Hi readers,
#TwoWeeksToGo #14 #July
As I count down to the release of my upcoming romance novel, I'll be sharing chapters of the book every other week.
Here's the fourth chapter, and I hope you enjoy it:
Chapter Four: Four New Movies
Chiny was too intoxicated to keep her eyes on the road and admire the city of Nice at night. She had never been this drunk in her life, but she felt good. She caressed the leather interior of the Aston Martin Vanquish, and smiled within, with her eyes shut tight; she didn’t want the moment to pass.
“Are you okay?” David asked, glancing at her from the driver’s seat.

Short Story: Can They Hear Me?
Hello all,
I don’t think I’ve ever cried as hard as I did after reading of the tragic passing of little Daniel (son of D’Banj and his wife). It was the saddest story ever. I could only imagine how his parents were (are still) feeling, if I, with no connection or ties to their family, felt that bad.
The day after I saw the news, I wrote a story, and as I wrote it, I cried. Anytime I read it I cry. One year later, I still sob, but a few weeks ago, I read it for the first time without crying, so I believed it was time to share it.
It’s written from the point of view of baby Daniel. It’s not written to bring more pain to his family, but to bring them peace, and let his memory live on.
So here goes: Can They Hear Me?

Book Preview: Like Never Before (Chapter Three)
Hi readers,
#OneMonthToGo #14th
As I count down to the release of my upcoming romance novel, I’ll be sharing chapters of the book every other week.
Here’s the third chapter, and I hope you enjoy it:
Chapter Three: Three shots later
Chiny got to the club around 11:30 p.m. looking like something out of a movie. She wore a short red dress with black heels, and let her long braids down. Her make-up was nicely done, and she used silver-coloured accessories to compliment her dressing, which matched the chain of her purse that she hung over her shoulder. She had a sexy, but casual look, and she loved it.

Book Preview: Like Never Before (Chapter Two)
Hi readers,
As I count down to the release of my upcoming romance novel, I'll be sharing chapters of the book every other week.
Here's the second chapter, and I hope you enjoy it:
Chapter Two: Two to tango
Chiny didn’t sleep all through the flight. She alternated her time between looking out of the window and watching movies, and when the pilot announced that they were about to land, she regretted not having used the time to learn some French. The only word she knew was ‘bonjour,’ and she was glad that they were landing in the morning, so she could get to use it.

Book Preview: Like Never Before (Chapter One)
Hi readers,
As I count down to the release of my upcoming romance novel, I'll be sharing chapters of the book every other week.
Here's the first chapter, and I hope you enjoy it:
Chapter One: One Ticket Away
Every day for the whole month was like a Friday to Chiny until the Friday she had been waiting for finally arrived. Chiny was an automobile sales executive in a Nigerian company, a job she got not because she was the most qualified, but because she had simply been lucky. Getting into the job, she had no idea what she would be doing, however, in the last three years, she had learnt the business in and out, and was able to sell any car to anyone.

New Book Cover: Like Never Before
Hi readers,#Sunday #HolyDay #RestDay
While you all were sleeping, I was on night shift watching my baby, who didn’t want to sleep. Afterwards I recreated the cover for my upcoming romance book “Like Never Before.” (See former cover below).
If you are wondering why I’ve now changed two of my covers, it’s because I used a template from Canva. And you know the whole world uses Canva, so you won't be the only one with the template and your cover won't be unique.
For “Like Never Before,” I wanted the sea on the cover, and not just any sea, I wanted the Mediterranean Sea. The template I saw on Canva looked lovely so I used it immediately, but just a few days ago I began to wonder what sea it was.I didn’t like the fact that I didn’t know what it was, so I went on google and searched for a new image, then I came across an amazing picture of the sunset on the Mediterranean Sea. And that’s exactly how the novel ends, on the Mediterranean Sea.
I reached out to the owner of the picture and asked to use it in exchange for credit on my acknowledgment page, and I was happy when she agreed. So there you go, a book cover like never before 😁.
The book is due for release on July 14th, same day as the French National Day, and I can’t wait to share it.
I'll also be sharing the first few chapters of the book in the coming weeks.
Literarily Yours,
CMO
