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.

don’t we all love a good second-chance love story? 15 years ago, Eva and Shane crossed paths in high school, bonding over their shared traumas during a transformative week together. fast forward to today, both have become best-selling authors, and fate throws them together again at a speaking event, offering them another shot at connection—this time for a whole new week. Personally, the story took a bit to warm up for me, but once i reached about 30-40% in, i was absolutely hooked! Tia’s writing truly shines, especially in how she delicately handles Eva’s struggles with migraines and her past with self-harm, alongside Shane’s battles with addiction. it's refreshing to witness their healed selves navigate life and love. i’ve come across mentions of separate novels that detail their individual healing journeys, and if that’s true, i am all in for that! the creativity behind the plot is fantastic—imagine two authors communicating over the years through their writings, only to find themselves reconnecting after all that time. the distance between them adds a layer of tension, yet their instant comfort with each other is heartwarming. it’s a beautiful reminder that sometimes love deserves a second chance!

Too much melodrama for me. Had huge potential with a strong start but fell flat.
