Jemimah Obalola thought adulthood would be simple.
Graduate. Get a good job. Help her family. Build the life she'd always imagined.
Instead, she finds herself drowning in debt, surviving one day at a time, and pretending she's okay while her world quietly falls apart.
Then she meets Pastor Tobi.
He has a reputation to protect.
She has a life she's desperate to rebuild.
His proposal sounds simple enough: a carefully planned arrangement that could solve both their problems.
No feelings.
No complications.
Just six months.
But some lies have a way of becoming real, and some people have a way of changing you long before you realise you're changing.
Still Becoming is a slow-burn contemporary Nigerian romance about faith, survival, healing, family, second chances, and discovering that sometimes becoming the person you're meant to be begins with everything falling apart.
