Sophia tries to navigate this concept of love, while juggling her own life.

. . . . . The man took her to a small office downstairs. It seemed he was the owner of the hotel, given how well he knew his way around. She sobbed quietly, her sister's betrayal hurting more than Halima's beating. Today, she had to find out that her sister had no heart. "Take this," the mysterious man passed her an ice pack. "Use it on the swelling." She took it from him. "Thanks." The man studied her. She looked so young. What was a young lady like her doing in a hotel while her mates were in school? The man wondered. Women of today have no shame at all. "What were you thinking?" he asked. "Excuse me?" she asked, cocking a brow. "What were you thinking when you followed that man to the hotel? Don't you have any shame?" "Stop it. Stop talking as if you know the whole truth. You don't even know half of the story, but you're already judging," she said. He cackled. "Oh, really? What I witnessed is enough for me. You sell your body for money. It's as simple as that." "Shut up!" "The truth hurts, right? Next time, you should think before repeating the same mistake." "Please shut up!! Please," she broke into tears. It hurts a lot. Now she's the prostitute. People will laugh at her if they come to watch the videos some people took. "Okay," he raised his hands up in surrender. "I want to go home," she stood up. "I can send my driver to drop you if you want." "No, thank you. Wouldn't want part two to repeat itself," she said sarcastically. "Thanks for the ice, anyway." A story about two sisters fighting for their rights. A secret they've sworn to keep from the world. One of these sisters has to take the blame for the other sister's wrongdoing, and there's no way this innocent sister can speak the truth. No one would believe her, except one man.

There is a thin line between love and hate. A delicate balance, a twist of fate. A tender glance, a fiery gaze. A gentle touch, a heated shove. Yet in the balance we are known to reside, where love and hate collide in our hearts. So as we walk the line and we embrace the fire, with the love that soothes and the hate that tires.. along the line, we realize that something so strong, can only ever be compared to something even stronger. Such is the case for Khayrah Ammal and Muhammad Adnaan. Where in the pursuit of disdain, lines get crossed and what we thought was so clearly hate, turns out to be something softer, something with a promise. Though, with all love stories, there can never be a promise of a happily ever after. Something so close might sometimes be farther than we think.

Alisha Kabir has loved only one man since she was eight years old. But life had other plans. After her family's painful downfall from wealth to survival, she rebuilds herself in Abuja, chasing a career in cybersecurity while nursing a heart shattered by betrayal. She swears never to fall in love again. Then fate brings back Ibrahim Bello her childhood friend, now one of Abuja's most respected doctors. He doesn't recognize the little girl who once followed him everywhere. She never stopped loving him. Just when they begin to find each other again, an old family feud stands between them. Their parents, once inseparable friends, now refuse to let their children marry because of a betrayal that destroyed two families years ago. With another man already chosen as her husband, Alisha makes one reckless decision. She tells a lie. A lie so big it forces Ibrahim into a marriage he never wanted. A lie that saves her dream... ...but may destroy the only man she has ever loved.

Two years after burying her father and walking away from the marriage that broke her, twenty-six-year-old Fathia has rebuilt her life on her own terms. A successful lawyer, she spends her days fighting for justice and her nights caring for her mother and raising Hammad-her late sister Khadijah's son, the little boy who became her entire world. Living in her father's spacious duplex, Fathia has convinced herself that love is a chapter she'll never reopen. No matter how many eligible men her mother introduces, her answer is always the same. No. Thirty-nine-year-old Captain Aliyu Haider Ardo has his own reasons for staying away from love. Wealthy, respected, and one of the country's most accomplished pilots, he has spent years burying himself in work after losing the woman he planned to marry in a tragic train crash. Since then, he's kept his heart locked away, believing some losses are too deep to recover from. But one reluctant visit to his mother's cousin changes everything. The woman who opens the door isn't soft-spoken or eager to impress. She's sharp, stubborn, fiercely protective, and completely uninterested in him. For the first time in years, something sparks. As two guarded hearts begin to collide, old wounds, family expectations, painful memories, and a love they never saw coming threaten to pull them apart. Can two people who have sworn off love find the courage to choose it again, or will the ghosts of their pasts keep them from the future they deserve? Sometimes, the brightest flames are the ones born from ashes.

What comes next after forever?

The first time they met, Ayman Hakeem Bellow knew there was more to the woman named Ayra Leilani Abdulaziz but there were boundaries he knew better than to cross. While he knew they would see each other more often with his cousin courting her best friend, the last thing Ayman expected was for them to meet under different conditions; as employer and employee in a brand he's built from scratch with his cousin, Aneesa. Following her divorce from Ibrahim Fahad, all Ayra Leilani Abdulaziz wants is to find herself and get her life back on track for her sake and for the sake of those she loves just so they no longer have a reason to worriedly fuss over her. The last thing she expects is for her boss to turn out to be Ayman Hakeem Bello; the same man who'd left an impression when she visited the UK, and the very cousin of the man her best friend is courting. Their friendship is a natural occurrence with how interwoven their lives become and they tell themselves that's all it'll ever be. After all, they've both taken shots at love and they both ended up with broken hearts. However, love sometimes blooms when and where you least expect it to, and Ayman and Ayra are about to learn that sometimes, falling in love again is better done late than never...

On the day she got to know about him, Ayra Leilani Abdulaziz realised she wanted nothing more from the world than to be Ibrahim Fahad's wife. Years later, her dreams are coming true and she's in the one place she'd dreamt of all along: right by his side with his surname as hers. Unlike the sunshine and rainbows she'd imagined, Ayra's forced to learn that being Mrs Fahad is nothing like her fantasies as the picture perfect position is nothing but an illusion, concealing ugly cracks in seemingly perfect portraits, intelligently crafted lies, deceitful masks, and betrayals that come in the worst of ways. Once all is unveiled and up in flames, and there's no way to turn back, what then happens when everything becomes too little and too late...?
