The Wrong Crowd [Wattys 2020]
A NIGERIAN THEMED NOVEL "You have got your tities out and panties in a twist but your crush doesn't still notice you." Ore is a sixteen-year-old undergraduate of the university of Portharcourt. Before she entered year one, she was that shy, reclusive and sweet girl everyone wanted to be friends with. But as soon as she pays her acceptance fee and moves her things to the school hostel, Ore is no longer that miss goody two shoes. Dami is a third year student of the same university and he doesn't give two fucks about under age girls. They were never a center of attraction for him. Infact, he loathes them with passion. Dami is absolutely content with his sexually provocative lifestyle and he certainly doesn't need any of the problems that comes along with knowing Ore. With the wrong crowd cheering Ore on, will she be able to get Dami's attention? Or will her life keep on revolving in circles of endless passion and peer pressure. Side note: The sequel to this book titled Lies, Love and Deception is out now and is on my profile. Kindly go view, thanks β€οΈ *. * . * The Wrong Crowd is one of the best Nigerian books I've ever read. It's totally uncliche and cliche in a hazy interesting way but then, it was just the tip of the iceberg - @Semiloore_ Started: 10/3/20 Ended: 25/5/20Complete
A Beautiful Catastrophe - Book 1
If you're given a chance to live once more, will you take it? Even if... it comes at a cost? A dying woman reminisces on her short life and comes to regret not doing the things she likes - always sacrificing her own happiness for her family. On her deathbed, she whispers her wishes to a friend. "If only I could go back in time, I'll make sure to live my life for my sake and not somebody else's." Little did she know that her impossible wish would come true with the help of a mysterious woman. And in her second chance at life, she meets a certain problematic person... "Kaiden Ma" - a young and handsome genius who is also the richest heir in the East - has a little problem. One - he is way too grumpy; and two - he is mysophobic. With his family pushing him in a relationship, the problem escalated. For how can he possibly be in a relationship if he can't even touch anyone? Due to this, he is forced to look for a suitable "pretend" partner. "Senara Lee. I'd like to offer you a deal." "Hm? A deal? What deal?" "I need a fake girlfriend and you're the only one who's trustworthy enough to assume the position. Be my girlfriend for a year and I'll make one of your books into a movie." "For real?! You bet I'm in! Anything for my babies!" (babies - she's referring to her books, yes, she calls them her babies). And so, their hilarious and catastrophic game begins. Well, at least until the "Guardians of Fate" comes in. What will they do with this romance that wasn't supposed to be? And what is the cost of this new life she was given? πΈ πΌ π½πππͺπ©πππͺπ‘ πΎππ©ππ¨π©π§π€π₯ππ πππ§πππ¨ πΈ β A Beautiful Catastrophe - Book 1 π¨ A Beautiful Catastrophe - Book 2 π₯ A Beautiful Catastrophe - Book 3 - 4Complete
Scars To Your Beautiful : A Modern Beauty and the Beast retelling β
Life for Callie had never been an easy one but it was something she had gotten used to. For this emotionally lonely girl, it entailed balancing school with work, taking care of her mentally ill dad and dealing with a pointless high school drama that she had been webbed in. But when her dad got arrested for something he didn't do, Callie took it upon herself to appeal to the person who put him there. What she didn't expect was to get tangled up with the quiet, emerald-eyed Larkin Hammell and opening up her fragile heart to a boy with more baggage than she ever had. Larkin Hammell had enough scars on his face and his heart, likewise, to last a lifetime. He had become a shadow of his former self and all he wanted was to be left alone to wallow in his pain and grief. Hiding away from the world and wearing the guilt of his past on his sleeves were all part of Larkin's plans. Then everything changed when fate swept her into his life unexpectedly. Is love ever enough to fix the fragments of a broken heart or is it all you need to pick up the remaining pieces before it gets completely shattered? *** π1st place - Monarchy Awards (Teen Fiction Category) π1st place - The Innovation Awards (Romance Category) π1st place - The Ulven Awards (Romance Category) π Winner of "Best Fantasy" Category - Nigerian Readers Choice Awards π3rd place - The Noble Awards (Teen Fiction Category) Readers' Reviews - "Is this really chapter 1?

Before we ever metβοΈ
What happens when a teenage girl, freshly grieving her father, is forced to grow up, shift cities, and start life all over again-from the classroom to her confidence? Set in the northern heart of Nigeria, this is the journey of Jawahir-a quiet, who navigates university life with a strong sense of family, a tight circle of best friends, and a love for soft things-like routine, reflection, and whispered prayers between lectures. But just when she's getting used to school life, a late-night scroll on Instagram changes everything. She finds him-a gym model, far from her reach, but somehow carved into her heart. A crush turns into a secret obsession. For 4 years, she watches him from afar, never speaking to him, yet praying about him. This isn't your typical love story. It's a slow burn wrapped in hijabs, lecture notes, girls' group chats, and the sweet ache of young adulthood. It's about growing up while holding on-to faith, friendship, and the soft, stubborn hope that maybe, one day, love will answer.Complete
