Just Friends by Haley Pham [Paperback]

Blair and Declan were childhood best friends who grew up together in the small coastal town of Seabrook. Their friendship gradually blossomed into first love after an impulsive kiss changed everything. However, a painful event tore them apart, ending their relationship and leaving years of heartbreak and silence between them.

Four years later, Blair returns home to help her family and care for her beloved great-aunt Lottie. Looking for work, she takes a job at a local coffee shop—only to discover that Declan is her manager. Forced back into each other's lives, the former friends and lovers must confront unresolved feelings, old misunderstandings, and the secrets that drove them apart.

Through alternating timelines that reveal both the sweetness of their first love and the pain of their separation, Blair and Declan must decide whether they can overcome the past and build a future together.
