Love in the Margins is a bold, emotionally rich debut novel about one Black woman's search for love, belonging, and self-worth in the heart of Portland. Autumn is navigating the modern dating world-a place full of awkward coffee dates, unspoken rules, and ghosting disguised as closure. But through sisterhood, heartbreak, and hard truths, she begins to rewrite the narrative she once accepted. Told with warmth, wit, and vulnerability, Love in the Margins is a story for anyone who's ever felt overlooked but still chose to take up space anyway.
