Practically identical covers! The striped awning, characters hanging around in front of the store, title above the storefront...
The second book is one I am listening to because I had been approved for an ARC of it a while back. When I looked it up on Goodreads, I was hit in the head with "A Clean Romance" under the title. Not all editions of the book have this on the cover, and I 100% would not have requested it if I had read that in the ARC description. I went back and looked, and that was never mentioned.
I have nothing against a closed-door romance, but I absolutely hate the term "clean romance" because, of course, it implies such a thing as "dirty romance." And I hate that morality policing of the romance genre.
At any rate, I'm much more looking forward to reading the first book, which is a sapphic later-in-life love story.
