About this listen

'A smart, sexy testament to Black joy ... I absolutely loved it' JODI PICOULT

'A vision of life as it truly is: complications and difficulties punctuated by profound joy' RUMAAN ALAM

'A hugely satisfying romance that is electric and alive' KIRKUS


Seven days to fall in love, fifteen years to forget, and seven days to get it all back again...

Eva Mercy is a single mother and bestselling 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 fifteen 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.

Critic reviews

A sexy, modern love story to start the summer off right
A smart, sexy testament to Black joy, to the well of strength from which women draw, and to tragic romances that mature into second chances. I absolutely loved it
Tia Williams conjures a seductive fantasy - rich friendships, star-crossed lovers, artistic fulfilment. But Williams is writing realism, exploring personal pain, family entanglements, and the negotiation of Black identity in a world defined by whiteness. The result isn't escapism (though the book is a delight) but a vision of life as it truly is: complications and difficulties punctuated by profound joy
A novel with a delicious plot, compelling characters, and all of the pop cultural references my heart desires. Seven Days in June is nothing short of a good time. It's funny, thoughtful and its protagonist Eva Mercy is my new favourite pretend writer
Its deliciously witty dialogue, fully realised characters and deft handling of love, race and second-chances will stay with you long after summer
A tour de force . . . A hugely satisfying romance that is electrifying and alive
Grab a fan before reading this one, because it really heats up
One of the most anticipated romance novels of the summer, SEVEN DAYS IN JUNE is a story of love found, lost, and found again. Eva and Shane's story gets steamy, so be sure to read by the water so you can cool off
The hilariously sexy novel is an absolute page turner with every chapter exuding more love, hope and desire as the last
A captivating love story
Bold, romantic and sharply drawn, Seven Days in June will scorch your synapses in the best possible ways
A novel with memorable characters and an original plot
This hilarious, romantic and incredibly sexy novel is a definite page-turner of a messy love story
A gorgeous romance story brimming with hope, joy, and love
It was perfectly paced, funny and without spoiling too much, had a happy ending
This is a romance novel with depth. Williams writes with heart and humour, delivering excellent sex scenes and heart-piercing emotional clarity in equal measure
All stars

narration was great, but you could the ending coming from a mile off. not my cup of tea but I can see other people enjoying it as a light read.

bit long winded

The audio of this book was fantastic! Really able to distinguish each character with the voice developments which is very important!

As for the story itself, it was beautifully written and focused on hard hitting topics such as generational curses that needed to be broken. However, I’m not sure what it was but something was missing from the reconnection of Eva and Shane. But it’s definitely a book I’d recommend and read again!

Hard hitting & beautiful

Decent story but the trauma bond between the two main characters was REAL. Found it jarring. However generally a decent read but wouldn’t read or listen again

Enjoyable but not brilliant

jaw drops, bawlings & squealing in feels
there are no words to describe how good it is

my all time favourite book

Any review I'd write couldn't do justice to this tapestry of life and emotions woven through the years of this couple for whom we desperately desire a happy ending which seems increasingly elusive. Teenage anst to adult adjustments, some lives are fraught with just too many survival challenges.

simply outstanding
