The Coffee Shop Next Door

She came back to Maplewood to heal…

He stayed behind, haunted by the past.

Lila Thompson thought leaving her small hometown and her first love behind would be enough to start over. But when heartbreak sends her running home, she finds herself face-to-face with Ethan Reyes — her childhood best friend, her first crush… and the one who walked away eight years ago.

Forced to work side by side to save her aunt’s struggling coffee shop, sparks fly, old wounds resurface, and long-buried feelings threaten to overwhelm them both. But just when Lila begins to believe in second chances, a tempting offer from the city puts everything — and everyone — she loves at risk.

Can two hearts broken in different ways find their way back to each other… before the past pulls them apart for good?

A heartwarming small-town romance full of slow-burn passion, playful tension, and a happily-ever-after you’ll never forget. Perfect for fans of It Ends With Us and Archer’s Voice.
