The alliance between Cara and her new husband is a million lightyears away from that of most couples. And it is not only because they are not meant to be but also as, truthfully, their relationship is built on treachery, deceit and betrayal.
Time soon proves, to Cara's dismay, that neither she nor her husband truly knows each other as much as they think themselves to. However, before then, the thought that constantly troubles her is that she is the reason for her twin sister's death.

Yaki's Confession
Yaki has kept her secret buried for years. Everyone thinks they know why she turned down Ekene-the perfect man, the unforgettable ex-to marry someone else. But the truth is darker, messier, and far more dangerous than anyone imagines. When Ekene suddenly reappears, the memories she tried to bury come rushing back. He was charm wrapped in perfection, but behind the glitter was pride, silence, and a love too fragile to survive reality. Now, through this confession, Yaki reveals what really happened-why she walked away, and the price she paid for choosing safety over desire. Yaki's Confession is a raw, gripping tale of first love, haunting choices, and the secret that refuses to stay hidden.

Say You're Sorry
*** They may have buried the truth, but nothing ever stays buried. Fifteen years ago, a reckless joyride ended in a deadly crash, and a secret pact between three friends to leave the scene and never look back. Arafat tried to move on, haunted by the memory of that awful day. He found love again, the one bright thing in a life stained by guilt. And until now, he thought he could outrun the past. Until one of the three friends is found murdered, and the message at the crime scene reads: "I know what you did." Now, Arafat must uncover the truth he thought they'd buried, before the shadows of that day consumes him completely. Someone out there remembers. Someone out there wants revenge. And they won't stop until everyone who was in that car pays the price. Because some sins don't just haunt you. They hunt you. ***
