Seven Days in June

Product Information

I don’t know what Tia Williams smoked, I don’t know what sorcery she conjured up, because her storytelling abilities? Out of this world. I’m not exaggerating. This book gave all me all the things, every emotion you can feel, it gave. Told in two different timelines, it was unflinchingly raw and honest and at the same time was layered with so many different types of love. Romantic love, parental love, friendship, student/teacher, community, and culture. From generational trauma, to dealing with a chronic debilitating disability to drug abuse and the struggle of single motherhood, this book doesn't shy away from difficult topics. Shane and Eva burrowed themselves into my heart, their stories are so heartbreaking and tragic but at the same time their resilience and strength is so beautiful and inspiring. I loved this book with my whole heart. 💙 World Hydrography Day is observed on 21 June every year to increase public awareness about hydrography science. Every year the International Hydrographic Organisation (IHO) and its international members celebrate this day. Shane had been sober for two years and needed to get more stable in his sobriety and build his self-confidence. Eva needed time to work on her new book and decide what she wanted. The Ending of Seven Days in June History and Future 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.

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. Eva starts seeing Shane, and they rekindle their love. It’s clear to everyone at a party they attend, a party hosted by friend and mentor Cece, that they are a couple. Audre approves and spends some time talking to him at the party, and she invites him to come to their mother/daughter brunch before she leaves to visit her dad in California the next day. Present ConflictsOver the next seven days in the middle of a steamy Brooklyn summer, Eva and Shane reconnect, but Eva's not sure how she can trust the man who broke her heart, and she needs to get him out of New York so that her life can return to normal. But before Shane disappears again, there are a few questions she needs answered... Every year on 4 June, the United Nations (UN) International Day of Innocent Children Victims of Aggression is observed to raise awareness about the children who have suffered a lot throughout the world and are victims of physical, mental and emotional abuse. On this day UN affirms its commitment to protect the rights of children. 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 feel like I’m HOME on this bayou full of short people who inherited generations of farms and fields and stories and terror and rage and brilliance and resilience and gumbo and culture. And everyone looks like me Eva knows she is still susceptible to Shane's charms. Shane is also still in love with Eva. He also cares for her daughter, and sees the three of them creating a new family together. However, Eva is still afraid that Shane will disappear from her life again. She is unsure how to let her relationships coexist. Decades later, Eva and Shane have learned to live without one another. Since high school, Eva has gone to rehab, attended college, won a writing contest, and signed a book deal. The book deal makes her a sensation in the world of erotic literature. Over the years, Eva continues expanding her Cursed series. Though she feels conflicted about the work, she also knows the books have sustained her. She lives with her daughter, Audre, in Park Slope, Brooklyn. Outside of writing, Eva has few friends and does little to expand her social life. 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.I loved EVERYTHING about this gem! The chemistry between Eva and Shane is OFF THE CHARTS! I felt electricity in the air every time I read a scene with them in the vicinity of each other. While there is a scene or two with serious steam, it doesn’t overpower the book, and still allows for deeper aspects. Shane grew up in foster care. The first time he felt loved and cared for in a family, he lost that family. The mother was killed while taking him to the hospital the first time he broke his arm, and his foster father did not keep him after that. He started getting into trouble with the law and into drugs and alcohol. And he punished himself by deliberately breaking his arm numerous times over a span of years. A Whirlwind History
