Honey and Spice: A Passionate and Hilarious College Romance

Kiki Banjo, a sharp-tongued host of the student radio show Brown Sugar at Whitewell University, has built her reputation on helping women of the African-Caribbean Society avoid romantic entanglements and players. After publicly kissing Malakai Korede—a man she had just denounced on air—in front of the entire campus, both their reputations are threatened. To salvage their futures, Kiki and Malakai enter into a fake relationship. Kiki, who has never opened her heart before, is determined not to let a charming player change that, despite their undeniable chemistry. However, study sessions and late-night conversations at diners gradually push her to reconsider her assumptions about him and about love itself. This debut novel combines humor, romance, and tension as Kiki navigates whether she is ready to surrender her carefully guarded heart.
