Sareeta Domingo's If I Don't Have You makes you fall in love with love all over again.

Filled with drama, suspense and of course, Domingo's now signature passionate page turning narrative, If I Don't Have You is sexy, raw, honest and intense. Once again Domingo gives us the revolutionary gift of exploring the life of a Black woman in love whilst being loved. Phenomenal. -- Melissa Cummings-Quarry Domingo's prose holds your attention to the very last word. By the end I felt like I'd survived a rollercoaster ride through a hurricane... -- Just Read It
