Summary
Seven days to fall in love, 15 years to forget and seven days to get it all back again....
Eva Mercy is a single mother and best-selling erotica writer who is feeling pressed from all sides. Shane Hall is a reclusive, enigmatic, award-winning novelist, who, to everyone's surprise, shows up unexpectedly in New York.
When Shane and Eva meet at a literary event, sparks fly, raising not only their buried traumas, but also the eyebrows of the Black literati. What no one knows is that 15 years earlier, teenage Eva and Shane spent one crazy, torrid week madly in love. While they may be pretending not to know each other, they can't deny their chemistry - or the fact that they've been secretly writing to each other in their books through the years.
Over the next seven days, amidst a steamy Brooklyn summer, Eva and Shane reconnect - but Eva's wary of the man who broke her heart and wants him out of the city so her life can return to normal. Before Shane disappears though, she needs a few questions answered....
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, romantic and sexy-as-hell story of two writers discovering their second chance at love.

So sad it’s over
I felt so sad to finish this book. I wanted to stay with Eva, Shane, and Audrey forever. Such a beautiful, nuanced, and captivating story and exploration of the traumatic youth of two black people who deserve the world, and the joy their futures hold. This was my first Tia Williams novel and I cannot wait to explore more.

Great read
This book made me laugh, cry and also want to pull my hair out - all in equal measure. The prose flowed really well and the dialogue was witty and sharp. The tension and conflict was built up really well and the steamy scenes were seriously hot, without being cringey and over the top. Loved the narrator. Going forward, Tia Williams will be my go to for the romance genre. Had it not been for the tedious epilogue, this would have been a 5 star all the way.

Complicated love story with great characters
I really enjoyed reading this. It gave me complicated, layered characters with a gorgeous love story. I did find the dialogue a bit on the nose and too obvious at times. in general, Williams tackles hard subjects so well and writes chemistry so well that you feel it viscerally

Beautiful story, captivating characters!
I loved the story and how it was told. It was emotional and touching, with some really fun moments. The star of the book is definitely Eva's daughter, Audrey, I enjoyed her character so much.

Loved it… wished for more!
Completely swept me up in the narrative, couldn’t turn it off! I didn’t know I could finish an audiobook this fast.
Loved the narration, thought it fitted the book perfectly. The writing is so sexy and the story soo good. Always enjoy a meddling tween too!
