At the heart of it all is Fatima Suleiman, the youngest daughter. Fearless, kind, and strikingly beautiful, she is both the family's jewel and its most vulnerable target. Loved fiercely by her siblings yet despised by her stepmother and stepsister, Fatima must navigate a world where every smile hides a scheme, and every bond is tested by ambition.

As her sister's grand wedding approaches, the mansion becomes a stage for celebration - and for betrayal. In a family where loyalty is everything and envy lurks in the shadows, Fatima must find the strength to shine through the chains that seek to bind her.

Between Sin and Ruin by Lovecrafttragics

I was raised to obey. Polished. Perfect. Promised. When my father ordered me to marry the heir to one of the Dominion's ruling families, I understood exactly what it meant. Power traded for peace, my freedom bartered for his empire. My new husband wasn't the monster I expected. He was patient, careful, and treated me with nothing but respect. It didn't take long for me to fall in love. I thought it was mutual. Then the truth unraveled, and I learned another woman still whispered his name in the dark. But I was never meant to be a quiet tragedy. When the truth broke me, I didn't stay broken. I made sure I was the one they whispered about next.

But when her father loses everything, the world she once knew shatters-and so does her safety. Once shielded by wealth, Salma is thrust into a reality where expectations weigh heavier than gold. Her dreams of education and freedom are suddenly a luxury she can no longer afford. As her family scrambles to maintain honor and tradition, Salma meets Khalil-a quiet, grounded soul from a humbler background who sees the fire beneath her polished surface. Their connection is forbidden, unlikely-and yet undeniable. But as love blooms, so do the consequences. Whispers become threats. Her family's pride is on the line. And Salma must choose: obey the rules of the world she was born into, or fight for the life-and love-she truly desires. Daughter of the North is a sweeping tale of lost fortune, forbidden love, and one young woman's fight to define herself in a society quick to define her first.

PARALLEL HEARTS by 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."

Fatima Zarah Modibbo moves to a quiet neighborhood in Kano after a personal tragedy forces her to leave Lagos behind. Reserved but warm-hearted, she hopes to focus on healing, faith, and her law job until her peaceful world is disrupted by the cries of a little girl and the heartbreaking mysterious man next door.

Scarred by love and duty, Idris has no time for distractions especially not for the new neighbor who keeps showing up. But proximity sparks something deeper. As the walls between them thin, both Zarah and Idris must confront their pasts, their faith, and what it truly means to be home-together. From the bustling streets of Kano, to unexpected turns in Abuja, and a reunion in Lagos, this is a story of second chances, silent longing, parenting, and the love that blooms quietly when you least expect it.

Her Qadr by ameenasidii

She was never meant to be his. But destiny doesn't ask for permission. Meet Fatima Zahra, 22 years old. A radiant soul-loving, beautiful, full of life. An extrovert with a warm heart, she wears joy like a second skin. But behind her laughter lies a quiet strength and a deep sense of responsibility. Then there's Umar-33, calm and composed. Gentle by nature, yet strikingly handsome in a way that makes silence feel louder around him. An introvert, thoughtful and kind, carrying the weight of loss with quiet grace. Umar was her cousin. Her brother-in-law. Her sister Haneefa's husband. That was-until tragedy took Haneefa away, leaving behind their two-month-old twins, Anam and Anim-and a void too large to fill. When Fatima is forced into marrying Umar to help raise her sister's children, her world begins to unravel. The man she once looked up to like an older brother becomes her husband. And with that, everything changes. She didn't choose this life. But maybe... fate did. How do you love someone you were never meant to love? How do you find peace when guilt holds your heart hostage? And what if... love dares to grow where pain once lived? In a story where duty blurs with destiny, and heartbreak dances with hope, Fatima must navigate grief, forbidden emotions, and the quiet pull of Qadr-the divine will she never saw coming. Fatima never dreamed of a life like this. But sometimes, the hardest stories... are the ones written by destiny. And sometimes, the person you're not supposed to love -is the only one who can make your broken heart beat again. Now the questions remain... Can you choose love when it feels like betrayal? Can your heart bloom in the shadow of another woman's memory-especially when that woman was your sister? Is this sacrifice? Or is it fate-disguised as pain? Will she ever truly love him? Will he ever see her as his wife, not just the mother of his children? Well.. There's only one way to find out.

The Buried Truth by ruzy78s

They were born into wealth, charm, and the kind of success people envy - but behind every smile lies a secret someone would kill to protect. 💍 Murad & Zoya - He's cold, composed, and impossible to read. She's bold, defiant, and the only one who dares to challenge him. They're enemies bound by family and circumstance - until hate turns into something far more dangerous. 🌞 Maha & Faris - She's a spoiled, magnetic socialite who always gets what she wants. He's her brother's grumpy best friend, who swore she'd never be one of them. But rules mean nothing when attraction becomes chaos. 🚙 Aaris & Miara - The charming corporate heir and the fiercely ambitious middle-class woman who marries him in a contract deal. It was supposed to be business - not the kind of love that ruins careers. 🔥 Rayan & Aylin - A calculated arrangement between two people who call it a marriage of convenience. But convenience has a way of turning intimate when feelings refuse to stay out of it. 🕶 Ayaan & Laiba - Two souls drawn together by obsession and secrecy. Their connection is intoxicating, reckless, and powerful enough to destroy them both. They live in glass towers, run companies, and play by their own rules - but when one of them is found dead, the walls begin to crack. Lies surface. Loyalties collapse. And the truth they buried threatens to burn everything down. Buried Truth is a gripping modern romance-mystery about love, betrayal, and the cost of keeping secrets - because in this world, nothing stays buried forever.

The family next door by ZainabbAliyu

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.
