Detan Tijani is Africa's golden boy. After an unprecedented three-year streak of being the bestselling novelist in the world and amassing colossal wealth, he returns home to Nigeria with a crucial presidential election looming. When he's put on the stand in an interview, he criticizes the powers-that-be and unknowingly sets into motion a devastating chain reaction that upends his peaceful life. Tiolu Adekeye is a beautiful anomaly. Born into the upper echelon of society, her aberrant persona has her leaving her life of comfort behind, in a self-searching quest to help the less privileged. As a physiotherapist, she's burdened with the need to make true impact and not be an inconsequential cog in an ineffective machine. However, she's in for the shock of her life, when she realizes that shuffling between her vastly different worlds is no small feat and it comes with an unbearable toll on her psyche. With Detan's newly-minted status as a socialite in the country, he inextricably crosses path with Tiolu, who proves to be an exhilarating guide into this brave new world of ostentatious intrigue and drama. And as the elections draw close, Detan finds himself at a crossroads of becoming a sellout or staying true to his beliefs, at the cost of endangering his own life and the lives of everyone he cares about. Backed into an impossible corner by the resentful henchman of a presidential candidate, Detan must decide if his reputation and everything he holds dear-is too steep of a price to pay for the salvation of his ravaged country.

Ari Callahan has no idea how to talk to boys -- or how to talk to anyone for that matter. Enter Zac, the cute new guy in town who won't stop texting her. But is his interest real, or does he have a hidden agenda? ***** Found as a young child washed up on the beach, 17-year-old Ari Callahan has never uttered a word out loud to anyone -- not even her adoptive family. Psychologists have diagnosed her with a condition called selective mutism, but Ari can't help identifying with her namesake character, Ariel, the little mermaid in the fairytale whose voice was stolen by a sea witch. Mermaid-obsession aside, Ari's silence makes socializing tough. She's never had a boyfriend or been asked out on a date. Not until Zac, the confident new arrival in town, asks for her number. But Zac has his own reasons for texting with Ari. He's part of a movement to sabotage the artificial music app called SirenSong, threatening to render human singing obsolete. Zac's collaborators have scoured the globe in search of a singing voice perfect enough to break the SirenSong spell, and their search has led them straight to Ari's beachside town. Will her relationship with Zac help Ari find her voice and unlock the secrets of her origins? Or will he use her and leave her high and dry? Title: Ari and Zac (formerly The Mermaid Hypothesis) Content Warning: This story contains references to selective mutism, suicidal thoughts, and early childhood trauma.

It started on Wattpad but now is EVERYWHERE with an upcoming film adaptation by Wattpad WEBTOON studios coming to Tubi. Stay tuned for film release updates! In the meantime, read the original story that inspired the film. KISSING IS THE EASY PART is published by Wattpad Books. Please order from the link in my profile. *** Being beautiful might as well be Flora Morgan's only talent. Some of the words she hates include economy class, second-hand clothes, and budget. She likes fashion, dating, not being on time and getting what she wants - until she meets Sean, who is like the clock striking midnight; he erases all her magic power. He is as mature and sophisticated as the dark roasted coffee he drinks, while she is like a lollipop: colorful, dazzling on the outside but empty calories and artificial sweeteners on the inside. The attraction is instant, but getting a kiss is only the first step. To keep their fire burning, they must accept each other's differences and decide if what they're building is strong enough to survive trials, jealousy, expectations, and the fear of becoming someone they no longer recognize.
