The Alchemy of Love
The story of Love, or what has been mistaken for it, in its multifaceted and multi-dimensional radiance. Discovering love can be hard, being in love can be harder but keeping and staying in love is surely the hardest. ABOUT THE SERIES I once wrote my first book "The Alchemy of Love" as a single story with three main characters but a few people have complained of its several intricacies, complexities, and mixups so I have decided to rewrite it as a series while my final work will still come out as the compilation of the three series in a new format of the original story. This story took me several years to complete and I have tried to rewrite it in a way that will appeal to most readers. I have had to remove the mention of some names, times, and dates to reduce the complexities in it and I used a little bit of pidgin English and Yoruba Language to express myself where it is needed. I advise that you kindly take your time to go through the story with me as I have taken my time to get each main character out of the juicy story in a format you will appreciate and read without stress. I sincerely apologize for the errors detected in the first edition, it has helped the book get better. Thank you for your continuous love, please continue to read and recommend my stories.Complete
