An Afternoon with Elle Wright
In Conversation with Aja

Saturday, June 27th | 3–5PM
Da Book Joint

Join us for an exciting and intimate afternoon with award-winning romance author Elle Wright as she celebrates her latest novel, The Ex-Dilemma.

Known for her signature blend of heat, humor, and drama, Elle Wright delivers a story that explores love, second chances, and the complications of the past resurfacing when you least expect it. She will be joined in conversation by bestselling romance author Aja for a dynamic discussion centered on Black love, relationships, and storytelling you won’t want to miss.

Wesley Batchelor is in need of a serious image reset. A mysterious social media influencer has been exposing his reckless romantic history, threatening everything he’s built—including his standing with his grandmother and boss, Joyce, the one person who’s always had his back.

When his ex, private investigator Albany Keyes, is brought in to uncover who’s behind the leaks, Wes thinks keeping things professional will be easy—until old feelings resurface and the chemistry between them reignites.

For Albany, taking the job is strictly business. After a difficult divorce, she’s focused on rebuilding her life and protecting her peace. But working with the only man she’s ever truly loved proves more complicated than expected.

As secrets unravel and emotions rise, Wes and Albany must decide if they’re willing to risk it all for another chance at love—or walk away for good.
