Books like After hello by Lisa Mangum

When Sam and Sara's paths cross, neither one of them is prepared for what they will find out about each other--and about themselves when they form an unlikely partnership in search of an elusive work of art, and especially when they have only one day to do it. Sam is a struggling artist who has lost faith in his own talent, while Sara is a librarian who has always been fascinated by rare books. Their unlikely alliance is put to the test as they navigate a world of stolen art, mistaken identities, and a mysterious old woman who knows more than she lets on. As they work to solve the mystery of the painting, they begin to uncover secrets about their own pasts, including the love they never had the courage to pursue. Will they be able to trust each other enough to see past their differences and work together to complete the task ahead? Or will the ticking clock take its toll on their relationship and their pursuit of the elusive painting?
