“Fans of Sonali Dev and Helen Hoang will find this just their style.”—The New York Times

Star-crossed lovers get a second chance at romance when they’re reunited at a wedding in Nigeria, in a heartfelt novel from the acclaimed author of The Sweetest Remedy.

Dunni hasn’t seen her high school boyfriend, Obinna, since she left Nigeria to attend college in America. Before their devastating separation, they vowed to find their way back to each other one day.

Twelve years later, and their vow is a thing of the past. Dunni works as a geneticist in Seattle and is engaged to a man she doesn’t love but one her parents approve of. Her future is laid out for her, and everything is going according to plan until she returns to Nigeria for a friend’s wedding and runs into Obinna. The shy, awkward boy she loved as a teenager is now a sophisticated, confident man. Things have changed, but there’s still an undeniable connection between them.

As they rediscover each other, their days filled with desire and passion, Dunni is reminded of the beautiful future she once planned with Obinna. But when devastating secrets are revealed and the reckless actions of their past bring new challenges, she’s left questioning everything, including if the love that consumed her as a teenager is still worth holding on to.

Awesome

This was an immensely great life story and it was well narrated! The main characters were well developed and you feel their emotions.

Love truly stands the test of time!!

This is such a a powerful story of history, love, commitment, and hope. The characters had so much depth and the storytelling was powerful. I was so engaged and listened to this story in record time. I felt so many emotions throughout the story and the characters felt like my family and friends. You won’t be disappointed with this story.

Amazing!!!!!!

The storyline was not predictable. Kept the twist and turns going, and the story interesting. It was healing in a way as an African child 😊

The Noises I was Making

This is the first book, in a long time, that I was very audible about. The shock of so many things. This is a must-read!

So wonderful!

For anyone who believes, or wants to believe in fate and true love. This turned out to be a special and transporting listen. The reader does a pretty good job too distinguishing between the voices of the different characters and between their older and younger selves 👍
