How will you feel when the person you trust breaks your trust?
How will you feel when the one who is supposed to love you most calls you a burden?
She felt all that.
She had sleepless nights.
She promised never to trust or love again.
Her heart turned into stone.
She built walls no one could break-
or so she thought.
How will you feel when you have dreams you cannot chase?
How will you feel when your whole life is dictated for you?
And like that, he lost someone so dear to him.
He promised never to love again.
His heart turned into stone.
He built walls no one could break-
or so he thought.
She is Aneesa Ahmad Abdullah (AAA), the fearless businesswoman everyone feared.
He is Arsalan Aliyu Abdulrahman (AAA), the CEO of the AAA Royal Group of Companies, Crown Prince of Kano State, Flight Lieutenant of the U.S. Army, and also the best military officer in Nigeria. No one dared to challenge him...
But she did.
What will happen when the two find themselves in an arranged marriage-or should I say, strangers forced to live under the same roof?
Follow me on this journey...
to either a happily ever after,
or a complete disaster filled with drama, secrets, betrayal, and broken hearts.

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."
His For A While
Noor Ma'aji never thought she'd see Yousuf Rafi again, let alone marry him. He was her first love, the man who broke her heart beyond repair. Eight years later, they've moved on, or at least tried to. She's making a name for herself as a reporter, and he's a powerful businessman with no time for the past. But when a family will forces them into a contract marriage, pretending to be a couple becomes part of the deal. They agree to play along, for now, and walk away when it's all over. Only it's not that simple. Not when old feelings begin to resurface. Not when the silence between them starts to speak louder than words. And not when heartbreak starts to look a lot like unfinished love. Because sometimes, love doesn't end. It waits.Complete
Love At First Sight
Just one look-and I knew he'd be the one to break all my walls. I was 26, never dated, always hesitant. My brothers kept me sheltered, and I let them. Then Abdulrazaq came along. Without saying a word, he awakened feelings I didn't know I had. He made me feel seen. Desired. Like a woman. I thought I was the luckiest girl alive-married to my first love, the man of my dreams. Sweet, patient, romantic... everything I'd read about in novels. But not all that glitters is gold. Marriage wasn't what she imagined. For Iqram, love became pain-physical, emotional, and psychological. Still, she loved him-too much, maybe. This is Iqram's story. A love that started like a dream... and turned into something far more cruel. -WinterBearzComplete
