Scarred For Life
*Could you ever love a broken person?* "I understand that you're broken," he said as he lifted her chin so she stared directly into his eyes. "But I want you to understand that it is my job to restore the happiness you lost. I am your husband now, Afrah. And it is my responsibility to make you happy. So that is my mission from now until the end of time." Afrah stared down at her hands, feeling as though her soul was being wrenched from her body. She couldn't look him in the eye. Not after what she had gone through. Not when she still saw the devil in his eyes. * It is said that the most painful wounds leave the deepest scars. No one could attest to that more than Afrah Aminu. For eleven years she's kept a secret to herself, knowing that she might never be able to tell anyone. Not that she wanted to. But now, with the sudden arrival of a strange man in her life, she finds herself thrown into the terrifying situation of having to relive it all. As he tears down each and every wall she has set up around her heart, the memories of that haunting night come crashing in waves. Will she be able to survive it? Or will she be crushed underneath its weight?Lengkap

Once a girl with pigtails and too many dreams, she's now a dark-skinned, curvy powerhouse running circles around men who swear she doesn't belong in their boardrooms. Sharp as a blade and twice as dangerous, Africa built her empire from grit, grace, and the audacity to believe she deserves more. But success comes with a cost. Back in her hometown, Israel Nathaniel King is watching the life he built slowly unravel. His wife-the woman he sacrificed everything for-has checked out of their marriage, chasing ambition while leaving his heart and their children behind. He's done everything right: husband, father, provider... and still, it isn't enough. When Africa and Israel's worlds collide, sparks fly between two people bruised by love, broken by expectation, and desperate to believe that something real still exists. Can a woman who's fought to stand alone learn to let someone in? Can a man who's lost his faith in love learn to trust again?
