A battered and bruised billionaire falls in her lap and she succeeds in making him fall head over hills for her but obstacles arise.
Obstacles like a wife with a family who is determined to destroy her cheating husband.
Zethu's past and heritage comes back to haunt her just as she is about to secure her man but she is determined to live the way she wants no matter how painful her past, present, or future may be.
Just as her dream of a comfortable life is slipping away from her, she is presented with a solution.
Polygamy.
Will she accept?
And if she does what lies in store for her?
All of a sudden her picture perfect fantasy is destroyed but she has to persevere to make sure her brother becomes something in life.
As the old people like to say, "The woman carries the knife by its blade."
How deep will Zethu allow the blade to cut?

Bloody Zulu Men
"You're my hero, Superwoman," he said, his voice rough like gravel - like he wasn't used to saying anything soft. I smiled, his gaze steady as I tied the last strip of the bandage around his shoulder. "How come my superpowers don't work on you and me?" I asked, quietly, like it wasn't already eating me alive. He didn't flinch. "Maybe they don't work on people who already belong to you." His callused hand brushed my cheek. My chest ached. "Sukhala mama, ungowami wena." And the tears came. Because I'd asked him to fake love me. And now I didn't know where the lie ended and the truth began. He said "mama." inqondo yagoloza,intliziyo yavuma. (my brain said no, but my heart said yes) Ngewami Mamba is a force-an award-winning gynecologist, tech mogul, and humanitarian with a passport full of stamps and a bank account in pounds, not rands. She's the woman every man wants and every woman envies. But when her younger sister announces an unexpected engagement, Ngewami's perfectly curated world tilts off its axis. She was supposed to be first. The wife. The bride. The standard. Now, with the spotlight slipping and her ego bruised, Ngewami will stop at nothing to beat her sister to the altar-even if it means faking a relationship with the one kind of man she's always sworn off: A Zulu man. Sharp-tongued, emotionally armored, and unapologetically ambitious, Ngewami isn't looking for love-she's looking for a win. But love has a twisted sense of humor. And it just might be written in bold, bloody Zulu.
