The daughter of a powerful Atlanta dynasty, Ricki Wilde is the opposite of her famous socialite sisters. In her bones, Ricki knows that somewhere, a different, more exciting life awaits her. When she moves into a Harlem brownstone, she leaves behind her family, wealth, and chaotic romantic decisions to realize her dream of opening a flower shop. One evening Ricki encounters a handsome, deeply mysterious stranger who knocks her world off balance in the most unexpected way.

Set against the backdrop of modern Harlem and Renaissance glamour, A Love Song for Ricki Wilde is a swoon-worthy love story of two passionate artists drawn to the magic, romance, and opportunity of New York, and whose lives are uniquely and irreversibly linked.

Includes a Reading Group Guide.

I loved this story! I was surprised when things took a magical turn, but I'm learning that I am a magic girlie. The love stories between the characters, romantic and platonic, were beautiful, and as always I loved the back and forth between past and present. I would love to learn more about Tuesday's character though 👀

It wasn’t the typical romance novel but it was definitely a great read! I also enjoyed how this book had bits and pieces of period pieces, referring the Harlem Renaissance period.
