Something About the Way You Looked at Me: A Romance Novel

Some looks don’t just catch your eye… they catch your soul.

One glance.
That’s all it takes for Harper Lane’s world to shift. On a crowded subway platform, her eyes meet his — a stranger with a gaze so intense, so recognizing, it leaves a mark she can’t explain. It’s brief. It’s electric. It should mean nothing.

But it means everything.

As Harper returns to her life — her work, her friends, her carefully guarded routines — she finds herself haunted by the memory of that look. Who was he? Why does she feel so seen by someone she’s never met? And why is that so terrifying?

When fate places him back in her orbit, Harper is forced to confront more than just a magnetic connection. She must face the walls she’s spent years building, the truths she’s avoided, and the parts of herself she’s never let anyone see. As emotional intimacy slowly replaces the spark of infatuation, Harper and Elias begin to build something not based on fantasy — but on reality.

Messy. Tender. Brave. Real.

SOMETHING ABOUT THE WAY YOU LOOKED AT ME is a slow-burn, soul-deep romance about instant connection, emotional awakening, and the terrifying beauty of being truly seen. A story of strangers who become lovers — not because it was easy, but because they chose to show up when it mattered most.

If you’ve ever believed that one moment can change everything… this is for you.
