GUESS WHO’S BACK:
Tomilola Coco Adeyemo!
COVER REVEAL
Nicole Oyetunji is tired of surviving a life that no longer feels like her own. Married for ten years to a man who resents her success and with a longing for motherhood that remains unanswered, she returns to Osogbo hoping that faith, ritual, and ancestral intervention might repair what love has slowly broken.
But Osogbo has other plans. Against the backdrop of the Osun Osogbo festival, Nicole meets Adelaja “Laja” Kolapo, a powerful businessman weighed down by grief, prophecy, and a past he has never fully confronted. Their connection is immediate and unsettling, stirring desires Nicole has long buried and raising questions she is no longer sure she wants answered. As divinations are told and destinies begin to collide, Nicole must reckon with the truth of her marriage, the cost of self-denial, and the possibility that love can be both terrifying and freeing.
EFUN’S JAZZ is coming to stores on 11th August 2026

COVER REVEAL
Lights. Camera. Chaos. Christmas.
When Anu Fashoranti—brilliant but jaded commissioning editor—is exiled to Ibadan to salvage her network’s first original Christmas film, the last thing she expects is to collide with her past… or fall into bed with it. Enter Tai Smith: former child star, scandal-scarred comeback kid, and the new leading man she must keep on set and out of her heart.
But in Nollywood, drama doesn’t stay on screen. Between family secrets, high-stakes production battles, and a love story she swore she’d never write for herself, Anu is about to learn that Christmas in Nigeria comes wrapped in more than glitter and tinsel.
Sexy, sharp, and sparkling with Nollywood flair, A Nollywood Christmas is a festive romance about ambition, redemption, and the messy magic of second chances.

My family members didn’t find out about my last isese related article so, I of course, took that as a sign to write another one. 🤷🏾♀️ PS: MIGHTY THANKS on the engagement on my post on being Osun’s child. The celestial church community is incredibly supportive goodness. Thank you!

There, she meets a handsome billionaire, Laja whom she feels an instant connection to and whose presence in her life begs her to question everything about her life.

My 19th book of the year is A Very Gidi Christmas by @tomilolacoco
From the very first sentence, you will know that the author of this book didn’t come to play. I love books that draw me in right from the opening line and AVGC passed the vibe check.
Biodun and Kunle have a history together, but it was a bitter one which led to resentment. However, after twelve years, they would have to face the truth of what happened between them.
Biodun, an impoverished OAP who has been scraping by with her meager salary would face an even worse scandal that would change the trajectory of her life.
This book is romance in every sense of it. I love the drama, the intensity of the romance, the conflict and even the characters. I’ll give it a 10/10 across every board that exists universally.
Tomilola Coco Adeyemo @tomilolacoco is the author of bestselling romance novels. Her debut, A Very Gidi Christmas was published in 2024, and in November 2025, she released the second novel, A Nollywood Christmas.
