Set in the year 1945 till the 1960's Nigeria, six brothers connected by everything but blood live on the edge to survive by any means and make something of themselves. 

In the midst of all the unrest in the newborn country they grow up into having to live double lives as secret criminals and law abiding, handsome, eligible bachelors. All seems to be going well until Dipo, the youngest of them, takes a drastic step that shakes the core of their entire gang. His brothers believe that his driving force is a spoiled, Britain based beauty, the daughter of their greatest enemy who they consider a gatecrasher in their lives. And perhaps they were right. But will the love of these two, young dreamers lead to an eternity of a sweet dream or a prophesied... death?

Family may break you, but there are strangers that will walk you through the journey of healing and help you find the light. After the death of Mary's parents, her older brother-who was just eighteen at the time- became the CEO of their parents company, Jarius Incorporated, an oil company in Nigeria. In the midst of the tragedy, he struggled to keep his parent's legacy. Meanwhile, ten year old Mary found comfort in her brother. Unfortunately, her solace was ripped away when her brother sent her off to their Uncle in the United States. Their uncle on the other hand, is wrapped up in the dark world of money, lust, drugs and arrogance. His greed pioneered a prostitution organisation, forcing Mary to grow into the work. All men are the same to her, "All they want is carnal satisfaction." Until one day, one of her clients, John, wouldn't sleep with her. He'd rather take her out for dinner as his "satisfaction." Mary isn't sure if she can trust this stranger, or is she afraid of finding love that she can never have or keep, because her freedom is constrained by her Uncle's pride and fallacy. Mary and John go on a journey, navigating their faith in a dangerous world that threatens their lives. But maybe, just maybe, Mary's smothered hope will ignite. Mary will learn that she can be made whole again by receiving Jesus as her Lord and saviour, coming as she is, bruised and shattered.
HADASSAH'S STORIES by ziggywrites

"No, Hadassah can't have a crush on her boss. That's impossible," she affirms with a smirk of her own. "Why not?" I find myself asking, the words slipping out before I can stop them. "Because you're with Nonso," Nina reminds me, her tone teasing yet knowing. "And besides, you said it yourself. Gay guys are not your type. That's more of my thing." I squint briefly, feeling a flush of heat rise to my cheeks. Hoping to steer the conversation away from my personal life, I turn to Tega. But he interjects with a surprising comment. "You know, guys, Jamal being gay is all speculation and rumours. It's not like he's come out outrightly or confirmed it," he remarks, attempting to inject a different perspective. "He is. Trust me, I've seen enough to be sure," Nina retorts confidently. ***** This is the story of Hadassah Yahaya, a 24- year old woman whose journey through the city of Lagos takes unexpected turns when she lands a job as Jamal Orji's personal assistant. But as she delves deeper into Jamal's world of wealth and intrigue, and falls in love with Nonso, she finds herself entangled in a web of secrets, crime, and forbidden desires. With her friends Nina and Tega by her side and her own past haunting her every step, Hadassah must navigate the treacherous waters of love, betrayal, and self-discovery in a city where nothing is as it seems.

Maryam never had a say. Although her situation wasn't her fault, people never fail to rub it in her face. If she was a child out of wedlock, she wouldn't have been sad. Atleast she'd be paying for her parent's sin. If she was an Almajira, she'd still lift her head up high and accept what ever the world threw at her, atleast she would still be paying for her parent's sin for throwing her out into the streets. If she was a prostitute, Heck! she'd stand proud and tall, atleast it was her decision to sell her body to men. But, she was neither one of this things. She had lost her father, a day before she was born. Her mother got married to someone else a week later! That marriage came with a whole lot of burden. A burden she was subjected to by her gullible mother. A burden she had no choice but to embrace.
