PS. This is a sequel to Preordained, my first book. After a night of excessive drinking, an intoxicated Saheed gets help from a stranger. And for payback, she makes an unusual request. Curious and intrigued, he obliges her. What harm would it cause, pretending to be her boyfriend for two weeks? After all, he is quite the ladies man. Living the lie seems easy at first... Until he begins to believe the lie himself... Or is she just too good at acting? ___ Desperate and afraid of being exposed for lying, Olaedo Matthews convinces the seemingly overconfident and arrogant Saheed Bello to stand in as her man for a fortnight. Surprisingly, he fits into the role easily, coming to her rescue a thousand and one times. Soon she realises they might be more than co-actors who know their scripts very well. But what if they're just too good at acting, at covering their shortcomings with smiles and kisses for the public so people can look at them and ask, "God, when?" And after their two weeks together are over, what next? Highest ranking: No. 30 in #Africa 06/08/2020.

I gathered my nightie around me. 'Well, how do I look?' He sucked his breath in. 'You look damn sexy, Nini.' I chuckled. 'I'll take that as a compliment.' 'No, it's true. And, one of these days, guys will be all over you, sweetheart.' He winked in a way that made me swoon. Butterflies in my belly. 'In that case...', I said. 'What?' 'Tell me about Dad's letter.' He was serious now. 'Which part?' 'Baby, why doesn't Dad want Mum to know about my dancing?' Zaire became distant, like he was far away. 'I can't tell you, love.' I laughed, expecting him to laugh too. 'You are joking, aren't you?' He was still serious. I poked him. 'Hey, I'm waiting.' 'It's a secret.' 'But, it's my letter, not yours. I deserve to know.' 'I'm trying to protect you, sweetheart.' I staggered backwards. Protect me, he said. From what? Whom? Why?
