Publisher Description
“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.

“ok, I never got to review this after I read it last year but I honestly did quite like this book. I'm a sucker for second-chance romance books and this book had a really good plot, and flow and I definitely liked the characters. So thanks to my bestie, Annah, for recommending this <3”

“I’m not usually a fan of second chance romances but I only had this on my list because I’m trying to get through all of Jane Igharo’s books. I would put this in the same level as Sweetest Remedy. Very corny, sometimes cringey, but still powered through. Dunni was insufferable as the main female character. She was very domineering and manipulative. I did not find any redeeming characteristics in her.”
