The Way He Looks at Me Again: A Small-Town Second-Chance Slow Burn Romance


Overview

He was the boy who promised her forever. Now he's the man who won't even serve her coffee.Emilia Hart is done. Done with the eighty-hour work weeks, done with the toxic boyfriend who treated her like an assistant, and done with the hollow ""success"" of her big-city life in Chicago. Burned out and broken, she retreats to the only place she ever felt safe: her small hometown of Willowbridge. She plans to sleep for a month and avoid everyone. Especially him. Lucas Reed isn't the sweet, smiling boy Emilia left behind four years ago. Now, he's the brooding, closed-off owner of The Brew & Bean, a man who communicates in grunts and glares. He has spent every day since she left building walls around his heart, convinced that love only leads to abandonment. When Emilia is guilt-tripped into directing the town's Centennial Summer Festival, she thinks it's just a temporary headache. Then she finds out who her co-chair is. Forced to work side-by-side with Lucas to save the festival from disaster, Emilia finds that the tension between them isn't just anger-it's a simmering, electric heat that refuses to die. Between late-night planning sessions, a storm that leaves them stranded, and a town determined to meddle, the walls Lucas built start to crack. But Emilia's old life is calling her back with a promotion she always wanted, and Lucas refuses to be the reason she stays. Can Emilia convince the man she broke that this time, she's not running away? Or will the fear of the past cost them their second chance at a future? The Way He Looked at Me Again is a swoon-worthy, emotional small-town romance featuring a grumpy coffee shop owner, a sunshine heroine finding her spark, and the kind of slow-burn tension that will keep you up all night. Perfect for fans of Emily Henry and Lucy Score.
