"Girl, I don't know what to do. He wants me in London but.. I mean, look at who he is. I don't want him to use me to catch cruise. It's one thing for me to deal with him when he's HERE but for me to fly out and be doing all this lovey dovey? Yé."
Idara is 27, Nigerian and not looking to get married. She'd love to but the more she gets to know men, the more she questions why the women in her culture stick around when all their men do is lie and cheat. She vows that if she ever gets married, he'd have to be wealthy because love alone can't convince her anymore. "Glowed up", as the kids would say, Idara is looking for nothing short of a good time. Soft life her please. Solo travels and champagne lifestyle... but when one concert changes the course of her life forever, is Idara willing to open herself to what scares her the most or is she meant to forever live as the solo rich auntie?
Asia, Idara's best friend and former romantic. She's done with men & sees them as nothing more than tricks. Even though she's not African, she loves the men. They may not always be the best but they spend and that's all she cares about. Truth is, she's still in love with her Senegalese ex Mohammed, an up & coming alte-AfroBeats artist. She knows he's no good for her but her heart yearns for him. Asia doesn't know who to talk to because everyone around her hates him. Can Asia break free from the toxic hold he has over her and let a man who truly wants to love her show her that there's more to life or will men be forever disposable to her as she waits on Mo?
Devante, Idara's best friend and Asia's cousin. Tall and handsome but he wouldn't believe it even if you yelled it in his face. See, things are different for him because although he tries to live life as his most authentic self, he isn't 100% living in his truth. He wants love just like anyone else but that's hard to do when it's not accepted.
Follow Idara, Asia & Devante as they navigate what it means to live, love and be loved

Break First, Let's Love Later
'I hate you!' She said, her eyes a shade of blood due to the hatred she had for him and the sting of his belt on her body. 'I know. And you'd be married to me by Friday. So, get ready to break into the bits and pieces your body could ever form!' Hidayah Abubakar Rimi, a lady basking in the glory of beauty and love. Or so she thought, for the love part, of course. She had hated him for being like a steel bridge between her and Adam, the absolute love of her life. Why won't her mother or her egoistic soldier cousin, in the name of Ahmad Abdulkarim Muhammad, understand that she loved Adam and will do whatever the hell it was that he wanted. He just had to say it. Party? It's a yes. Clubbing? Of course she's in! Or was it to be laid by him? A whistle would do to have her running to him. She didn't care whether it was a sin, a taboo or that it will get her a beating from a soldier hated by her! But what she had never seen coming was a consequence she knew would break her; heart, body and soul. Being married to Ahmad was a curse and her family were hellbent on seeing her broken self. Will she break and mend? If Ahmad broke her, which he will, will she ever have the strings to weave her broken pieces to a whole piece? Or...will someone be willing to mend her? Not him, certainly.Complete

"What?" Ethan says in his all too familiar deep, rude voice. Ethan has pitch-black hair, is 6 feet tall, with a solid build. His deep grey eyes are glaring at me right now. His jawline is so sharp I'm sure it can cut through anything. "You hit me, spilling my coffee all over me," I say, pointing out the obvious. "So, what do you want me to do about it?" he asks, like he's done nothing wrong. "You're supposed to say sorry," I say in a duh tone. "And why should I?" "Because that's what people with manners do." "I know that, but you don't deserve a sorry from me." "Wow. And why is that?" "Because black bitches like you don't deserve it," he says with a sneer. "I have told you times without number to stop calling me that," I say, angry at his insults. "Make me," Ethan says, taking a dangerous step closer. I don't say anything but hiss and walk past him. I don't know why I expected him to apologize. It's Ethan, after all. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Ethan is a young male about to get his first degree, he might look normal to the world, but don't we all have our demons inside.
