Overview

A tender, wholesome love story about trust, routine, and choosing the quiet yes. Bram de Vries lives by order and structure. As a logistics coordinator at the Port of Rotterdam, he trusts schedules, forms, and small promises that never break. Recently divorced after a short marriage, he rebuilds his life with steady work and quiet mornings. Luisa Carvalho has her own rhythm. A Brazilian confectioner running a modest stall in Rotterdam's Markthal, she shapes brigadeiros with patience and carries her warmth from Santos to Europe. Years ago, in Brazil, Bram had almost asked her a question by the water. Timing did not allow it. When a detour bends his morning route back to her stall, the past and present meet. Coffee and kruidkoek become ritual. Language evenings turn grammar into connection. A simple pact protects their time, their privacy, and their growing closeness. But life tests them: A customs delay threatens Luisa's cocoa supply. Bram is offered a night-shift promotion that could steal his Saturdays. Lisbon calls Luisa back with family ties and opportunity. Together they must decide whether love can be built not on fireworks but on bread and butter Saturdays, quiet benches by the river, paperwork and pastry, and a bridge at first light. Rotterdam at First Light is a clean, slow-burn multicultural romance about steadiness, everyday kindness, and second chances across continents. Perfect for fans of: Wholesome European romances Slow-burn, no-spice love stories Multicultural romance between Europe and Brazil Foodie romances with cozy, sensory detail Second-chance love without drama Characters who choose small routines over grand gestures If you enjoy gentle romances where ordinary routines become extraordinary love, this book is for you.
