The incredible story of one of the most renown tribes in Africa... The Lubas. This is the story of how they came to be

"When your heart is a wild thing, can anyone really heal it?" Oshun has always been the one who heals - the one who fixes others, makes everything better. But what happens when she breaks? She doesn't talk about it. She can't. How could she? There's no cure for the one thing that's killing her - a sickness that takes root in the heart and fills her lungs with petals. It's the price she pays for loving someone who doesn't love her back. And it's getting worse. Then there's Inu'ra. Mysterious. Aloof. The kind of guy who looks like he could crush the world without even blinking. He doesn't know about her secret. He doesn't even know her that well. But there's something about him. Something that pulls her in, even though she knows it's dangerous. He doesn't see her the way she sees him, and maybe that's for the best. But life - and love - are never that simple. Oshun doesn't know how long she can keep pretending. But Inu'ra? He might just be the one to change everything.
