May December - Paperback

by Nia Forrester (Author)

Her life's work is preserving the past. His could be building her future

As a cultural anthropologist for a renowned Black historical society, May documents stories that tell the culture and history of a people. And as an adoptee, she is haunted by the fear that the history she will never discover is her own.

But when an assignment lands her in South Texas to investigate the origins of a very unusual family name, May finds herself drawn to a much younger man who seems--at least in some ways--to be a refreshingly wide-open book.

Soon, their deepening connection has May questioning whether she's had it all wrong. Maybe she'll never learn the story of her past, but could there still be time to write an unexpected and surprising future?
