The Color of Us

Inspired by true events. Addie Calloway returns to Chicago after losing her mother, with thirty boxes of memories she isn't ready to open and a best friend named Baxter Link who has been quietly in love with her for a decade.Inside one of those boxes is something she never expected: hundreds of letters written by the father she lost before she could know him. Letters that reveal a love story spanning two continents, a war, and a lifetime of longing. Letters that change everything she understood about who she is and who she's capable of becoming.The Color of Us is a novel about grief, inheritance, and learning to love in full color. Emotionally rich and impossible to put down, this debut novel weaves together two unforgettable love stories across generations. Reminding us what we owe the people we've lost, and recognizing what they leave behind to guide us.The story unfolds across two timelines. Addie and Baxter's slow-burning present-day Chicago and the sweeping 1960s love story of her parents, Emma and Jake, set against the tobacco farms of rural North Carolina and the skies of Vietnam.
