NOMINATED FOR THE WATTSPADDING READERS CHOICE AWARDS 
Seven Months follows two scarred souls on opposite sides of Nigeria's most brutal war.

Obianuju, once a quiet student in Zaria, survives a massacre that takes her sister's life and leaves her permanently injured. Haunted by loss, silenced by trauma, she returns to the East to find her home changed and her future hijacked. When war is declared, she forms a rebel cell-not for glory, but for vengeance.

Salisu, the son of a northern civil servant killed in the January 1966 coup, watches his family fall apart under the weight of grief and betrayal. Unable to heal or forgive, he enlists in the military, fueled by rage and duty. But as the war drags on, his reasons begin to blur.

Set between June 1969 and January 1970, Seven Months is a powerful tale of identity, pain, and survival in a country at war with itself. Through shifting loyalties and buried truths, Obianuju and Salisu confront not only their enemies-but everything they've been told to believe.

His For A While de MarshmallowPeaches

Noor Ma'aji never thought she'd see Yousuf Rafi again, let alone marry him. He was her first love, the man who broke her heart beyond repair. Eight years later, they've moved on, or at least tried to. She's making a name for herself as a reporter, and he's a powerful businessman with no time for the past. But when a family will forces them into a contract marriage, pretending to be a couple becomes part of the deal. They agree to play along, for now, and walk away when it's all over. Only it's not that simple. Not when old feelings begin to resurface. Not when the silence between them starts to speak louder than words. And not when heartbreak starts to look a lot like unfinished love. Because sometimes, love doesn't end. It waits.

Nkem wanted him to hold her hand just like he did the handles of her bicycle . She had also begun to love the way her name rolled off his lips. There was absolutely something wrong with her and it always reared its head whenever he was around. "I am beginning to wonder if that one sip of palmwine did something to you. Why did you drink that rubbish Ekene gave you? You seem to keep getting lost " He mumbled a bit taken aback by her lack of concentration. "Nkem!" "Isi?" "What is it? Why do you seem lost in thoughts? Is there any problem?" Nkem shook her head vigorously holding back the need to tell him exactly how she felt. "Ngwanu..we'll find a way to stop those fools from destroying your things. I bet they thought this bicycle was mine too. I shouldn't have e ridden it to school. Are they even stupid? Don't they know that I cannot afford this ! We have to report to the principal"Cheta rambled as he continued to drag the bicycle along while she walked slowly behind. "Cowards! That's what they are..I should" "Cheta!"

She watched in terror as he dropped the bicycle he was holding and marched back to where she was. She held her breath and prayed in her heart that her confession not be the end of her.

At War de michelle18uzoma

"Obanma if you keep vibrating like a car engine, neither of us would get good sleep. I can feel the bed shaking from way over there" He gestured at the edge of the bed where lay he before. Her mouth couldn't form any words in her own defense. "I've been battling with pneumonia I would have left the bed for you. Those tiles might just worsen my case. Besides there's enough space to fit two more people on this bed." She only nodded still staring at him and recoiling inwardly at the proximity between them. Adaugo had once told her that being on the same bed with a man could make her pregnant. Oh Biology her saviour! " I am not that kind of man, I offered you a place to rest for the night and that you shall get. Sleeping with your Jean trousers on, one foot in and foot out of the bed, huddling at the edge which is quite close to the door, wouldn't really save you if I wanted something else. I am a man, I am stronger and faster. So please relax, stop shaking and go to sleep. I have a very busy schedule tomorrow and just like you, I can't sleep unless my surrounding is suitable for sleeping " How did he know all that? Was he a mind reader too? She nodded again then slowly relaxed on the bed, still very much awake. Sleeping was not really what one did in enemy camp. He smiled, gently rolling over to his side to really have a look at her. She was truly very beautiful and innocent. He knew deep down that she could escape if she wanted to, he was no superman and she would definitely elude him. His hands itched to caress and hold her, that feeling was not alien, he had always felt protective of the girl. Onyedikachi simply turned to the other side of the bed with a smile on his face and very familiar words in his heart as exhaustion drove him to sleep. Smart girl! *** Two families living peacefully as neighbors till an unfortunate event turns them into arch enemies. How long will their war last when love decides to make their children mediators?

PARALLEL HEARTS de gimbiya_reads

AN AREWA SLOW-BURN... ©2025 all rights reserved --- Aisha Hassan Saeed never planned to work for a man like Sudais Abubakar Muhammad - the meticulous, intimidating CEO who somehow manages to stress her, confuse her, and fascinate her all at once. She's outspoken, funny, and full of trouble. He's controlled, calculating, and impossible to read. They clash in the office, argue over little things, and pretend they can't stand each other. But underneath the sarcasm, the quiet looks, and the unspoken tension... something is shifting. This is a slow-burn story about a boss who swears he doesn't care, a PA who swears she can't be bothered, and the undeniable pull between two people who were never supposed to get close - yet somehow keep finding their way back to each other. --- ~"An image of complexity, painted in the subtilities of black and gray."

Against All Odds de michelle18uzoma

"What is your name? " he enquired with a staid expression. Obi's eyes roamed around still trying to ascertain the safety of their current surrounding. Her lips were still quivering out of shock and her breathing distorted. "Obiukwu" She finally let out still battling with unsteady breathing. He adjusted the cuff of his pristine white shirt and helped her up. "For a girl with a boy's name you certainly do not think like one. Usually when a female dog comes after you, you don't run towards her young puppies, you run far away from them". She adjusted her pleated skirts which had been torn while she ran frantically from the enraged beast.
