"The book is a sensory feast, teeming with vivid detail: the smells
of rain-soaked dirt and magnolia blossoms, the flavors of blistered
corn and caramelized orange peel, the chill of a walk-in
refrigerator." New York Times "Yerba Buena is at turns decadent and
spare, intimate and elusive, as balanced, fragrant, and masterfully
crafted as a fine cocktail in the hands of someone mysterious and
beautiful. This book is a precious thing." - Casey McQuiston, New
York Times bestselling author of One Last Stop When Sara Foster
runs away from home at sixteen, she leaves behind not only the
losses that have shattered her world but the girl she once was,
capable of trust and intimacy. Years later, in Los Angeles, she is
a sought-after bartender, renowned as much for her brilliant
cocktails as for the mystery that clings to her. Across the city,
Emilie Dubois is in a holding pattern. In her seventh year and
fifth major as an undergraduate, she yearns for the beauty and
community her Creole grandparents cultivated but is unable to
commit. On a whim, she takes a job arranging flowers at the
glamorous restaurant Yerba Buena and embarks on an affair with the
married owner. When Sara catches sight of Emilie one morning at
Yerba Buena, their connection is immediate. But the damage both
women carry, and the choices they have made, will pull them apart
again and again. At once exquisite and expansive, astonishing in
its humanity and heart, Yerba Buena is a love story about two women
finding their way in the world.
