How does one impress Grace?
This is a question Folabi Dawson asked for several months.
He could afford diamonds.
He could buy her the latest wherever in the world.
He could do just anything, because with money, there was never going to be an issue.
Meet Grace Akinsola, but popularly known as Grace Akins.
All her life, she made her money, obsessed with her passion and nothing else. But a few years back, she learned the hard way that the few men she had met were only attracted to her body and intimidated by her success.
Folabi Dawnson, who had everything at the tip of his fingers, couldn't have Grace. That was the first time his money couldn't solve his problem.
Grace Akins, was his problem.

Hard Man
Although no one knew it, Desire was struggling. It was highly unbelievable because as a top worker in one of Lagos' most exclusive and influential night clubs, she was making thousands every night. All her other friends were living large, and building houses, so why couldn't she? Her father had died five years ago, leaving them drowning in a sea of debt. Her mother was sick, and couldn't do anything, so from an early age Desire had had to wear the mantle of responsibility. A twenty six million naira debt was on her neck, and for five years, Desire had consistently been paying it off; while simultaneously keeping a roof over her mother's head, and saving up money for school. Salvation came at last; but in form of the hardest, most handsome man she had ever laid eyes upon? General Babalola Halal. He was offering five million Naira for a whole month of exclusive sex. Pure, undiluted gratification. It was her job, and this offer was coming on a platter of gold. Even more tempting was the fact that it was the exact amount needed to be free of her father's debt. Completely. But he was hard, and demanding, and excruciatingly virile. Accepting this posed a risk far greater than millions. The stark reality of losing everything she stood for, and gaining nothing in return because a man like this never gave anything of himself. He was rich, five million Naira meant nothing to him. But she knew what she was getting into, she knew how addictive his touch was, and how hard it was to stay sane around him. Could she do this? Was losing her sanity a price she was willing to pay?Complete
