A Contemporary Fiction Novel
Some connections are impossible to explain-quiet, electric, and undeniable.
Set against the noise of fame and the stillness of private moments, The Distance That Defines Us follows two people drawn together by chance and kept apart by choice.
It's a story about longing, trust, and the delicate space between wanting someone and daring to reach for them.

WHERE WE BELONG
*the book cover might be subject for changes and might be a temporary place holder* Where We Belong tells a grounded and emotional story centered on Derrick Blake, a loner who keeps both his distance from others and his strange powers a secret. He never wanted to step into the role of a hero, until the day he meets Raven, a girl whose quiet traumatic past unknowingly set him down that very path. As Derrick grows closer to Raven, he uncovers disturbing truths: her pain isn't isolated but there are others who've suffered similar trauma, their voices silenced. Determined to seek justice for the victims, Derrick embarks on a journey he never asked for, one that forces him to confront not only the darkness outside but around him. Alongside his brother Alex, Derrick must stay ahead of Pandora, a secretive organization that hunts people like them. Their fight becomes even more complicated when they cross paths with another gifted individual someone who shares their desire to take Pandora down, and who ends up showing them their world might be bigger than they thought. At its heart, Where We Belong is a story about trust, healing, finding connection and self discovery in a world determined to tear it away. It's as much about uncovering conspiracies as it is about discovering where and with whom you truly belong.
The unfinished story of us : A memoir of Love,Loss and Healing.
The Unfinished Story of Us: A Memoir of Love, Loss, and Healing is a deeply moving reflection on a love that was never meant to end-but was taken too soon. It tells the story of a bond that continues beyond absence, echoing through memories, prayers, and the quiet moments where grief speaks the loudest. This is more than a story about loss-it's a story about what comes after. It explores the reality of carrying someone with you even when they're no longer physically here, learning how to live with the weight of love that didn't get the chance to finish its story. It's about finding meaning in the pain, purpose in the process, and strength in the moments that try to break you. Within these pages is the truth that some stories don't end when we lose someone-they transform. They live on in who we become, in the lessons we carry, and in the love we continue to give to the world because of them. Through raw vulnerability and spiritual reflection, this memoir reveals how even in the deepest heartbreak, God can shape something meaningful. That brokenness is not the end-it's the beginning of becoming. It's a reminder that while some chapters close too soon, love never truly stops writing. It continues in every step forward, every quiet prayer, and every breath taken in their memory.
The Distance We Can't Cross
In a city that never pauses, two souls move within the same rhythm yet remain divided by unseen lines.

The Distance We Couldn't Cross is a story of unspoken feelings, fragile connections, and the spaces between hearts that no ambition, or courage that seems able to close.
The Almost of Us
The Almost of Us is a raw and tender exploration of what it means to love someone you can never have. Told in twenty intimate chapters, it traces the journey of falling for a person who will never even know your name-a celebrity, a distant figure, someone untouchable.Concluida

Ashes of a Silent Bride
Du'a was born from a love hidden in shadows-a secret marriage between Alhaji Ahmad Sanusi and Firdausi, an Igala beauty whose life was cut short in a tragic accident when Du'a was barely two years old. With no other choice, Alhaji Ahmad brought his daughter into the grand household of his first wife, Ramatu, and his formidable mother, Hajiya Turai, whom everyone called Kaka. But instead of a home, Du'a found herself trapped in a cage of cruelty. Ramatu and Kaka despised her very existence, and her half-sister Bilkisu, jealous of Du'a's striking beauty, bullied her at every turn. Her father, torn between duty and weakness, could not shield her from their wrath. At fourteen, Du'a's fate took an even darker turn when Kaka reconnected with her childhood friend-Hajiya Aisha, the revered Queen Mother of the Kano Emirate. The Queen Mother, doting on her twin grandsons Ashraf and Arnaf, sought a wife for Arnaf, the troubled younger twin burdened with insomnia and mental affliction. Kaka, seizing the chance to rid herself of the girl she considered a burden, offered Du'a without hesitation. Thrust into marriage far too young, Du'a found herself in the palace, bewildered and childlike, struggling to understand a husband who was distant, cold, and broken. In her innocence, she often mistook his twin, the warm and playful Ashraf, for the man she had been forced to marry. Caught between palace intrigue, her husband's silent torment, and the dangerous stirrings of forbidden affection, Du'a must navigate a path where every step could either break her spirit-or awaken her destiny.Concluida
