18+ only! 🔥🔥🔥 | Toyin was living her best life! She had the perfect job with an Oil Major, amazing friends, a suitor and a fabulous apartment with a view of the Atlantic Ocean. Life was good until an unexpected breakup led her to the hot but NFA (No Future Ambition) Osaze. An odd pairing which helps her discover herself nonetheless.

	🌴	

Osaze didn't know what he was doing with his life anymore. He spontaneously quit his dream job as a top programmer with Google 3 years ago, moved back to Nigeria to start up his own tech company but failed miserably, was swindled out of his own code by ruthless business partners and is left with a million dollar debt to pay back to his investors. He now squats with a childhood friend in a dilapidated mansion (which is on the market by the way) and drinks his failure away in Lagos bars. When he meets Toyin, a young high flying oil & gas exec who has her own life together he starts to reevaluate his whole existence.

HER WORTH ✓ by Mailaxxybooks

COPYRIGHT © ALL RIGHTS RESERVED!!! . . . "Don't let what's going on decieve you." Najib murmured, a faint smirk tugging at his lips though his eyes were sharp and cold. "You will only end up getting hurt." Habiba's breath caught. "W...what do you mean?" He didn't reply immediately. His gaze lingered on her for a moment, then he looked away as if their closeness was suffocating him. "Don't expect anything from this marriage," He whispered. "And most importantly never make the mistake of falling in love with me." His hand brushed her waist, not quite holding her and not letting go. "I won't." she whispered, though the words trembled. "Never." *** Marriage was the last thing on Habiba's list till she found out she was married to a millionaire, forced to leave everything she's ever loved behind while embracing a new lifestyle... There she meets Najib. Najib; her arrogant cocky husband, never regards or sees her worth, especially the fact of him being married to her. "Will she be able to prove her worth to him and her new society?" *** Started- September 5th, 2022. Completed-July 2nd, 2023.

Serendipity [BoyxBoy] by KingOfCornFlowers

Ten different lives. Two boys. One night that'll bring them all together. Sixteen year old Nosa is okay with being a loner. He doesn't have social anxiety-- he's Catholic and his mum promised you can't love Jesus and have a disorder. He's just weird and he's not good at talking to people but that doesn't mean there's something wrong with him. It does mean that he and Irekan could never be friends. Irekan's parents moved them back to Nigeria to straighten him up-- literally. Being Nigerian and queer has never been easy but now he has to at least try to 'ungay' himself to keep his family together. And that means no falling in love with Nosa's stupid face. Two boys fall in love over novels, anime and rock music that's definitely going to get one of them killed. ❀Winner: 2022 Pride Awards Teen Fiction Category❀ ❀2nd Place Winner: 2022 Pride Awards❀ ❀Featured on the AmbassadorsNG reading list❀ ❀Featured on Stories Undiscovered August 2022 reading list❀ ❀Featured on AmbassadorsAF reading list❀ __Highest Rankings__ #1 wattpadnigeria (3/08/2022) #1 Africanbook (8/05/2022) #1 Africanlgbt (8/05/2022) #5 Blackboys (12/05/2022) #2 Nigerianbook (15/07/2022) #13 Young Adult Fiction (23/06/2024) **This is a bl and it features multiple queer characters.

MR. DEEN by Omasirichii

I welcome you to this Nigerian book that you have never seen in your life. No stress. No overthinking. Just fasten your seatbelts for a chaotic ride! This whole world you are about to enter looks normal on the surface but everything in it is tied to one man. Mr Deen. Every story. Every person. Every small link that looks like coincidence is actually him. He does not force anything. He does not shout. He is not running around trying to control people. He just exists and somehow the entire universe bends around him. He is the reason people meet. He is the reason friendships form. He is the reason friendships break. He is the reason someone makes one random choice that changes everything. Yet he is not touched by the chaos he creates. He is the calm inside a storm that other people start fighting themselves to reach. They want him. They hate him. They love him. They chase him. They destroy each other because of him but he stays untouched like he is living in a different level of life. This book shows you that sometimes the most powerful person in a story is not the loud one. It is the one who stands in the corner and breathes while everybody else burns themselves trying to figure him out. You will meet people who rise because of him. You will meet people who fall because of him. You will see how one man can be peace and chaos at the same time without ever lifting a finger. So relax. Open your mind. Enter this world slowly. Nothing here is random. Nothing here is simple. Everything comes back to him. Welcome to Mr Deen. Let the madness begin. #1 - Abuja (30-12-2023) #1 - Wattnaija (19-06-2024) #1 - Wattpadnigeria (30-06-2024) - (29-07-2024)
