STAR CROSSED LOVERS! BREAKING A CURSE! HARLEM RENAISSANCE! MOVING TO NEW YORK CITY! LEAVING YOUR FAMILY AND THE FAMILY BUSINESS BEHIND! FOLLOWING YOUR HEART!
I listened to the audiobook (thank you Libby), and I highly recommend that format if it is accessible to you. I rooted for Ricki and Ezra so hard, and was so upset when I found out about the curse. If you like a bit of surrealism with your romance, pick this one up!
