In the heart of Newtown Zongo, love is not a choice-it is a duty. Amina Abdulai has always known this. She has spent years loving Ibrahim from a distance, keeping her feelings buried beneath the weight of tradition. Ibrahim is everything she shouldn't want-pious, respected, and bound by expectations that do not include her. When a marriage proposal comes-not from Ibrahim, but from Umar Dauda, the son of a wealthy merchant-Amina is forced to confront the painful truth: love has no place in her future. Torn between her heart and her duty, Amina makes the only choice she believes she has. But as the wedding preparations begin, whispers of doubt grow louder. And when Ibrahim finally steps forward, asking her to fight for the love she has always denied, Amina is left with an impossible decision: Does she follow the path carved out for her? Or does she risk everything for a love that may already be lost? Set against the rich culture of Zongo life in Ghana, Beneath the Moonlight is a story of love, sacrifice, and the courage to choose one's own destiny.
