Description:
His high school nemesis pretends not to recognize him
Billionaire Garrett Chapman can’t believe it when he finds the bane of his high school existence working as a barista in his building.
Not only that, but the girl he used to snipe and argue with daily is pretending not to know him. Convinced that he is being set up by his competitors, he sets a trap to ferret out the corporate spy.
Emmaline Mendez is rebuilding her life after a catastrophic accident. She’s moved a thousand miles away from home to find a fresh start. She has no idea why the high-handed and arrogant CEO in the penthouse office insists she personally deliver his coffee, but one of these days she’s going to spill it in his lap.
A misunderstanding leads to a physical confrontation that turns Garrett’s world upside down. But he recovers quickly. He has to.
Because fate has given him a chance to rewrite history…and he’s going to take it.

My opinion:
The Billionaire Boss and The Barista by Lucy Leroux is the fifth installment in the Rogues and Rescuers series.
After many years, Garrett Chapman unexpectedly reunites with his high school nemesis, Emma Mendez. At first, he suspects she’s come back to sabotage his career. However, he quickly discovers the truth is far from his assumption. Emma’s accident caused amnesia, leaving her unable to remember anything from her life before the incident—including Garrett or their tumultuous past. Determined to right old wrongs, Garrett steps up to help her, realizing she’s the one he’s always loved.
The story features some classic tropes: enemies to lovers, second chances, fake marriage, and forced proximity. It’s an engaging read with a slow, steady build-up that keeps you hooked. The book starts off on a lighter note with their unusual reunion but gradually delves into deeper emotional territory. The twist in their romance toward the end was completely unexpected—a delightful surprise!
I especially enjoyed the pacing of their romantic development and the chemistry in their intimate scenes. My favorite part? When Emma takes charge and "seduces" Garrett—it was such a fun and empowering moment.
If you're a fan of billionaire romance, this book is a must-read!
