Seven Days in June

De: Tia Williams

Narrado por: Mela Lee

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.

Couldn’t stop listening and I didn’t want it to end. Mela Lee was the perfect narrator for the book💜Love love loved it 🫶🏾🌸

LOVED IT

The narrator was lovely. The characters were wonderful. I loved this. My favourite read of the year.

A thoughtful love story

Beautiful love story and a brilliant way to unpack trauma bonding. Really great real life anecdotes and just wisdom. I really enjoyed the narration and the cadence of the narrator. 10s across the board.

Well written and well performed.

Finding a work that balances the story and the performances is a moment, Seven Days in June had so many moments wrapped up in one perfectly executed book. I did not want the story to end. I could listen to Mela Lee read a menu because she would bring the entrees to life. I LOVED this book and the way the themes, sometimes heavy, were handled. It is an instant favorite for me and I am now a Mela Lee and Tia Williams stan,

Didn’t want it to end!!

It was such a thrill listening to this story! It was so hard to break away from it cause I always wanted to know what was going to happen next.
