Aanu lives life as it comes.

It doesn't come very subtly though but she's come to terms with it. However, there is chaos when the core of her existence is shaken by the reveal of the truth about her paternity. 

Forcefully, to protect herself, her education and the people she loves, she then enters an arranged marriage in a land far from hers, with the hopes to get out unscathed.

She fights having to live with a man at all and then an English man that is meaner than his 28 years. She seeks the truth from her relatives back in Nigeria about her paternity and seeks to clarify the issue.

Caleb Turner, who is the CEO of Turner's construction, doesn't live life like a typical English man anymore. He practices a religion that is foreign to his family and society.  He is quite at peace with his chore of a life. 

That though,is until his father set him up for a contract marriage to earn a massive construction deal and hide the woes he perpetuated in the past. 

Caleb on the other hand has to battle his past, his present and work while seeking to protect his family and Aanu,the woman that is his undoing. 

But life doesn't always agree with our plans. And it sure did not agree with Aanu or Caleb.

Here is a story that tells the tale of two different people, distinct in race and creed, falling in love. 

What ensues between them in this money-convent will dazzle you. They fight family, stereotypes, their pasts and even themselves through their own peculiarities to obtain the essence of life; love.

I asked, pushing his hand away. He raised his both hands in the air as defense and tucked them away in his jeans pockets afterwards. "I have a question before you leave." He smirked. He was going to ask me something stupid, I could feel it. I crossed my arms and waited for his question. "You can take your headscarf off as soon as we're married, right? I mean, we are married then." He said taking another step forward. He suddenly grabbed me by my waist, pulling me towards him.
