Thank you @grandcentralpub @netgalley for a copy of this. Ricki is the black sheep of the family because she does not want to be involved in the funeral business and moves to NYC to start a floral business. Her landlord, Ms. Della provides her cheap rent and a place to stay in exchange for her company. Moving to a new city, she keeps running into Ezra who is a bit odd but there's a strong attraction between them.
I love how the story goes back in time when Harlem was vibrant and full of jazz music. You learn a little about this history of Harlem while seeing Ezra and Ricki's relationship blossom. The story is so beautiful with found family and love. There is an element of magical realism with was so well weaved into the story.
