Stars in Our Eyes

Beautiful and vivacious Roxy Ostrowski never dreamed that at thirty she'd have zero love life, be envious of her BFF's perfect life, and lose the best job she ever had. Surely her life can only go uphill from here. Or not.
Roxy accepts a "temporary" job tending bar at Marino's, which would be fun except that her coworker Jack Matthews never smiles at or barely speaks to her. Then her blissfully married best friend gets pregnant, and Roxy's FOMO overwhelms her. So the timing couldn't be worse for Roxy's ex-husband to return, begging for another chance because—so he claims—he's changed.

Loneliness and insecurity have rattled Roxy, so imagine her surprise when an empathetic Jack steps up, revealing he's got her back! As she gets to know him better during their after-hours conversations, her self-assurance begins to return. But just when she's sure they're becoming more than friends, a shocking encounter proves she couldn't have been more wrong. Or does it?

Stars in Our Eyes is an honest, touching, romantic, and sometimes funny story about finding the way back to yourself.
