Ninioluwalere is a culinary aspirant who dreams of becoming one of the top chefs in Nigeria. She struggles with entering University, and as the only child of her mother, she also faces the struggles of living up to her mother's expectations. But she wants more out of life. She does want to just go to University to study and she also wants to chase her passion for cooking, and then, an opportunity of a lifetime presents itself that she definitely wouldn't want to miss.
Folarin is one of Nigeria's fast-rising young chefs, and he takes pride in his skills. He makes dishes that get people's palates watering, but when he meets the implacable young woman who doesn't hesitate to air her opinions about his food, and him in general, he is, let's say, less than intrigued.
Jollof Love follows a love story that happens one bite at a time.

Moonlight Kisses
"Why are you doing that!" she whisper-screams while her eyes flit to the other guys, who are now immersed in something else that isn't us. I kiss that spot again, making her whole body shiver. It's oddly entertaining to watch what my slightest movements do to her. Usually it takes a lot more for a girl to unravel this way, but her breath hitches each time I go to kiss her neck. I could only imagine what my hands could do to her body. "You still didn't answer my question," she huffs harshly. And still she hasn't pulled away from me. Had I been any stupider, I'd say Jordyn was actually enjoying herself. If she hates this so badly, why hasn't she asked me to stop? [] In August, Jordyn Reeve starts attending Crestview Prep and not long after strikes a deal with Beau Clemonte, an arrogant, rude boy who happens to be the thing that can give her what she wants: his best friend, Jake Amherst. Of course, everything worthwhile must come with a price. Despite her outright opinions, Jordyn makes a deal with the devil. Or at least that's what that's what she saw at first -- a coldhearted, stubborn asshole that cared even less than she did. Her only intention was to see this out to get the guy. However, it wasn't that simple for Beau. Cover created by: @meha-k Started October 2020 Completed January 2022Complete
