"Love isn't enough to make a relationship work, I had to learn that the hard way."
Set in the heart of the north, Kano state and the heart of the country, Lagos state.
Amirah hails from the typical hausa home and is considered to be the typical perfect daughter.
Tied by her sudden marriage to Muhammad, a man whose love she doesn't reciprocate, Amira fears she hasn't been given the chance to live her life as she wills and the list of things she has to do keeps growing.
Meeting AbdulRahman, the man whose eyes glints with wickedness and the air around him reeks of danger is the worst thing that can happen at the moment and she finds herself tremendously drawn towards him.
Muhammad isn't all innocent and angels as he has his own secrets to maintain and keep hidden. All isn't fair in a marriage of lies, deceit, cheating and psychological trauma... Throw in a secret child and you have all you need to build a marriage that'll end in doom, or not.

Shadows of her
A NOVELLA- Nabila's world had once been filled with light, laughter, and love-until the darkness crept in and consumed it all. For the past year, she has lived in self-imposed exile, hiding from the people who knew her and the memories that haunt her. Once vibrant and full of dreams, Nabila now drifts through life in a haze of sadness and indifference, clinging to the faint hope that happiness might find her again, though it feels impossibly out of reach. Umar's life is no less tangled. Stuck in a complicated marriage, his only joy is his young son, who anchors him in a life that often feels unlivable. As a father, Umar's devotion is unshakeable, and he would sacrifice anything to keep his son safe and smiling, even if it means enduring a life that stifles his own happiness. When Nabila and Umar's paths unexpectedly cross, they discover a kindred spirit in each other-someone who understands the pain, the yearning, and the fragile hope for something better.Complete
NASEEB
Hafsa, a breathtakingly beautiful woman in her mid-twenties, has lived her life trapped by the invisible chains of a deeply traditional Hausa-Fulani society. Determined to avoid the stigma of being labeled a divorcée, she endured a marriage that eventually broke her. Now divorced, she faces a harsh reality-freedom tainted by societal judgment. Her beauty draws countless admirers, yet the moment her past is revealed, they scatter like whispers in the wind. Her family urges her to remarry, pushing her to choose from suitors who see only her outward allure. But Hafsa isn't ready to settle again-not for convenience, not for approval. She craves something far more precious: healing, peace, and the chance to rebuild her shattered self. Amidst the relentless scrutiny, Ibrahim enters her life-a man who sees her beyond the labels. Quiet, strong, and unyielding, he becomes her anchor in the storm. Ibrahim watches over her, shields her from the cruelty of the world, and gently mends the wounds she's too afraid to show. Against all odds, he fights to be with her, defying a society that deems their love impossible. In a world where the scars of divorce threaten to define her, Hafsa must decide: will she let the stigma shatter her dreams, or will she take Ibrahim's hand and rewrite her story on her own terms? A moving tale of resilience, self-discovery, and an all-consuming love that rises above the noise of judgment and tradition. This is Hafsa's journey-a battle to reclaim her life and prove that even in a world of broken expectations, love can conquer all.Complete
