About Me 🤍

I write stories that linger.
The kind that ache softly in your chest long after you close the app.

I'm drawn to emotional realism, slow-burn love, trauma, healing, faith, and the quiet things the body remembers even when the mind tries to forget. My characters are flawed, tender, and painfully human-often standing at the intersection of survival and becoming.

My current work, What the Body Remembers, is a deeply personal, Nigerian-coded story about memory, consent, friendship, obsession that feels like safety, and learning how to live in a body that has known pain. It's not just a romance-it's a reckoning.

Expect:

Slow burn 🔥

Best friends to something more

Morally grey tenderness

Trauma handled with care

Faith, healing, and quiet resilience

If you love stories that feel soft but devastating, gentle but honest, you're in the right place.

Thank you for reading. Thank you for staying.
