Seven Days in June (2021) -Tia Williams

"Midway through this book, I noted, “Where they lack in communication skills, they make up in horniness.” However, I don’t fault the book for falling into this dysfunctional trope because the novel really was so much more. This can largely be attributed to the main character, Eva, who is a Black single mother who experiences chronic migraines and has made a career for herself writing erotic romance novels. Eva is chaotically complemented by the love interest, Shane, a Black man who has grown far too used to being untethered: With no family, and recovering from an alcohol addiction. Two years sober, however, Shane is ready to face the past. That doesn’t mean Eva is ready, but they both know that they have been writing to and about each other in their novels since their separation."
