Now that Sunny is a young adult, she begins to learn just how her coffee shop began, and what goes on in the dark corners of the warehouse where they create their special blends from the finest beans and other freshly roasted ingredients.

Welcome to Sunny's, where the pastries are tasty, the coffee is always fresh, and the special blends are brewed with that little something extra
