About Exes to Lovers
A broken-up couple finds their way back to each other, hauling the wreckage of round one with them. Unlike second-chance romances separated by circumstance, exes chose to end it — which means the reunion has to reckon honestly with why.
All the intimacy is still there, inconveniently intact, and readers love the charged familiarity of two people who know each other's coffee orders and breaking points equally well.
Common scenarios: Divorced partners forced to work one last case together, or exes snowed in at a mutual friend's cabin with five years of unsaid things and one bed.
