ABOUT A LOVE SONG FOR RICKI WILDE
One florist. One pianist. One love story. A hundred years in the making.

Ricki Wilde is the impulsive, free-spirited daughter of a powerful Atlanta family, but she’s nothing like her polished sisters. A dandelion in a family of roses, Ricki knows there’s more to life beyond her privileged upbringing.

When a regal Harlem matriarch invites her to rent the bottom floor of her brownstone, Ricki seizes the opportunity to escape and follow her dream of opening a flower shop. But beneath Harlem’s vibrant streets, the legacy of the Renaissance still lingers.

One evening, a mysterious stranger knocks Ricki’s world off balance in the most unexpected way.

Set against modern Harlem and the glamour of the past, A Love Song for Ricki Wilde is a steamy, heart-pounding romance of two artists bound by passion, magic, and fate.
