Exes and Aisles - A Bridal Boutique Second-Chance Romcom

A bridal boutique, a sponsor scandal, and the ex who left without goodbye. Fiona must keep her store standing while Asher returns as her forced liaison, and a hidden texter tries to shatter their second chance. Fiona has built her bridal boutique on two things she can control: perfect seams and professional calm. Then a high-profile sponsor campaign lands in her lap, and the store turns into a spotlighted stage where every mistake becomes a headline. Fiona can handle demanding brides, tight deadlines, and endless fittings. What she cannot handle is the sudden return of Asher, the ex who walked out years ago and never gave her a reason that made sense. Now he is back under sponsor rules as her official liaison, standing in the same aisles where she once pictured a future with him. He is still gentle in the ways that matter, still infuriatingly steady, and still capable of making her heart react before her brain can stop it. Fiona tells herself the arrangement is only business. Then the anonymous messages start arriving, perfectly timed to hit the wound she never let anyone see. The texts are not random. They know her history. They know what to say to crack trust open from the inside. Someone in her orbit is trying to sabotage the campaign, the store, and the fragile possibility that Fiona and Asher could rebuild anything at all. As pressure mounts, Fiona chooses a different kind of strength. She stops negotiating in private. She keeps doors open, witnesses near, and facts clean. And when the truth finally comes out, it changes everything Fiona believed about the night Asher left, the "protection" she was promised, and the power games hiding behind polite business language. Exes and Aisles is a clean, low-heat romance comedy about second chances in daylight, boundaries that protect the heart, and the messy, hopeful work of trusting again when love comes back through the front door instead of the shadows.
