I'm delighted to share an exclusive preview of my upcoming novel.

The Move

“Afolabi, are you for real? You can’t be serious! Are you crazy or something?” Bolanle exclaimed, her frustration and disbelief evident in her voice.

“You mean you want to make a lady you met and wedded barely three years ago the main applicant? Are you out of your senses?”

Afolabi sighed as he paced back and forth in the small living room in Bariga, Lagos. At the same time, he kept glancing towards the gate to see if Yetunde had returned from where she had gone to grind the pepper she wanted to use to make stew.

“Sister mi,” as Afolabi usually called his older sister, “you need to calm down. It is not what you think. We have given this a deep thought, and it is logical that Yetunde is made the main applicant so I can be the dependant. This will give me a free hand to switch jobs rather than being restricted to the care job for the next five years.”

“Logical? Did I hear you say logical? Oh, you think it’s logical to hand over all control to Yetunde? Have you not heard the stories making waves abroad? Women change when they get to the Western world. They become unrecognisable!” Bolanle’s frank words were like daggers thrust through a speakerphone.

“Sister mi, listen to me,” said Afolabi, desperately trying hard to steady his voice. “Yetunde is not like that. We’ve been through a lot together. She is a born-again, fervent, and devoted Christian. I can vouch for her; nothing can ever change her.”

What happened next? Stay tuned for more from this gripping story.

Here is a clip from the upcoming novel!

Afolabi and Yetunde are a young Nigerian couple who move to the UK with hopes of a better life. Filled with excitement and dreams of new opportunities, they soon realise that life in a foreign land comes with an unexpected cultural paradigm.

Yetunde, the quiet and amiable devoted wife, begins to adapt to the freedom of life in the UK. She seeks more independence, and the pressures of their new environment start to create a distance between her and Afolabi. Her decisions, driven by hidden prevailing circumstances and the desire for control and freedom, have heart-breaking consequences for their family.

Afolabi, dazed by Yetunde's transformation, courageously attempts to keep the family intact. In his resilience in the face of daunting challenges, He suddenly finds himself in a country that feels cold and unwelcome.

As the story unfolds, "Glory Rose" explores the deep emotional struggles of both characters. The uncertainty of life unfolds as both characters explore the uncharted waters of a new world and come to terms with the reality that the glory of the Rose cannot be without thorns.

This novel is a powerful story about the fragility of love, the impact of cultural change, and the potential for redemption.

"Glory Rose: An Adventure of Shattered Vows and Renewed Passion" serves as a beacon of hope, reminding us all that even when love is tested to its limits, it can still find a way to heal and endure.

Watch out FOR THE FULL STORY!!!!!
