#5 in Our Roots Series, but can be read as a stand alone. I do recommend reading at least one of the other books in this series before reading this one just so you'll know who everyone is.

Ryder and Courtney are celebrating their 5th wedding anniversary in a big way, bringing their family together for the first time in years.  

Mia, Ryder's little sister, has been keeping a big secret from her family for months now and has to face them at her brother's anniversary party.

CJ and Piti have just become engaged, but when CJ's little brother, Russ, shows up to the party, Piti finds herself in a scandalous situation. 

Everyone leaves the party that night with something that threatens to tear their relationships apart and they spend months fighting the battle of a lifetime....and they are all involved. 

When tragedy brings them back together again, they are forced to confront the secrets between them. 

But when you're all connected to the same roots, you need each other more than you know.

(@Eman_Othman) ** "One of the most lovely stories that I have read so far on this platform. It's perfect." (@Luxami) ******************* Catherine Rogers found it hard to reject her best friend's brother, who was set on winning her over. He embodied everything she hated in a man, pushy, shallow, and selfish. But, Taylor and she had been friends for over 10 years, and Catherine's constant rejection of him was putting a strain on their long term friendship. Moreover, Catherine's heart was already fluttering for someone else: the endearing stranger she meets on the bus. He was kind, patient, and charming. She didn't even know his name, yet there was just something about him that made her swoon. When this mysterious stranger disappeared, she was left with an aching heart, and nothing more than sweet memories of a man who made her smile every time they met. She feared she would never see him again. Until one day, the most unexpected thing happened. --------- A biiiig thanks to all those who loved, voted and commented on Catherine's story. I'm taking the story down from Wattpad because I'm working on publishing it. It's hard work, but it would be a dream come true, please cheer me on. Thanks again for all the love and support! ^^ #42 in chicklit 13th Nov. 2017 Text Copyright © 2017 by Oluwaseun Agunbiade
