I absolutely loved it." --Jodi Picoult, #1 New York Times bestselling author of My Sister's Keeper "Gutting, arousing, and sparklingly witty ... a love story with depth." --Vogue Eva Mercy is a single mom and bestselling erotica writer. Shane Hall is a reclusive, award-winning novelist. When the two meet at a literary event, sparks fly, raising not only their buried traumas, but the eyebrows of the Black literati.

My 3-star rating does not mean I didn’t enjoy reading this book. I really did enjoy it. I just felt that it was missing something. It felt incomplete to me. I wanted more romance from the main characters, and we really didn’t get that. Overall, a good read.
Seven Days in June by Tia Williams is so much more than its title suggests. What starts as a second-chance romance unfolds into a deeply emotional story about first love, trauma, healing, and finding your way back to yourself.
Eva and Shane share a complicated history that began as teenagers, and years later they’re both successful authors whose lives have taken very different paths. When they’re unexpectedly reunited, old feelings, painful memories, and unresolved wounds resurface, forcing them to confront the past they’ve both been trying to outrun.
This novel doesn’t shy away from difficult topics, including mental health, addiction, alcoholism, childhood trauma, and chronic pain, while still delivering humor, chemistry, and heartfelt moments. Tia Williams created characters who felt authentic and flawed, making their journey all the more compelling.
I went into this book expecting a romance, but I got so much more. It was emotional, beautifully written, and completely different from what I anticipated. If you’re looking for a story that balances love with healing and emotional depth, I’d definitely recommend giving this one a read.
