Seven-day June immersion

Tia Williams's book, a recent New York Times bestseller and Reese Witherspoon book club selection, has been described as "a heady combination of book love and between-the-sheets love" by Ruth Ware. Jodi Picoult, the #1 New York Times bestselling author of The Book of Two Ways and Small Great Things, praised the book as "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."

Seven Days in June tells the story of Eva Mercy, a single mother and successful erotica writer feeling overwhelmed, and Shane Hall, a reclusive, award-winning novelist who unexpectedly appears in New York. When they meet at a literary event, sparks fly, reigniting the buried traumas of their past and drawing the attention of the Black literary community. Little do they know, fifteen years ago, teenage Eva and Shane spent a passionate, whirlwind week in love. Despite pretending not to recognize each other, they can't ignore their chemistry—or the fact that they've been communicating through their writing all these years.

Over the course of a steamy Brooklyn summer, Eva and Shane rekindle their connection, but Eva is cautious as she wants to protect herself from the man who once broke her heart. Before Shane disappears again, she seeks answers to unresolved questions. Seven Days in June offers sharp insights into the creative life in modern America, as well as the challenges and joys of motherhood and filial relationships. This hilarious, romantic, and steamy tale follows two writers as they embrace a second chance at love.

The book has garnered acclaim from NPR, Kirkus, Marie Claire, and more as a top book of the year. It has also been recognized by Harper's Bazaar, Oprah Daily, and other publications as a standout summer read and one of the best romances of 2021 according to The Washington Post, USA Today, and others.
