Love, Coffee, and Revolution: A Novel
About this audiobook
Deftly weaving romance, action, and humor with a quest for integrity in an unjust world, Love, Coffee, and Revolution is a timely and relatable coming-of-age novel.
Dee Blum has a plan. Or rather, her parents do.
Graduate college. Go to law school. Become a divorce attorney. Be “successful.” But Dee wants more—more purpose, more passion, more than checking off someone else’s boxes. A surprise gig leading eco-tours of ethical coffee farms in Costa Rica offers a fresh start.
At first, she’s intoxicated by the thrill of navigating a new culture and the attention of two very different men: one, the charming scion of a wealthy family; the other, a magnetic change-maker. But she soon finds herself torn between conflicting desires and mounting evidence that these “ethical” coffee farms aren’t all they promise to be. Dee knows she didn’t come all this way to join a corrupt system that hides behind phony environmentalism. So how far will she go for justice? For love? And for the life she actually wants?
