About this deal

Two main characters in this novel: The heroine, Brooklynite Eva Mercy is a mom raising her child alone and a writer. She is a major point-of-view character. The other one, Shane Hall is an award-winning literary author. Tia Williams develops the Seven Days in June story just like the book title implies, the two protagonists fall in love in seven days and reconnect in seven days fifteen years later. Seven Days in June Summary This new Eva, the free Eva, was tired of being rattled by life. How long had she lived being too terrified to show her real self? There was power in showing the messiness of her life and what it took to hold it together.”

I’m going to be one of the executive producers. We’re in very early stages of production, so nothing to share yet, but I couldn’t be more excited to help bring this book to the screen. I’ll keep you posted. You walked away from his books dazed, wondering how he’d managed to rip out your heart before you realized what was happening.” This was the perfect blend of sexy, romantic, humorous, and angsty, and I am definitely adding this author to my "authors to stalk" list because it was just that good. Can we talk about writing sex? So many people, I think, don’t go there because it is terribly hard to do well. How do you approach it? And what are the best sex scenes you’ve read? Eva and Shane deserve the world. i really enjoyed how this book gave us equally parts deep characters and an enticing story. i was on my knees crying for these characters and hoping the best for them💖😭Overall, this is truly a romantic read that will make you want the TV version to come out ASAP. Verdict Editorial note: I received a copy of Seven Days in June in exchange for a review. All opinions are my own. I wasn't sure what to rate this because there were things I LOVED and things I didn't love quite as much. I also don't really think I was adequately prepared for what this book would be like. I thought it would be one of those quirky romances that are kind of light-hearted and while this was that in parts, it was also quite dark and contains a number of content warnings for some pretty upsetting things. Reading it ended up being kind of like a rollercoaster with lots of ups and downs, and while that did work for me, it might confuse or put off some readers.

While Shane is in town over the next week, he and Eva spend time together but Eva has her guard up, considering their past. The story alternate between their current week and their time together 15 years ago.

Need Help?

I couldn’t get enough of their reconnection as adults. I so enjoyed how they both were writing to each other in their successful novels. Both both are a crossroads when it comes to their writing. While Eva is ready to write a more serious book inspired by her family’s past, Shane is now sober and has never written a book without a drink. In other words: This couple couldn't be together by the end of the penultimate chapter, but in the following one, nothing really changed! view spoiler) [I got the idea from my life! I'm Jenna, just not as well-dressed or brave. Much like her, I'd had a glamorous, exciting career as a magazine editor -- and then suddenly, in my late-thirties, the rug got pulled out from under me (laid off, divorce, depression, the worst). I had to completely reinvent myself, from scratch. I was in a dark place for a couple of years. Then, one day, I decided I needed to invent a superhero alter ego who was going through similar things, but came out on top! That was Jenna, and the story became The Perfect Find.

I was immediately drawn to Shane and loved his character. I really liked Eva too, and at first while Audre felt like a typical angsty pre-teen, she grew on me with her old soul personality. I ended up loving all 3 of them and felt for Eva and Shane with the pain they both experienced in their pasts. I love when romance books have all the typical romance elements but don't feel tropey or formulaic. It took me some time to finish this book but I'm currently in quite a serious reading slump so finishing (and enjoying) anything feels like an achievement. After 7 days, could there be a chance to rekindle what they had and move on together from the past? He'd always appreciated families from a distance, looked at them like they were a fascinating experiment: all that intimacy and domesticity couldn't have been more foreign.' - There is nothing more heart-wrenching for me than lonely abandoned children. I can't handle it.I really liked Eva! I felt for her dealing with her chronic illness, whilst working and being a single parent. She was a great character and I wanted the best for her after a rough start in life. Ryan, Gavin (2011). Australia's Music Charts 1988–2010 (PDFed.). Mt Martha, Victoria, Australia: Moonlight Publishing. p.143. He’s not perfect but he is in my eyes. He was incredibly sweet and understanding. His past trauma and how it made him feel unwanted and undeserving of people love made me so sad 💔 but I LOVED his character development it was one of the best. I loved how he used his past trauma and experience to try and help other young students like him. How he wanted to be there for them because he didn’t want them to experience being alone 🤧 he’s perfect 💘🫂 P.S. I absolutely adored the mention of what might be my favorite Mariah Carey album ( Charmbracelet), but TW: There is also a snarky comment made about her later on (that I may have or have may not secretly laughed at 😡🤣). A Best Book of the Year: NPR • Kirkus • Marie Claire • PopSugar • New York Public Library • Bustle • Reader’s Digest • Literary Hub

This book is totally worth reading. It builds a richly layered world and throws the readers into a deeply emotional story. It reveals views on various aspects of life based on observations of contemporary society. Better yet, Seven Days in June contains many excerptable quotes that you will want to save and use in your own writing or inspire your own life. Just give the book a go.

So now it’s another seven days together. They reconnect but Eva has plenty of questions and doubts when it comes to Shane. What happened fifteen years ago? And can they give it another go as adults? Eva and Shane
