A world of adventure awaits them both as they embark on the project of a lifetime.

A South African love story. Sometimes the people who break us are the same people who once made us feel safe. When Lesedi meets Zweli, she finds herself falling for a man who seems to offer everything she has ever wanted: kindness, stability, laughter and a place to rest her heart. But as life unfolds with all its beauty and heartbreak, she is forced to confront a difficult truth: the love we give ourselves must always outweigh the love we pour into others. A story of love, loss, healing and finding your way back to yourself.

When Mbali, Jason, Tumelo and Elsa moved to a pre-ghost village, they had no idea they were in for a mystical surprise. The discovery of an old enigmatic book drove them to an adventure filled with unfortunate events.

Lerumo Zondo has two gifts: a razor-sharp mind and a smile so bright it convinces strangers that he's bullet-proof. But behind that grin lives a storm-grief for the mother he lost at fourteen, rage for a father who resurfaced only to vanish again, and the echo of a family that applauded his failures louder than his triumphs. Now thirty, Lerumo keeps the pain at bay with cannabis, casual sex, and a talent for running from anything that looks like love. Yet the ghosts he's outrunning-trauma, anxiety, PTSD-keep pace. When his younger sister disappears and an old dream of becoming a defense attorney flickers back to life, Lerumo must decide: wear the smile until it cracks, or strip the mask and fight for the man he promised his mother he'd become.

Running from hell isnʼt easy. Especially when someoneʼs dragging you back down into it. Belligerent, brash and always in shades of black, Freya is hardly a lady. Hidden away by her father, sheʼs lived a normal life despite being born into the dark waters of New Yorkʼs underworld. Heʼs cold, cruel and calculating, with a proclivity for destruction. Feared by even Made Men, Torren is the boss of the stateʼs most leachorous crime syndicate. Freya hates his crudity and possessiveness, but she canʼt deny the way her breath hitches at his rough touch, the deep timbre of his voice, and his dark, heated gaze. Torren hates her disobedience, her recklessness, and her chaos. To him, sheʼs only something to be tamed. And after he slips a ring on her hand, snatching away her future, she makes only one vow---to become his biggest torment.

Academic Rivals to Lovers in a Boarding School ..... "You wanna know the really dumb meaning behind my name?" He muses and I walk ahead of him. "Nope." "Basically, it means the transporter of goods by cart or wagon, it's from an old french word I believe. You wanna know yours?" "You looked up mine?" I question, hiding the small smile on my face, because I'm mad at him or whatever. For... I don't know why but I'm mad at him because I am. Carter catches up to me, grinning to himself. "Emilia means rivals, it's derived from the root of some latin word. Isn't that strange?" That's just a coincidence, he's probably lying anyway. "Yeah, real peculiar." I reply. ..... #2 - onebedtrope 16/06/22 #1 - mila 16/06/22
