Chapter 27 Summary

Jeanie is in the shower when Logan wakes up the next morning, but as he contemplates confessing his love for her, he stumbles upon the papers the realtor left Jeanie on her table. Logan panics, jumping to the conclusion that Jeanie will sell the café, leave Dream Harbor, and all his worst fears about their relationship will come true. When Jeanie emerges from the shower, an argument ensues. Even though she assures him she’s not going to sell the café, Logan insists they slow things down with their relationship before leaving.

Chapter 28 Summary

Jeanie feels terrible after Logan leaves, especially because he’s insinuated that she doesn’t belong in Dream Harbor. The following day, she finds Norman tampering with the café’s thermostat, and he quits before she can accuse him of any other crimes. Norman admits to the vandalism once Jeanie asks what she can do to make him stay. He reveals that he wanted to buy the café but Dot had said Jeanie needed it more. Norman says he’d hoped to scare Jeanie off by making it too difficult for her to manage the constantly problems of the café.
