In love, as in war neither hero or villain is immediately obvious...especially when loving in London. Deeply romantic Ekuah's experience on the dating circuit has her feeling forlorn and adrift - a very classic 21st century London love story. Her on again - off again situationship with Dee; musician extraordinaire is more draining than she can bear, and when he once again makes a ghost of himself, she reaches her breaking point. Heartbroken, but determined, she channels her energy into searching for new validations and preoccupations, other than the man who keeps getting away. In comes a new lover in the form of poetry which dreamily moves her across nights in London, Venice, Accra and Paris and into the orbit of the enigmatic Jay Stanley. But what are the sweet words of a poet against a history of hard, bad, rough experiences in love? As poetry gives her new purpose and Jay promises different outcomes in love, Ekuah must decide if she is willing to trust in love again or let the past decide her future...
