As Ayize, a black girl from Soweto, and Norman, a white boy, navigate the dangerous waters of their interracial relationship in apartheid South Africa, they face brutal consequences of their love. Will their story survive in a society built on racial division? 

"Why are you in love with me?" Ayize asks, torn between the love she feels and the dangers it brings. "I'm black and you're white. Norman, this is against the law."
But for Norman, the boundaries drawn by apartheid are nothing compared to the depth of his feelings. "I don't see color, Ayize. If it's against the law, then why does it feel so right?"

In a country where interracial love is a crime, Black & White is a powerful tale of courage and resistance in the face of overwhelming odds.

Crossed Paths by NoluthandoJali6

Nosipho thought she had left her high school years-and her first love-far behind. Now a driven young woman with career ambitions, she's focused on supporting her family and forging a new path in life. But a chance encounter at a bustling Durban taxi rank throws her back into memories she thought she'd buried. Behind the wheel of a humble taxi sits Sibusiso, her high school crush, with the same easy charm that once captured her heart. As they reconnect, Nosipho finds herself drawn to the genuine, kind-hearted man she remembers. Sibusiso claims he's struggling to make ends meet, working as a taxi driver to get by. Nosipho believes him, feeling the tug of an old romance rekindling despite his seemingly modest circumstances. What she doesn't know is that Sibusiso is hiding the truth about his success as a way to test her love. While Nosipho's family pressures her to pursue someone more stable and ambitious, she faces a growing conflict between her heart and the expectations around her. When she learns the truth about Sibusiso's wealth, Nosipho feels betrayed and questions whether he ever trusted her feelings for him. As they confront each other's insecurities and past misunderstandings, they both face choices that will determine their futures. In Crossed Paths, Nosipho and Sibusiso navigate love, secrets, and family expectations in a story of trust, sacrifice, and the courage to choose love despite its risks. Together, they must decide if their second chance at happiness is worth the struggles that come with it.

MASKED ATRRECTION by FluffyCrissy

"Melokuhle Bhele was just a girl searching for freedom beyond her wealthy family's strict expectations-a masked party, a mysterious stranger, and one reckless night changed everything. Left with secrets, a growing belly, and a life spiraling out of control, she runs straight into a world of spiritual destiny, forbidden love, and the child who would tie it all together. But what happens when fate pulls her back to the man she tried to forget-and to a truth she's not ready to face?"

SMELLING ROSES by Twisted-Divine

💖2022 WATTYS WINNER IN NEW ADULT CATEGORY!💖 "You know what this reminds me of?" he asked. I shook my head, feeling the rush of our jump stir in my belly. "Being on stage?" "Roses," he said. "When we ended up at the bar where your parents met, and you got me roses, I thought it was fitting. We never would've gone in there if I didn't run out of gas. You know the saying, stop and smell the roses? I thought I would help you slow down and appreciate life. And here you are doing it for me. I guess whenever we're together, we'll always be smelling roses." 🌻🌻🌻 Nora's determined to be more independent, but if she were honest, she's terrified of the idea.

Love is just a word until someone comes along and gives it a memory... You know you're in love when you can say anything to the person and you know they won't laugh at you. When you can see their face when you close your eyes. When you can still feel their arms around you holding you tight after they're gone. When you can still taste their kiss after you have said goodbye. You can tell you're in love when you miss them before they're gone. When their voice lingers in your ears. When their presence eases any pain. When their name sends chills down your spin. When they're the only thing you can think about. You know you're in love when you can see all their hopes and dreams and their soul when you look into their eyes. When they call you at four in the morning to say, "I Love You" and mean it. When your tears stain not only their shirt, but also their heart. When even a simple chore done with them can become a lasting memory. Ultimately, you know you're in love when you can't imagine living without them and can't figure how did you live before you knew them. When they fulfill every need and without them you're incomplete. The love of someone else completes the heart, and sound and mind all at once. 𝐝𝐞𝐜𝐞𝐦𝐛𝐞𝐫 𝟓, 𝟐𝟎𝟐𝟎-𝐟𝐞𝐛𝐫𝐮𝐚𝐫𝐲 𝟏𝟎, 𝟐𝟎𝟐𝟏
