Before Shane disappears though, she needs a few questions answered. 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. 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. What no one knows is that fifteen years earlier, teenage Eva and Shane spent one crazy, torrid week madly in love. When Shane and Eva meet unexpectedly at a literary event, sparks fly, raising not only their buried traumas, but the eyebrows of the Black literati. Shane Hall is a reclusive, enigmatic, award-winning novelist, who, to everyone’s surprise, shows up in New York.
