"Some stories are written in ink, Others, in the heart... This one is both." When seventeen-year-old Essie discovers an old leather journal beneath her father's bed, she expects forgotten receipts or notes from a life too ordinary to matter. What she finds instead is a past pulsing with heartbreak, fire, and a love that refused to die. Through the pages of her father Henry's journal, a decades-old secret unfolds - of Uju, the woman who haunted his silence, and the journey that took him from desire to devastation, and from loss to redemption. Set against the vibrant backdrops of Ibadan, Abuja, Lagos, and Enugu, Henry's Journal is a hauntingly beautiful tale of what happens when two souls collide at the wrong time... and still try to love anyway. This is a story about the ones who leave lasting marks, the ones who carry them, and the children caught between memory and truth. Love isn't always a fairytale. But sometimes... the truth is more powerful than the ending.

"A marriage neither of them chose. A chemistry they can't ignore. And a fate neither of them can escape." "You're avoiding me." Yusra froze, fingers tightening around the silk scarf. She didn't turn. "I'm not." Fahad scoffed. "You barely look at me. You barely speak to me." "Maybe there's nothing to say." He stepped closer, his voice low. "You've been acting like I don't exist since the conveyance. If you have a problem, say it." Yusra turned, chin lifted. "Why would I? It's not like you care." His jaw tightened. "You think I don't?" "You don't act like it." Silence. Heavy, charged. Then, before she could move, his fingers brushed hers-a fleeting touch, but enough to send a jolt of heat through her. She inhaled sharply. "You think I don't care? Since when?" His voice was rough, edged with something dangerous. He leaned in, forcing her to look up. "Then tell me why you're shaking." She wasn't. At least, she didn't think she was. But now, with his touch lingering, she wasn't so sure. Fahad's gaze flickered to her parted lips before he pulled back, his restraint like a thread about to snap. "You don't want me to care, Yusra," he murmured. "Because if I do, neither of us will be able to stop what happens next." And just like that, he walked away-leaving her breathless, rattled, and desperate to understand why she suddenly wanted him to turn back.
