Published in early 2022, Love Radio is a novel about a self-professed teen love doctor with a popular Detroit radio segment who believes he can get a girl who hates all things romance (Dani’s focused on her plan: ace senior year, score a scholarship, and move to New York City to become a famous author) to fall in love with him. Prince is smitten, but Dani’s not looking to get derailed. She gives Prince just three dates to convince her that he’s worth falling for. Three dates for the love expert to take his own advice, and just maybe change two lives forever. While a potential romance between Prince and Dani is part of the plot, Love Radio is really a book about the love of family, the love of friends, the love of Detroit, and the love of Black culture. And if audiobooks are your jam, Joniece Abbott-Pratt and JaQwan J. Kelly do a great job with the narration.

Literary notes: Love Radio was named People Magazine’s best book of the summer 2022, Apple Books’ best book of 2022, an Amazon’s Editor Pick, and featured on the Today show. It also received starred reviews from both Kirkus Reviews and Publishers Weekly.
