Where
are the lover boys and girls? I found something for you all!!
Ankara Press is “bringing African romance fiction into the
bedrooms, offices and hearts of women the world over”.
It’s
fun, refreshing, and a relief to read about men and women playing at the game of
love the African way – the settings, the dialogues and the ‘toasting’ (meaning
dating or courting) all feel familiar. Best of all the drama is legit. Even the
sex scenes make sense.lol!
