I loved this book!!
Ricki Wilde is the wild child of the Wilde family. She doesn’t want to be part of the family business. She doesn’t like big social gatherings.
Offered the chance of a life time she moves to New York and opens a flower shop in Harlem.
Ricki was always fascinated by Harlem and especially its history during the 1920s. So she feels at home right away.
Then she meets the mysterious Ezra. He doesn’t want to have anything to do with her but they keep running into each other.
I loved the story of these two, the setting, the jumps to the past and learning more about the Harlem Renaissance AND the side characters. A huge success for me.

For some reason, didn’t quite hit for me. Similar to Addie larue, but I didn’t find myself loving the stories or the plot nearly as much!
