Beautifully written, with a perfectly matched narration by Tori Danner, this audiobook immerses listeners in its multilayered love story. After 12 years away, Dunni returns home to Lagos, Nigeria, for the wedding of a close friend. While there, she reconnects with her teenage love, Obinna. From very different socioeconomic backgrounds, Dunni and Obinna were star-crossed lovers. Told in two timelines--then and now--the story recounts the factors that kept them apart when Dunni went to the U.S. for college and had her heart broken. With a lilting, lyrical delivery, Danner's narration sets the tone and pacing for the multidimensional characters. As their love reignites, secrets are uncovered, and plot twists take place, keeping the listener engaged. K.S.M. © AudioFile 2022, Portland, Maine [Published: DECEMBER 2022]
