The Wildest Sun by Asha Lemmie

Set in the 1950s, a young aspiring writer flees a troubled past and crosses from New York to Paris and Havana to investigate a tantalizing rumor that a legendary novelist might be her father. As she navigates smoky salons and sunlit shores, she chases both the truth of her origins and a voice of her own, confronting secrets, betrayal, and the steep price of ambition before learning what it truly means to become the author of her life.
