    37-year-old Genevieve Ukaji has never been the one to play outside the rules but one mistake of a one night stand with a younger man puts her on the rails and consequences come faster than she'd ever expected.
          
                                     * * *
        
        ☆ FEATURED ON @WattpadStars reading list (stars did NaNo), @Romance (Romance spotlight: Featured stories), @AmbassadorsNG reading list, @Wattpad reading lists (escape through stories) (strong female leads), @WattpadExplorer reading lists (#CelebrateBlackStories), (Black girl magic) (April, Editor's pick) and @ContemporaryLit reading lists (Hot picks) (contemporary romance) (celebrate women's history month)☆
        
        
        Successful banker, Genevieve Ukaji had never made a plan to stay single till the age of 37 but it so happens that's her life story. 
        
        Her mother can't seem to stop reminding her that she's turning forty soon and in need of a life partner. The people at work, also, can't seem to stop making her the topic of gossip and now, she just had to wake up in a stranger's bed. 
        
        Regardless, Gene is ready to put it all behind her. Well, that is until the stranger walks into her home, LITERALLY, and she realises the BIG age difference between them.
        
        Genevieve is too ashamed and she wants nothing more to do with him but it doesn't seem the same for the cute stranger who keeps pushing her buttons in the darnest ways.
        
        That is not all, she finds out a little life is growing inside her. It would seem the universe was toiling with her but is the little glimmer of hope really happiness knocking on her door or a shadow of it?  
        
        What is she to do when the society begins to make her the topic of gossip and her family can't seem to wipe the disappointment off their faces?
        
        Keep reading to find out.
