520    "Feyi Adekola wants to learn how to be alive again. It's 
       been five years since the accident that killed the love of
       her life and she's almost a new person now-an artist with 
       her own studio, and sharing a brownstone apartment with 
       her ride-or-die best friend, Joy, who insists it's time 
       for Feyi to ease back into the dating scene. Feyi isn't 
       ready for anything serious, but a steamy encounter at a 
       rooftop party cascades into a whirlwind summer she could 
       have never imagined: a luxury trip to a tropical island, 
       decadent meals in the glamorous home of a celebrity chef, 
       and a major curator who wants to launch her art career. 
       She's even started dating the perfect guy, but their new 
       relationship might be sabotaged before it has a chance by 
       the dangerous thrill Feyi feels every time she locks eyes 
       with the one person in the house who is most definitely 
       off-limits. This new life she asked for just got a lot 
       more complicated, and Feyi must begin her search for real 
       answers. Who is she ready to become? Can she release her 
       past and honor her grief while still embracing her future?
       And, of course, there's the biggest question of all-how 
       far is she willing to go for a second chance at love? 
       Akwaeke Emezi's vivid and passionate writing takes us deep
       into a world of possibility and healing, and the constant 
       bravery of choosing love against all odds"--|cProvided by
