by Alice Takawira (Author)

Two lovers. Two Continents. Two Cultures. One unforgettable love story.

Maita, a Zimbabwean graduate student, travels from Atlanta to London on a mission: to reunite with Ade, her Nigerian ex-boyfriend. She made a terrible mistake when she broke up with Ade-and now she desperately wants him back. On the flight to London, she meets Chris, a charming British gentleman who is instantly captivated by Maita and pursues her relentlessly.

When Ade rejects Maita's efforts to rekindle their romance, she turns to Chris. As a couple, Maita and Chris are forced to confront racism, the complexities of an interracial relationship, and their insecurities.

But Maita has never forgotten Ade...nor has he ever gotten over her. So then, in a sudden turn of events, a determined Ade resurfaces and attempts to reconnect with Maita. But Chris is equally prepared to keep her at any cost, unleashing a dangerous chain of events and unraveling a web of lies and deceit with near-fatal consequences that will forever alter the course of all three lives.

Torn between two lovers and two cities, Maita must untangle herself from this tumultuous love triangle. How far will each man go to win her love?

Set in London and Atlanta, Turning Tables is an engaging romantic thriller and roller coaster that explores the challenges and triumphs of multicultural and interracial relationships. A poignant and extraordinary immigrant story about the power of love, missed opportunities, second chances, and the pitfalls of obsession.
