If You Must hide - Paperback

Nadia is intimately familiar with pain.

She has learned how to minimise it, manage it, explain it away-and keep moving forward. Loving others has always meant asking for little and giving much.

But after a traumatic night lands her in the hospital with an injured ankle, the careful balance she's maintained begins to unravel. Forced into stillness, Nadia starts confronting questions she has avoided for years-about devotion, self-sacrifice, and the quiet ways love can become heavy.

What follows is overwhelming. And tender. And strange. And deeply transformative.

If You Must Hide is a slow-burn contemporary romance about love as a place-where being fully seen feels safer than disappearing, where healing is messy, and where being wanted can feel liberating rather than demanding. Set against a richly familiar modern Nigerian backdrop, it is a story about choosing softness without losing yourself.
