Honey & Spice

Presenting the captivating first book by worldwide acclaimed author Bolu Babalola, which is full of comedy, passion, and heart. It revolves on a young Black British lady who has no desire in falling in love and who unintentionally finds herself entangled in a phony relationship with the guy she had warned her kids against.

Hot like pepper, sweet like plantain. When they are together, they taste finest.

Kiki Banjo, who has a sharp tongue but a kind heart, has just committed a grave error. Being a relationship avoidance specialist and the presenter of the well-liked student radio program Brown Sugar, it is her goal to protect the ladies of Whitewell University's African-Caribbean Society from the tangle of "situationships," players, and heartache. However, the Queen of the Unbothered finds her show on the verge of collapse when she embraces Malakai Korede, the man she just publically vilified as "The Wastemen of Whitewell," in front of every Blackwellian on campus.

In an attempt to save their futures and preserve their reputations, they quickly get involved in a fictitious romance. No matter how charming he is or how electrifying their connection seems, a player like Malakai won't be the one to make Kiki give up her love. However, unexpectedly enjoyable study sessions and private, late-night conversations in classic eateries push Kiki to see beyond her own assumptions. Is she prepared to let anything more intimate into her life?

Honey & Spice is a brilliantly humorous and dazzling first book that will have you in stitches. It's packed with tantalizing suspense and love intrigue.
