Love (noun)
/lʌv/
 "An intense feeling of deep affection."

Kamharida Nakita Azubuike was an uninspired struggling creative writing student when she met the ever illustrious smooth talking business major with a passion for the arts, Adrian Mayowa Adisa.

To fall in love (action)
 "To develop a deep romantic attachment to someone."

A chance encounter soon begins an intense whirlwind romance of enchantment and attachment, full of affection and ultimately an altar. A love story Kamharida is sure would stand the test of time as she and Adrian are just meant to be. 

To fall out of love (a whole boulder to the face)
 "To become disenchanted with something."

Now an uninspired struggling writer Kamharida is pretty sure her husband has fallen out of love, the divorce papers on what used to be their breakfast table exist as a testament to that.  

How does Kamharida reconcile a love story of the ages to the absolute shambles spread across the breakfast table? And how far is she willing to go to get the magical love story she deserves? 

*I know this plot is all over the place and probably sounds like an absolute right bore, but I promise she's better than she sound. Just give us a chance :)*

Sariah's first year at Clark University is supposed to be about new beginnings, independence, and finding her path. But as she steps into the unknown, she finds herself caught between the expectations of who she *should* be and the person she's beginning to uncover beneath the surface. Her journey of self-discovery takes an unexpected turn when she meets Mercedes, her eclectic, Afrocentric, crystal-loving roommate who introduces Sariah to a side of her culture she's never fully explored. Mercedes' unapologetic embrace of her black roots and spiritual practices forces Sariah to confront the parts of her identity she's kept hidden or ignored, opening her eyes to a deeper connection to her culture. At the same time, Sariah finds herself paired with Drew, a mysterious and artistic classmate, for a challenging art project. Initially, Drew seems like just another classmate-but as their collaboration deepens, Sariah begins to see him in a different light. With Drew, she finds herself questioning more than just her art; she begins to wonder if she's ready to open her heart and take a leap into something more than just a creative partnership. Sariah navigates the messy, beautiful, and transformative process of learning who she really is, embracing her culture, and discovering that sometimes, the path to self-awareness is more about the people we meet than the answers we seek. A tale of friendship, love, and self-empowerment, this coming-of-age story is a celebration of what it means to find your roots while forging your own identity.

Many of the sad parts reflect real-life experiences, while the happy moments, feelings, and endings are surreal-woven from the threads of dreams I couldn't realize.

But through this story, I wanted to give myself the happy ending that life didn't grant me.To anyone reading, I hope you find joy, reflection, and perhaps a touch of healing within these pages. Thank you for sharing in this part of me.

Adopted numerous times, rejected just as much times as she was adopted - moving from one foster home to another. This girl learnt to be tough, she wasn't weak, she didn't want to get broken by anything she'd come across. Instead, she'd give herself a reason to look at the odds with a shrug, and move on. Alongside a crazy highschool experience and overwhelming infatuations as well as teenage dramas and insecurities, Alisa Chimezie, threads through the eggshells placed before her, with her head held high and an indifferent shrug. A thirst for power, shielded by greed and selfishness, A tango with the devil, in the shadows of her own nightmare, A bath in blood, and secrets - too scary to reveal... All these are served on her plate, with her nightmares slowly coming to life, in the Ekwegh mansion. The lies on their tongue, so frequent, yet brisk with it. Everyone seems to be liars, and are not who they claim to be. And in this hazy madness, and cobweb created by her fears, Alisa is left all alone. Adopted. Rejected. Wronged. One can only hope that her guard isn't left broken and shattered. Warning: Contains a few cussing and a little bit of violence. Not much. ~Bittersweet~ Copyright © Chisom. A. S 2020

💔 TRUE BLACK LOVE by Ilianna Binoche (Andrea D. Tumblin) She's bold. Brilliant. Beautiful. And she refuses to shrink for anyone. "What other people hold onto in their tiny brains about Black women is none of my concern," Africa Kenyatta Anderson reminds herself every time someone underestimates her. 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? Or will the weight of the world-and their own scars-prove that true Black love is the rarest kind of miracle? ✨ Genre: Contemporary Romance • BWWM • Love & Redemption • Emotional Drama 🔥 Tropes: Strong Female Lead • Broken Marriage • Second Chances • Emotional Healing • Black Excellence
