I used to think love was enough.
Then I met Yusuf.
What began as a simple conversation became a friendship, and before I knew it, he had become a part of my everyday life. He was kind, patient, and carried scars from a past he was still trying to heal from. Somehow, in helping each other heal, we found something neither of us expected.
Love.
We dreamed. We planned. We prayed.
But sometimes the greatest heartbreak doesn't come from betrayal or a lack of love.
Sometimes it comes from circumstances beyond your control.
Written, But Not Ours is a deeply emotional story of love, faith, destiny, loss, and the painful reality that two people can love each other with all their hearts and still not be meant to stay together.
Some stories are written.
Just not ours.

WHERE FATE LEADS
🌙 Blurb .. WHERE FATE LEADS - WHERE FATE LEADS Love is not proven by how deeply you feel, but by what you're willing to walk away from. Jaiyana Maheer Adebayo believes love should feel easy, steady, and real. With Suraj, it does. He is present, thoughtful, and everything her heart didn't know it was looking for. Being with him feels natural, like choosing happiness without having to explain it. But knowing something feels right does not always mean it is right. As Jaiyana builds a life shaped by affection, routines, and quiet promises, her closest friend, Mutmainnah, remains by her side, offering laughter, honesty, and a mirror she cannot avoid. Through late-night talks, small doubts, and unspoken questions, Jaiyana begins to face the tension between comfort and conviction. Set against family, faith, and the ordinary moments that shape a woman's life, In the Shade of Qadr is an intimate Islamic romance about love, restraint, and choosing alignment over attachment. Because sometimes, the hardest test of the heart is not how much it can hold but what it has the courage to release.
TEARS IN MY METAL CUP
My name is Aisha Aliyu . But in boarding school, I answered to "JSS1!". 🥲❤️🔥🥲 The day I arrived at Federal Government Girls' College, I was eleven years old with a metal cup my mom gave me, and a heart full of fear. By nightfall, Senior Blessing AKA Savage had confiscated my provisions, and House Mistress had taught me that "Yes, Senior" was the only prayer that worked. That metal cup became my witness. It held my Lipton with rain water kept on the sun in the mornings when the harmattan was brutal. It held garri with sugar or salt when hunger knocked at 2am. And on the nights I couldn't be strong, it held my tears. Because in Dorm 4, you learn to cry quietly. No evidence, abeg. JSS1 to SS3 is a journey nobody prepares you for. From scrubbing seniors' buckets to becoming the senior everyone feared. From homesick letters to sneaking out after lights out. They said boarding school would make me a woman. What they didn't say was that I'd have to break first. Shatter. Then gather the pieces myself. I'm still standing. My cup is dented, but it doesn't leak. This is my story. My bunk. My scars. If you've ever hidden tears in a metal cup, then you already know. Are you ready to walk the halls of Dorm 4, join me on this journey of survival and reclaim your own story ... Read ..❤️🔥❤️🔥❤️🔥 Tears in My Metal Cup. The real boarding school story. Updates every Sunday by 8pm WAT and 9pm every monWATComplete

Skript! #wattys2018
Sometimes it isn't possible to include every single idea I have in my books. Sometimes I have to cut out hilarious or awesome scenes because they don't really fit, or they are too slow for the pace of the book. So, Skript will include random moments from ALL of my characters! It could be before or after or during when the book is taking place. Sometimes it could be a re imagining of a scene I have already written! They are just for fun, and will contain only that specific scene, and not a complete story line. Much like Ask SAJMRA, I will take submissions for Skript ideas! I'm excited for this :) Stay awesome <3Complete
