Eva also has a disability-she gets crippling migraines-that impacts her relationships and ability to live a more “normal’ life. Eva is forced to move from city to city thanks to her mom’s instability and reliance on shady men. We follow their journey from reconnecting as adults to their first meeting as teenagers.īoth come from traumatic backgrounds. I went into this novel believing it would be more of a lighter read but there’s actually quite a bit of depth. I love love love Eva and Shane! It’s been a while since I’ve read such strong characters in a love story. What happened fifteen years ago? And can they give it another go as adults? Eva and Shane They reconnect but Eva has plenty of questions and doubts when it comes to Shane. A chance encounter brings them back together fifteen years later. Eva writes fantasy erotica stories ( Twilight meets Fifty Shades of Grey) while Shane is more of a literary author who wins prestigious book awards. Expect for the fact that they’re both using each other as inspiration for their bestselling novels.

But circumstances force them apart and they both try to forget about each other. It’s that intense, maybe even a bit dramatic, love that only being a teenager can bring. For a week during their teen years, they were inseparable.

Both are writers and they share a romantic past. But about survival and accepting who you truly are-flaws included. But Seven Days in June broke that trend-it’s compelling, romantic and complicated, with some humor but also tough scenes. I can tell many books published this year were written during the pandemic and they just have a bit of a down vibe. May was a bit of a bust for me reading wise other than The Last Thing He Told Me. This was the exact kind of book I needed to read right now! My favorites so far are: Northern Spy by Flynn Berry, The Last Thing He Told Me by Laura Dave and now Seven Days in June by Tia Williams. She’s definitely picked a mix of all kinds of genres and subject matter.

So far, I’ve read every Reese Witherspoon book club pick of 2021.
