Simisola wanted a Yoruba demon.
She got one - and he left a scar deeper than heartbreak.
Doyinsola only wanted peace.
She found a stranger in Love Garden... and left behind more than just a paper.
Now, between late-night gist in Moremi hostel, missed calls, and quiet stares under almond trees, two best friends find themselves tangled in love, memory, and mystery.
Because in Lagos, love doesn't come easy - but when it does, it changes everything.

The family next door
Moving to Abuja was supposed to be simple - just school stress, nosy sisters, and neighborhood gist. But for Zainab Ibrahim, life across the street from the Galadimas changes everything. From her very first crush on Ahmad - older, focused, and far out of reach - to years later when love, heartbreak, and betrayal follow her into adulthood, Zainab learns that nothing in life is ever simple. There will be secrets that shake families. Friendships that turn into lifelines. A slow-burn love story that takes years to finally ignite. And a marriage that will test not only her heart, but her faith, her strength, and the very meaning of loyalty. From ice cream runs in secondary school to the bittersweet drama of university days, from wedding halls glittering with promises to nights where trust shatters in silence - Zainab's journey is one of faith, love, loss, and finding her voice in a world that wants to silence her. The Family Next Door is an Arewa romance filled with gist, heartbreaks, slow-burn tension, and the kind of love that will leave you smiling, crying, and whispering "subhanallah" at 2 AM.
Identically Loved
Loving two brothers was never part of her plan. One was her best friend-her anchor, her constant, the boy who knew her inside out. The other was his twin brother-her boyfriend, her heartbeat, the one who made her believe in soulmates. To the outside world, it was simple: she spent all her time with him, laughed with him, leaned into his shoulder like home. But the world had it wrong. They mistook closeness for passion, friendship for romance. They didn't see the difference between the way she looked at him-with warmth-and the way she looked at his twin-with fire. They didn't know that when her phone lit up, her heart skipped only for one name. They didn't understand that love could be quiet and loud at the same time, and that what she shared with each brother was made of completely different threads. But when the brothers weren't there to speak for themselves, when questions and whispers started to twist the truth, how could anyone believe that her heart truly belonged to the one they didn't expect? ---Complete

NASEEB
Hafsa, a breathtakingly beautiful woman in her mid-twenties, has lived her life trapped by the invisible chains of a deeply traditional Hausa-Fulani society.

Her beauty draws countless admirers, yet the moment her past is revealed, they scatter like whispers in the wind. Her family urges her to remarry, pushing her to choose from suitors who see only her outward allure. But Hafsa isn't ready to settle again-not for convenience, not for approval. She craves something far more precious: healing, peace, and the chance to rebuild her shattered self. Amidst the relentless scrutiny, Ibrahim enters her life-a man who sees her beyond the labels. Quiet, strong, and unyielding, he becomes her anchor in the storm. Ibrahim watches over her, shields her from the cruelty of the world, and gently mends the wounds she's too afraid to show. Against all odds, he fights to be with her, defying a society that deems their love impossible. In a world where the scars of divorce threaten to define her, Hafsa must decide: will she let the stigma shatter her dreams, or will she take Ibrahim's hand and rewrite her story on her own terms? A moving tale of resilience, self-discovery, and an all-consuming love that rises above the noise of judgment and tradition. This is Hafsa's journey-a battle to reclaim her life and prove that even in a world of broken expectations, love can conquer all.Complete
