The publishing industry has welcomed a new imprint and new work of literature to the world. Based on reviews, critical acclaim has been given to this amazing debut. As a fellow fan of literature, I couldn't help but share what has been discovered. Here is a brief description of this romance novel that is strongly detailed about finding love in an unexpected place.
Elsie is a sexy, funny, and fiercely independent woman in south London. But several things in her life have gone terribly wrong. She’s estranged from her family; is failing to make it as a poet; and has just been evicted from her social housing. As fierce and independent as she is, even Elsie must admit that being a carefree 28-year-old is proving difficult―and that she’s running out of options.
Juliet, her best friend since childhood, has always been Elsie’s lifeline. So even though they haven’t spoken in months, Elsie is soon snuggled up on Juliet’s couch, back at home among the mismatched cushions and knit blankets.
Between their reruns of Drag Race and nights smoking on the balcony, something surprising begins to glimmer in Elsie’s heart. And as the days turn into weeks and then months, this feeling quickly becomes too fierce to ignore. Will Elsie be brave enough to open herself up to love?
Featuring the poetry of Kai-Isaiah Jamal, Rosewater is a deliciously steamy queer romance from a bold new voice. An electric and captivating debut, Elsie’s story teaches us that sometimes home is not always where we are, but who we are with.
As we all know, Get Lifted Books is an extension of Legend, along with business partners Ty Stiklorius and Mike Jackson’s company Get Lifted Film. This production company produced movies and series including Jingle Jangle: A Christmas Journey, Sherman’s Showcase and the International Documentary Association Award-winning Atlanta’s Missing and Murdered: The Lost Children. In a statement, the trio described the production company as a means to highlight “diverse voices that deserve to be heard.”
John Legend shared his love for the release of this debut novel by sharing a video on Instagram. This is the beginning of more pieces of literature that will be released to the world through Get Lifted Books.
