Anjola Adeite is an extremely logical person in all her dealings, even in matters notorious for emotional entanglement clauses. Although a bit of a wallflower on the relationship turf, she has a well defined criteria for choosing romantic partners with healthy traits-that wouldn't derail her rational path. Lekan Keye is the quintessential playboy. All about the sensual uncensored pleasures, never about the commitment and devotion. As an atheist of relationships, he believes the price of commitment is too costly and so indulges in temporal, sexual arrangements. After the planning of a crucial event, forced them into close proximity and triggers a forbidden attraction, they find themselves at an impasse. For Anjola, it's the fact that she's never had feelings for a wild person like Lekan-who on the other hand, seeks the reason why his pull to Anjola isn't singularly borne out of lust. When they conduct an experiment to test their compatibility however, they both rely on the proven principle that posits that-a change of character is possible for Lekan, as long as there is enough fuel driving driving him. Fuel they wrongly assume, to be love.

THIS BOOK IS NOW A PREVIEW It wasn't the color of his eyes, or how they were hooded and look almost half asleep, everything took on life as long as she stared into his eyes. It was what she saw in them, what he made her see, how he looked at her, there was not a single stare of his that hadn't plunged her more in love with him, with his eyes he made her feel loved, he reprimanded her with them and he made her toes curl under her feet. All the deep, dark twisted side of him became opened to her, through his eyes, at his expressive best, or when they shifted to conceal a pain that he was sure revealing that would cause her pain. His Hazels. *** If Being Bilaal's wife came with a price, it was a tag worth every cent, every pain and sacrifice she'd made all her life..
