Seven Days in June

Two writers get a second chance at love in this romantic, sexy-as-hell New York Times bestselling novel.

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. What no one knows is that when they were teenager, Eva and Shane spent one crazy week madly in love. They can pretend they've never met, but they can't deny their chemistry--or the fact that they've been secretly writing to each other in their books through the years.

With its keen observations of creative life in America today, as well as the joys and complications of being a mother and a daughter, Seven Days in June is a hilarious starcrossed romance.

Just the right amount of smut, but I was needing a little more of their story as kids. But I thoroughly enjoyed this book

I cant believe I shelved this book 3 times! When I finally picked it up, determined to finish, I could not put in down. I have the physical and eBook so I could read anywhere. I was in the nail shop with the phone propped reading...and crying. I highlighted so much because it was just so on point. I love the relationship Audre and Eva have despite Eva's childhood. I loved seeing the growth in Shane. It was a slow start for me but it was so worth it. All my book besties said I would love this book. The only thing that was a little annoying were little add ons referencing the culture. I didn't need comparisons to Nas, hip hop music or to know that Sascha and Malia where somewhere as toddlers as it didn't relate to the book. The scene was already set so I felt those were extra. I'm going to say that it's up there as one of my favorite romance novels. I am happy with the ending as I thought it was going to be too predictable but there was a little twist that made it unique. I'm going to go on ahead and give 5 stars

loved loved. LOVED this book!!!! I related on so many levels to the characters and became emotionally involved. so many tragedy and heartbreaking stories, but the way it's written, the character development, back story, and everything I feel in love! I didn't really feel it or know I was feeling it until 3/4 through when I started to cry.... and then I laughed out loud... it's incredible and moving! and so real life! NOTICE TO ALL: DO NOT PLAY AN AUDIO IF IN AN OFFICE ENVIRONMENT OR YOU NEED TO BE PROFESSIONAL HAHA.
