ENGLISH DESCRIPTION

Publishers Weekly Best Book 2021 Young Adult

Six critically acclaimed, bestselling, and award-winning authors bring the glowing warmth and electricity of Black teens in love to this charming, hilarious, and heartwarming novel that shines a bright light through the dark.

A summer heatwave blankets New York City in darkness. But as the city is thrown into confusion, a different kind of electricity sparks...

A first meeting.

Long-time friends.

Bitter exes.

And maybe the beginning of something new.

When the lights go out, people reveal hidden truths. Love blossoms, friendship transforms, and new possibilities take flight.

Beloved authors--Dhonielle Clayton, Tiffany D. Jackson, Nic Stone, Angie Thomas, Ashley Woodfolk, and Nicola Yoon--celebrate the beauty of six couples and the unforgettable magic that can be found on a sweltering starry night in the city.

Second Violin, Flesh Wounds, and Bluffing Churchill are only a few of John Lawton's 10 works. His thriller Black Out earned a WH Smith Fresh Talent Award, his novel A Little White Death was called a New York Times notable book, and his most recent novel A Lily of the Field was rated one of the greatest thrillers of the year by The New York Times' Marilyn Stasio. He resides in the English county of Derbyshire.
