining customers. They have many heated arguments. And all the while Anja vents her frustration to a stranger on WhatsApp. Lime1130 listens, he understands her, he always finds the right words. Honest messages turn into night-time conversations, and comfort becomes wary closeness. Anja has no idea that her digital ally is the very man she’s spending her days fighting with...
