Eli Preston and Xaden Pierce have been working together for a year and still haven’t figured out how to get along.
Eli, a financially struggling Computer Science scholar, has always been unimpressed by Xaden—the happy-go-lucky and flirty football scholar who seems to have everything. Working together is a nightmare, considering they argue every waking second What makes it even more difficult is the fact that Eli’s not actually unimpressed, and that he’s been crushing on Xaden since the day they met.
Xaden has never quite understood why Eli wants nothing to do with him. He’s always thought they could have a wonderful friendship—and more than that, if given the chance.
Closing Time is an MM Contemporary Romance Novella between two part-time baristas who are complete opposites and completely into each other.

My Review: 4/5 Stars
Eli and Xaden have been working together at the coffee shop for a year now, and they still can’t get along. Eli gets annoyed with how late Xaden is, where he leaves his bag that Eli tends to trip on, and the fact that Xaden flirts with everyone. So okay, maybe truthfully Eli has a crush but he is trying super hard not to. But when their boss tells them they need to sort it out, she forces them to close the shop down and do some inventory and figure out a way to get along. And in doing so, it may just finally give them the chance to actually say what’s on their minds. Because it looks like Eli isn’t the whole one who has some feelings. This was a cute, fun short novella! Eli and Xaden’s banter was fun and I love that they finally got out of their own way and did something with the spark that was clearly between them. A fun story for sure!
