Welcome to Ero-TEA-CA: We're Open
Welcome to Ero-Tea-Ca, Oxford’s first erotic tea shop, where the kettle isn’t the only thing steaming.
Harriet Kirkwell has finally found her calling. With her crystal-loving best friend Nabi and her erotic artist brother Kevin, she’s opening a sex-positive, LGBTQ+ inclusive tea shop that celebrates pleasure, empowerment, and the joys of a really good cuppa. Her parents are mortified. The locals are buzzing. And her new next-door neighbor? Absolutely livid.
Cassandra Beaufort is a control freak with a coffee addiction and a deep fear of public displays of pleasure. She prides herself on running a proper café, and she’s convinced that Harriet’s shop of teas and toys will destroy the street’s reputation.
But when Harriet dares her to trade places for a week, Cass reluctantly agrees. What begins as a hesitant truce soon brews into something far more complicated. As judgments soften and attraction simmers, both women are forced to confront the walls they’ve built to keep themselves safe.
A slow-burn sapphic rom-com filled with charm, chaos, and a little bit of kink, Welcome to Ero-Tea-Ca is a love story about taking up space and finding someone who sees all of you—and adores it.
