Publisher Description: Agyapomaa Agyemang is a woman on the cusp of success. With a thriving business in Ibadan and an adoring fianc by her side, she's living the fairytale she had always hoped for. Her charmed life seems certain and sure, until her fantasy is taken apart brick-by-brick by hatred and betrayal. Wounded, she returns to Kumasi to heal and seek solace in her family. What Pomaa finds instead is wahala: phantoms from her past, a madman chasing her through the streets, and the steadfast adulation of Akoto - a shoemaker whose affections leave her confounded. Suddenly, she's confronted with a new set of choices she never counted on. Resolving her circumstances might be easier if not for her best friend, Frema, and her constant reminders about 'Ashanti Aristocrat' codes and expectations. Pomaa must decide if she's bold enough to reciprocate Akoto's affection, or remain content to settle with what is familiar and acceptable. Can Pomaa still choose her prince, knowing that he's a pauper? Lover of Her Sole is a page-turning 'Cinderella story' that dares to question whether love alone has the power to cross the lines of class and color in our society. Fraught with electrifying action, intense romance and no small measure of heartbreak, it's a nouveau fairytale, served with a sprinkle of West African heat |
