A past romance carried into the present

Eva Mercy, a single mother who writes bestselling erotica, and Shane Hall, a reclusive novelist, meet again at a literary event after a week of teenage love. Their reunion brings old wounds into view and complicates the public image each has built. The description also points to a private thread connecting them across the years: both have been writing to one another through their books. Alongside the romance, the novel touches on the work of creating in contemporary America and on the joys and complications of being both a mother and a daughter.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • Readers interested in second-chance romance and a relationship shaped by shared history.
  • Readers curious about fictional writers and creative life.
  • Readers who appreciate stories that include motherhood and family relationships alongside romance.

Book overview

Two writers get a second chance at love in this romantic, sexy-as-hell New York Times bestselling novel by the author of A Love Song for Ricki Wilde.

"Smart, sexy. 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. 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.
