BLURB/SYNOPSIS:"You can't be serious." Darcey Washington folded her arms, staring at Damien Sinclair like he had lost his mind. Across the sleek glass desk, Damien remained perfectly composed, his fingers steepled together. "I don't make jokes, Darcey. Not about business."She scoffed. "Business? Marriage isn't a business deal." His lips curved into something that almost resembled a smirk. "For people like me, it is." Darcey shook her head, gripping the blueprint sketches she had brought for his penthouse redesign,the job she had actually been hired for. "I came here to talk about interiors, not wedding vows." Damien leaned forward, his piercing gray eyes locking onto hers. "And yet, here we are."Her pulse pounded. "Why me?" He didn't blink. "Because I need a wife, and you need a lifeline." Darcey inhaled sharply. He knew. He knew about Ethan, about the medical bills stacking up, about the nights she stayed awake, terrified of losing her little brother. "How do you know about Ethan?" she whispered. Damien's voice was smooth, calculated. "I do my research. Your landlord was about to evict you. The hospital has started making calls. You don't have time, Darcey."Her stomach twisted. "And you think I'd just sell myself to you in exchange for a check?" Damien's gaze darkened. "No. I think you're smart enough to see a way out when it's offered to you." She clenched her jaw. This was insane. A marriage-one that wasn't real, one built on conditions, deadlines, and contracts. A man like Damien Sinclair didn't believe in love. He believed in control. "One year," he said. "No strings. No expectations. Just a contract that benefits us both." Darcey swallowed hard, her mind racing. This was dangerous. But so was doing nothing. Damien sat back, watching her with the patience of a man who already knew her answer. "What's it going to be, Darcey?" Her fingers trembled as she set the sketches down on the desk. "Where's the contract

When Amara Nwosu, a broken Nigerian photographer, lands in the vibrant heart of Lumeria, all she wants is silence- a place to heal, a city to disappear in, and a project to keep her hands busy while her heart stays numb. But Lumeria has its own plans. The city hums with color and chaos, music and memory, and somewhere between the rain-soaked markets and golden riverbanks, she crosses paths with Kairo Mbeki - an architect with a past as heavy as hers and eyes that see far too much. Their worlds collide under the weight of coincidence, and something unspoken sparks between them: a pull neither of them wants to name, a connection that feels both familiar and forbidden. As Amara's camera begins to capture the soul of Lumeria, Kairo becomes the part of it she cannot frame - the one thing she can't walk away from. But love in Lumeria isn't simple. Between family expectations, personal scars, and the ghosts of everything they've lost, both must decide whether healing means holding on... or finally letting go. In a story of second chances, cultural beauty, and quiet resilience, Call Me by Your Name reminds us that sometimes, love doesn't ask for grand gestures - it just asks to be seen.

Gabriella POV "Mommy is right please." My twin promised Abrla. "Can Riella don't respond!" She shrugged at Mommy's cry to her. "You! You did nothing but go on a walk and go with your friends!" "Hopefully, I wish Abriella just came out of my womb. We have no problem now!" "Mommy please don't say that it's right for our birthday tomorrow please even now let's be okay." I cried looking at my twins so well, I was grateful that he was my twin. "That will never happen Riella as long as that girl is here." "Mommy I'm sorry it's not true that it's just that ---" I didn't finish what I was saying when I received a strong slap. He looked at me badly. "It's frustrating to hear your lies Gabriella." "I'm sorry I didn't do anything." She cried when Mommy left but I looked at her and kissed her on the forehead. "It'll be okay to Riella no, I'm fine." "Ate-- shshs I'm okay, everything is gonna be okay." I continued. He hugged me but he kept crying. I smiled in the mirror. I'm really nice. It was our day when I was my twin. "Hmn is really nice to my son oh." "Mommy, I know that." "Look mommy! My twin is so good oh." She promised but I ignored her. "I'll take care of the guests first Riella, gurl make you look good!" "Yes!" "All right, I'll go first." The makeup ended with them and we were smiling as we went down and as usual and no-one-grande was a very sweet guest here. Riella smiled at me! "Let's just enjoy it." "Haha yes na Riella." "This is Riella my son and this is the wisest! Is he still good right?" Suddenly I was looking at it what he meant but what else could I expect that he would not introduce me as a child. "Babe?" A familiar one I heard was that I smiled at her. Thanks for being here he came here and my boyfriend is here. But what I thought was that it was a hug. "Babe H-Uppy Birthday!" I thought I was the one who embraced my twin, Babe? Did he call Apriella a babe? WTF!
