STRAIGHTENED AFFECTION

The link on my bio to grab the complete book!

Sabira Idris Turaki never imagined that after everything she and her husband endured, the years of struggle, pride, misunderstandings, and silent sacrifices, she would lose him just when love finally began to feel steady.
It was love. But it came too late.
Umar Faruq Bello's death was ruled an unfortunate encounter. A sealed report. A carefully arranged narrative crafted by those who understand that power protects power.
Grief has barely settled when two men enter her life.
Abubakar Sadiq Bello is the twin who was sent away as a boy for refusing to bend to Dada's authority. The son who learned early that defiance comes with exile. The brother who built himself into something formidable, strategic, and untouchable. If Faruq was warmth, Sadiq is fire. If Faruq was softness, Sadiq is the rock. Sadiq wants revenge for the only brother who stood by him when no one else did.
Then there is Zaid. A man who wants the prize he has yet to win. Faruq's death did not satisfy him. It was far from over.
A marriage of convenience brings Sabira together with Sadiq. What begins as strategy slowly becomes something far more dangerous. Proximity awakens emotions neither of them expected.
Their journey unfolds in stages. Attraction, attachment, trust, love, worship. A return to faith. A rediscovery of themselves.
Sadiq is morally grey. Calculated. A man who understands power and is not afraid to use it. Revenge tempts him. Control comforts him. Softness does not come naturally.
Sabira, no longer the woman she once was, refuses to be conquered. She demands respect, sincerity, and growth.
Between vengeance and vulnerability, political silence and family loyalty, dominance and surrender, they begin to change.
Together, they learn how to lead and raise their family with intention, care, and love.
