Rhyme & Reason — Nia Forrester

Maybe friendship is all that's realistic for us right now.With those words, Zora ended their long-distance relationship, shattering Deuce's vision of a life with the only woman he's ever loved. But after months of silence, he thought he was over it. He'd moved on, hadn't he? And as far as he knew, she might have done the same. Now Zora is back from California, and he's thrown into an immediate tailspin. Nothing's changed.She's the one, the only, his rhyme, and his reason ...But this ain't no college romance. There are serious, grown-folks' obstacles standing in the way, and the other woman in his life isn't even the half of it. Sometimes growing up might mean moving on. Over a few short summer weeks, Deuce and Zora will have to decide whether the great love they shared in the past, is enough of a foundation to build a lasting future.
