A beautiful coming-of-age story, a poignant romance, a tale of discovering one's true self... Jorja Tabu brings you: SAVOR.
Ciara McKinley's mother disappeared shortly after depositing her with her father in Chicago at the age of two years old. Determined to find out more about the woman that abandoned her, Ciara leaves her hometown and her gigantic African-American family to attend the University of Washington in Seattle, but discoveries are few and far between; she knows nothing about the Snohomish culture her mother came from, including where to start looking. Lonely and frustrated, the only person who really seems to understand her struggle is also the rudest study partner anyone's ever been saddled with: the devastatingly handsome and just plain devastating Alix Nagakura.
Alix misses his brother. He misses Hawai'i, he misses the ocean, he even misses bickering with the ex and the boring routines that drove him to attend college away from the Big Island, his beloved home. He has a mission, and he won't give in until he becomes the formidable opponent of the state his people need. But in Seattle, everyone and everything drives him crazy, at least until he has to hang out with a foul-mouthed firebrand from Chicago... Who doesn't just drive him crazy--she drives him wild.
This is the companion volume to SWEETER, a BWAM romance that takes place in Hawai'i and follows the love story of Ash, Alix's twin brother, and the love of his life, Phaedra. Each book can be read as a stand-alone, although--just like the explosive pair thrust together in Savor--they compliment each other well. This story is also an epic coming-of-age tale for a bi-racial millenial and, like all Jorja Tabu romances, looks at real issues faced in real relationships; in this one, we look at some issues from real life as well. Please enjoy: SAVOR, the eleventh book in the Multicultural Romance Series How Do You Want It.
