This is the translated version of the Spanish book "La Novia" (The Bride)

On the outskirts of the city of Bilbao, Djenaba and Fatu meet at a party and feel an immediate connection. Djenaba, a rebellious and determined young woman, is attracted to the kind and reserved Fatu.

However, she soon discovers that Fatu is engaged in a forced marriage to help her family in Guinea Bissau, a West African country of shared origin for both of them.

The story explores the difficulties these girls face in communities like Guinea Bissau, where homophobia is common. It also addresses forced marriage, something that is not so common but often goes unreported.

Despite cultural and family pressures, Djenaba and Fatu fight for their love and for the freedom of choice in a context that denies them those rights. "The Bride" is a moving story that highlights the importance of true love and freedom of choice, even in the midst of restrictive traditions.

Vision of Love Book 2 *read book 1 before this* You're special to me. You're the only one who I wouldn't mind losing sleep for, the only one who I can never get tired of talking to, and the only one who crosses my mind constantly throughout the day. You're the only one who can make me smile without trying, bring down my mood without the intention to and affect my emotions with every action of yours. I can't explain with just words how much you mean to me, but you're the only one I'm afraid of losing and the one I want to keep in my life. You could say were love struck. feb 2021-mar 2021

How does she know her growth isn't being traded in for the next best, forbidden love affair? Dio Alonso is well-rounded. He's established himself, but as a psychologist, he can't ignore his desire for the next stage of life. Of course, he thought the love of his life would come the normal way, but she might just walk into his life in the most unethical way possible...as his client. If only love didn't taste so good. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Updates biweekly to Wattpad, but early access chapters will be available on my Patreon (link in bio)! Happy reading!
