About The Book:
In 1965 Chicago, thirteen-year-old Dani Marek declares she’s in love, and you best believe it. This is no crush, and for six blissful years she fills her hope chest with linens, dinnerware, and dreams of an idyllic future with John. When he is killed in action in Viet Nam, Dani’s world shatters. She launches a one-woman vendetta against the men she seeks out in Rush Street’s singles bars. Her goal: break as many hearts as she can. Dani’s ill-conceived vengeance leads her to a loveless marriage that ends in tragedy. At twenty-four, she’s left a widow with a baby, a small fortune, and a ghost—make that two.
Set in the turbulent Sixties and Seventies, Just One Look explores one woman’s tumultuous journey through grief, denial, and letting go.

Book Blurbs:
Following the success of her debut novel, SWEET JANE, Joanne Easley returns with JUST ONE LOOK, the story of Dani Marek and her struggle to find herself amid the turbulent Sixties and Seventies in Chicago. Easley’s gifts are her candid characterization and sense of place, the essential page turners for any novel. When she adds the human conflicts of love and loss, JUST ONE LOOK becomes another winner for readers. – Johnnie Bernhard, author of A GOOD GIRL, HOW WE CAME TO BE, and SISTERS OF THE UNDERTOW
With an astonishing blend of tenderness and realism, Just One Look suggests, when it comes to love, that all things are relative. In an engaging, deep-seated story, the hurt of the past haunts both present and future but author Joanne Easley guides us, with laser-sharp insight, into that which moves us forward. – Claire Fullerton: Multiple award-winning author of Mourning Dove and Little Tea.
