Fall in love. One country at a time.
Black Travel Romances is a sweeping, collectible fiction series that follows Black women across borders—and into breathtaking love stories. Created by Davita McKelvey, each book is set in a different country, blending romance, culture, and soul-stirring transformation. Whether she's a wine expert in Chile, a dancer in Senegal, or a vet in the Congo, every heroine carries her own magic. These aren’t just love stories. They’re love letters to the world—and to the women bold enough to explore it.
197 countries! It's a big project.
This project was born from a simple, radical truth: our stories belong on every continent, in every city, across every landscape. We fall in love in hammams and hostels, at food stalls and festivals, on boats, trains, balconies, beaches. We deserve to see ourselves not just surviving the world, but fully living in it — laughing, learning, desiring, healing, connecting.
Every story is grounded in cultural immersion, diaspora presence, and romantic depth. This is for readers who want more than just a kiss.This is for those who crave sound, scent, language, heat, history. This is for those who want to see Black love across the map — and feel it across the page.
