When the Light Turned Red: A Novel

When he was fifteen years old, Sola Adesesan made a fatal error that splintered not just his family-driving a wedge between his brother, father and himself-it caused a schism within his own soul. Despite external markers of success; a thriving start-up, a charming personality, and a solid group of friends, including his closest ally, Derin, he has struggled with an unnameable restlessness. Twenty-four-year-old Rebecca Arinze is a smart, ambitious fashion influencer and an up-and-coming manager in a telco, with a clear vision for her life and a mother who's given her everything. But she grapples with bouts of insecurity and a nagging sense of incompleteness-borne from her father's abandonment and untimely death. When she runs into Sola, she mistakes it for a chance encounter, little does she realise that it's anything but. As secrets rise to the surface, they must confront the past and decide what comes next. >Themes to expect Faith & Family, Clean Romance (Closed-Door, No Profanity), Second Chances, Friends-to-Lovers, Slow-Burn Romance, Positive Friendships, Dual Protagonists, Interwoven Love Stories, Secrets & Hidden Past, Split Timelines
