The sequel to the instant New York Times bestseller gives fans more of everything they loved about The Davenports—escapist romance, breathless intrigue, family relationships, and wealthy Black 1910s Chicago.

Newly engaged Ruby Tremaine is eagerly planning her wedding to the love of her life when a nasty rumour threatens her reputation and her marriage.

Olivia Davenport has committed to the social justice cause and secretly hopes she'll be reunited with dashing lawyer Washington DeWight—until her parents decide she's to marry someone else.

Amy-Rose Shepherd is making her lifelong wish of owning a salon come true, but when an incident forces her to return to Freeport, she's back in the path of John Davenport, who still holds her heart.

Helen Davenport is determined to get over her own heartbreak and bring the Davenport Carriage Company into the new century, even if it means teaming up with a thrill-seeking racecar driver who just loves to get under her skin.

Inspired by the real-life story of the Patterson family, More Than This is the second book in The Davenports series, following four empowered and passionate young Black women as they navigate a rapidly changing society and discover the courage to steer their own paths in life—and love.
