50 Ways to Win Back Your Lover

by Kelly Siskind

Overview

From Kelly Siskind comes a slow-burn romantic comedy about one man’s creative attempt to win back his high school sweetheart after a change in fortune gives them a second chance at love.

Growing up, I had it all—my art, close friends, a gorgeous girlfriend who owned my heart—but then my life exploded.

Turns out my father was laundering money, and my whole family got shoved into witness protection. No notice. No chance to explain. I was ripped away from beautiful, blue-eyed Delilah Moon, shattering both our worlds.

A decade later, fate has given us a second chance.

The cartel my father worked for has been wiped out. I’ve returned to my hometown, determined to win back the love of my life. But Delilah is engaged.

Or…is she?

I’m almost positive she’s lying about her fiancé to protect her heart. Which means I need to up my game.

I’ve made a list of fifty ways to prove we’re meant to be. Except Delilah’s barely looking at me, never mind swooning. I have a feeling my disappearance scarred her more than she’s admitting, and no one in town will tell me what happened…

Siskind (the Showmen series) opens the Bower Boys series with this delightfully funny second chance romance, unusually told entirely from the hero’s point of view. Ten years prior to the novel’s start, Edgar Bower abruptly left his beloved hometown of Windfall, N.C., to enter the witness protection program while his father was prosecuted for money laundering. Now, ignoring some rules imposed by the U.S. Marshals, he’s finally able to return. He’s armed with a list of strategies to win back the only woman he’s ever loved, his high school girlfriend Delilah Moon. But Delilah comes up with a strong defense to protect her heart from the man who once destroyed it by abandoning her without explanation: she pretends to be engaged, a fraud backed by the rest of the equally distrusting townsfolk. Edgar sees right through this deception, but he’s careful not to push too hard, hoping to show Delilah his sensitivity and commitment. But their shared pain—and Delilah’s life-changing secret—may prove even bigger obstacles to their second chance. Edgar’s voice is humorous, passionate, and clever, offering a vivid and clearly lovestruck view of the heroine. This refreshing rom-com will leave readers eager for the next in the series.

Now that the cartel gone, E is finally able to reach out and try to right the wrong from that fateful day years ago. But is he too late to win her back?
