Double Shot by Erynn Mangum

Double Shot is the third book in Erynn Mangum’s trilogy about Maya Davis, a coffee obsessed, slightly crazy, completely loveable barista. Maya works at Cool Beans, a local coffee shop. In Double Shot, she’s just become engaged to Jack. Everything will work out perfectly...won’t it? Maya is faced with the challenge of a possible move to Seattle, honeymoon decisions, her premature nephew, and planning a wedding in only three months. Her faith in God is challenged as she struggles to accept the possibility of leaving her family and her friends.

I really enjoyed this book. When I requested it, I didn’t realize that it was the conclusion of a trilogy. Even though it was the end of the trilogy, it was still great. I was impressed that Eyrnn was able to write a book that could stand on its own, without requiring the first two books. As in the Lauren Holbrook series, Maya has the same coffee obsession and likeable personality.

Unlike the Lauren Holbrook series, I felt like the God thing was better incorporated into this book. In Lauren’s series, I felt like Erynn ended most chapters with one to two paragraphs about God, and that was it. She did a much better job in this novel.

It’s a great read!

Note: I received this book free of charge from NavPress. I was not required to write a favorable review, only an honest one.
