Imagining Us

Will their pasts allow them to have a future together? Elizabeth "Esi" Solomon is an Afro-Caribbean British girl studying at an Ivy League University in Connecticut with big dreams to make the world a better place. Porte Danvers could not be any more different- there was his perfectly tamed blonde hair, grey eyes, and the way that he approaches life and her-intentionally. He is a wealthy Architecture alum at the same university, but hard losses have made him adopt a distant attitude to others. When the two surprisingly hit it off at the campus bookstore, Esi and Porte bond over a shared love of classical literature. As their friendship deepens to something more, both of their pasts threaten to pull them apart. When push comes to shove will their pasts hamper a shared future or will their friendship be lost forever? Imaging Us is a modern story of love, knowledge and learning self-acceptance despite life's obstacles.
