the Cafe at First Light: A Clean Friends to Lovers Romance by Harbor

In the close-knit harbor town of Port Alder, Priya Shah has built a life around being capable. As owner of First Light Cafe, she knows how to solve the problem in front of her-even when the truth beneath it is harder to face. Then Samir Khan, municipal planner newly returned to Port Alder, is drawn into a plan to convert the empty net shed into a year-round public market anchored by Priya's cafe. Their partnership awakens a connection neither expected, but a failed inspection and a funding deadline that could end both the market and Priya's lease. To earn the future they want, they must choose honesty over old defenses and discover that home is not merely where you stay. It is where you let yourself be known. The Cafe at First Light is Book 2 in Harbor Lights Romance, a series of clean, emotionally grounded, connected standalone romances. Expect a coastal small town, mature communication, community warmth, kisses-only romance, and a complete happily-ever-after.
