Too Good to Be Real by royalty__writes

She felt his warm palm on her wrist and at once she was facing him. Without warning, his lips engulfed hers, setting her on fire just like she did him. His lips were warm and soft and she revelled in it as she shut her eyes, her body instantly warming up to the kiss. She wrapped her arms around him, marvelling at how their bodies fit perfectly together. It felt so good, like her head was rotating. Nothing else mattered. Just the two of them. This was all she needed. Someone who accepted her for her. Her flaws, her beauty, herself, hook line and sinker. She withdrew reluctantly, angry she had to stop the kiss and also afraid someone had seen them. As she stared into his eager eyes, she knew she loved him but she couldn't help thinking she was doing the wrong thing. She loved him, but it wasn't fair to his girl. She could do anything, run, apologise, but she followed her heart. She drew him back and continued the kiss. A Nigerian themed story bound to leave you yearning for the next chapter.

$The Grey In Black And White {COMPLETED} by Dami_A_Johnson$

The teenage period is usually not always easy. You make mistakes, you learn from them. It's like a moulding phase towards adulthood, which tends to be harder than adults make it sound. Especially in this generation. Growing up in a society where having a psychological condition means you're a freak, abnormal or an attention seeker. Where gender inequality is still seen as normal and right. Where anything other than Heterosexuality means you're possessed or the spawn of the devil. Where showing your emotions as a guy means you're soft and weak, because toxic masculinity isn't seen as a problem. Also, having anything to do that's related to these "atrocities" means you're set for an even bigger social stigma. Being a teenager becomes harder than hard. Just a group of teenagers trying to find a place for themselves in midst of a backward society, realising that life can't be all black and white. Growing in an African home is hard but what's harder is being a Nigerian. O le gán. "It is better to be hated for what you are, than to be loved for what you're not." -André Gide

Saved by my nightmare (A Nigerian Story) by ameenarrh

You know how it feels when those you love are the key factors as to why you are scarred physically and emotionally?. You don't? Well, Maliya Jamil can't really say the same thing. Thrown into a school to be tortured with only her scars as company; it's only a matter of time before she starts to wish for someone to talk to...even if it's death. A failed suicide attempt sends her back to her former life, but this time she's barely recognisable to those who once knew her. Hatred, regret, betrayal, forgiveness, and of course what's it all without a bit of heart wrenching romance. When childhood friends become enemies, and when feelings, once platonic, become jumbled up in a mix of love and hatred, Maliya can help but take solace in an external feud. Betrayal rears its ugly head, and it's all back to square one. Friendships are mended, and some are irreparable. Feelings spark and others dim. Seven years and a medical degree later, the dynamics of relationships have changed. And Maliya finds herself at crossroads, stuck between two men who've hurt her in their own ways. One with whom she spent the most memorable days of her youth, her best friend and the other, the only man who'd been by her when everyone else had betrayed her. Faced with a choice she dreads making, what will she do? Take a look into Saved by my nightmare, and see what happens when a scarred, vengeful girl makes her return.

Cake Cafe by Khadija_Aminu

The meeting of two broken hearts can either be a like a bomb or like a long steady walk under the shade of a hundred trees. Hidaaya is a 24 year old teacher and although she has been through her fair share of wrong relationships and heartbreaks, a fun loving, bubbly young woman who walks through life, almost always with a smile. Someone said once, that humans can be museums, filled with history they can no longer touch." A history that resonates in their lives, breaking some, making others. Najib might have brushed that quote off three years ago but not now. This wasn't three years ago Najib, it was three years later Najib. The wounded, untrusting Najib. The one who'd seen the fine line between sanity and insanity, between life and death, between life as it was and life as it could be. In the center of Abuja, the F.C.T of Nigeria, two broken hearts stumble into each other's paths, oblivious to the fate that binds them and scared of the feelings that draw them together. A pair of brown eyes meet darker brown eyes, 5'11 meets 6'3, coffee meets cake. But what happens when the past remains a dark curtain around us, a part of us. Lurking around in the shadows, sometimes threatening to topple down the hope of a better future. What happens when we are very much still in the clutches of our own minds... And unable to break free?

This book however is a fictional but relatable story, the story is about four young girls who have been more of sisters than friends for so many years, in good times and bad times. Their friendship was what they have for each other but like many friendships it was tested. Was it that their love wasn't love after all or was their bond not strong enough?
