Naa has always loved deeply and too quickly, chasing the idea of love more than its reality. After years of emotional highs and painful disappointments, she decides to change her direction and choose peace, choosing God above the chaos of fleeting feelings. But healing is not linear. When new connections appear, old patterns resurface in unexpected ways, testing everything she thought she had outgrown.
One night, after praying earnestly for divine guidance in her love life, she had a dream-one that left her shaken. In the dream, she saw herself growing close to a certain young man from church, Alex. She barely knew him, never even considered him, yet here he was, appearing in a vision so vivid she couldn't ignore it. What could this possibly mean? Was God trying to tell her something, or was it just a figment of her imagination?
As she embarks on this unexpected spiritual and emotional journey, Naa must navigate the fine line between faith and personal desires. Will she trust God's plan for her heart, or will she let fear and doubt hold her back?

The Devil's Crybaby
Eliza Labelle had survived a shooting that should have killed her, but surviving turned out to be the beginning of her problems rather than the end. After waking in a hospital bed with a bullet wound and a government determined to bury the incident, she discovered that the man responsible had vanished behind the walls of a place most people only whispered about. While her family tried to push her back into her privileged city life, strange events and growing unease made it impossible for her to forget what happened. When she was suddenly taken from everything she knew and dragged beyond the safety of the world she had grown up in, Eliza found herself trapped in a brutal land ruled by old loyalties, hidden power structures, and people who lived by laws far different from those of the city. As she struggled to survive among dangerous strangers, she uncovered secrets that connected powerful families, forbidden territories, and a world that had been carefully hidden from ordinary people. The deeper she was pulled into that world, the harder it became to separate friend from enemy, truth from manipulation, and survival from sacrifice. What began as a fight to return home slowly became a journey that forced her to confront the darkest parts of human nature, the cost of loyalty, and the reality that some doors could never be closed once they were opened.

The Pause
Maeve wasn't looking for anything the night she walked into Shine. She was on a disastrous date with a man more interested in other women than in her - and when he ditched her to dance with someone else, she was left alone and ready to leave. That's when she met Nathan. Their connection was instant - raw, electric, and far too deep to ignore. They fell fast and hard. But when Maeve opened up about her hopes for marriage, children, and building a home grounded in Christian faith, it became clear Nathan wasn't in the same place. Not yet. Still in love but spiritually torn, they agreed to take a break - not to walk away from each other, but to give Nathan space to search for the truth and decide where he stood with God. During that pause, Taylor entered the picture. Kind, steady, and already a part of Maeve's church life, he offered what seemed like clarity in the midst of confusion. But her bond with Nathan lingered - powerful, unfinished. Then came the accident. As Nathan lies in the hospital, and Maeve wrestles with the weight of timing, both are brought to the edge of themselves - and of their faith. What does it mean to truly trust God? Can love endure while waiting for transformation? And is it possible that the pause wasn't a delay... but part of the design? The Pause is a stirring, faith-filled love story about surrender, timing, and the quiet miracle of two hearts being reshaped by God - together.Complete
To Keep You
Love is a treacherous snare. It lures you in with sweetness, intoxicates you, convinces you that surrender is safety. Like a mosquito drawn to blood, you crave it even as it drains you. Like honey to a bear, it promises comfort while hollowing you out. And when you're weakest, it strikes with venom sharp enough to kill. Love has tried to claim me too, fixing its gaze on me like a lone star against a midnight sky. But I've learned its patterns. I know its games. I will not be ensnared again. Love may feast on the naive, on the hopeful, on those who believe it cannot harm them. I am not one of them. I am an oleander, beautiful and deadly, guarding my heart with quiet precision. Come too close and you will taste the poison of my warning. I will protect myself, even if love calls it cruelty. ☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆ Second Book In 'To Love A Godly Man ' series.
