    They called it The List. Not officially. Never on paper. But every woman in the compound knew-when the gray van came, someone's name had been added. Folake wrote her own name down first. Kemi jumped from a balcony rather than be taken inside. Funmi has spent twelve years searching for a man who vanished. And Nneka kept a box under her bed for twelve years-until today. Now their stories are connecting. Through a notebook in Enugu. Through a forum post in London. Through a name no one has spoken in twenty years: Tunde Adebayo. The List was meant to erase them. Instead, it's about to make them impossible to ignore.

Perfect for fans of Gone Girl, The Silent Patient, and Behind Closed Doors. ⚠️ Trigger Warnings: Psychological trauma, memory loss, murder, grief, and disturbing themes.

    My heart raced as I felt the crowds roar tremble the ground beneath my hooves. I took a heavy step out into the blinding light of the Costa Rican sun that hovered above the mighty arena. I was ready to face him this time. Born to Bull is a story about a young calf growing up in the harsh reality of today's modern world. Never in one place, never safe. This is my first story on here, it's a bit different because it's from the animals perspective, so I hope you like it, I'll post the first chapter and if people like it I will continue to post more. Feel free to leave a comment to let me know what you think of it and any improvements I could make, it would be much appreciated. Happy reading! I do not own any pictures used for this story.

    The Unseen Love In a world full of loud confessions and grand gestures, theirs was a love written in whispers-quiet, unspoken, and yet louder than the rest. Naba never believed in soulmates until Azaan walked into her life-not with fireworks, but with the softness of a sunset, a presence that gently pulled her out of her shadows. He saw her not as the world did, but as she was-fragile yet fierce, dreamy yet grounded. And she... she felt him before she even understood what her heart was yearning for. This is a story of love that bloomed in silence. A love that wasn't shown to the world, but felt in every heartbeat, every passing glance, every stolen moment. It's about two souls finding each other not because they were meant to, but because they chose to-again and again. Because sometimes, the most powerful kind of love... is the one that no one sees but the two hearts living it.

    A shocking discovery in the boot of a burned-out car..... A strange Frenchman with painted fingernails..... A mugging at a nightclub in downtown New York..... A young man accused of a murder he didn't commit..... A modern-day suspense thriller, 'The Painted Man' examines the consequences of trusting your own judgment......without knowing the full picture. When a bouncer at a nightclub is murdered, William Blake, a young man of twenty, is charged with his murder. Under the advice of his lawyer and the insistence of his family, Will lies low waiting for his trial. But, the strategy to keep quiet and the efforts of his lawyer may not be enough to keep him out of jail. The police, convinced they have the killer, have ignored some unusual events that happened the night of the murder, including the disappearance of Angie Phillips, Will's girlfriend. Unable to contact Angie and desperate to stay out of jail, Will reaches out for support in the most unlikely and untrustworthy ally - a New York journalist by the name of Tom Hoke. This version of 'The Painted Man' is the second draft of an unfolding story. I'd love to involve readers in the writing process and incorporate your feedback, so please leave comments. Happy Reading. P.S. My completed novel, 'Road to Rumour', a suspense thriller is available online and through all major online book stores. :)
