The Way He Looks at You

Every summer at Cousins Beach feels magical, but this year is different from the moment you step out of the car and see Jeremiah Fisher waiting on the porch like he's been counting the minutes until you arrive. He's sunshine in human form-bright, warm, impossible to ignore-and suddenly the familiar beach house doesn't feel so familiar anymore.
As the days are long and golden, Jeremiah keeps drifting toward you: brushing your shoulder in the kitchen, stealing your sunglasses, finding you on the beach when the house gets too loud. He's always been playful, always been sweet, but now there's something else in the way he looks at you-something softer, deeper, almost scared.
One moonlit night, away from the noise of a Fisher party, Jeremiah finally lets the truth slip: he's been falling for you longer than he knows how to admit. And when you realize you've been falling right back, everything shifts. The waves, the stars, the whole summer seem to hold its breath.
The Way He Looks at You is a soft, romantic, slightly angsty story about two people who've always been close but never brave enough to cross the line-until now. It's about the moment friendship turns into something more, the fear of losing what you have, and the magic of a summer that changes everything.
