No time for tears Niyi Odunsi

It's 1985 and Anne has just met John, her first love. Certain that this was love eternal, they proceeded to the University of Lagos, Nigeria where it soon becomes obvious that there is more to John than Anne would want to believe. New complications arise when Anne decides to join a group of "fanatics" on Campus. Now she must give one up for the other. Her love for John or her new found peace and joy. And then Anne meets Folu Smith, brought up by a widowed, rich, sophisticated and workaholic mother. Anne idolizes Folu and would give anything to be like her. Folu, an ex-beauty Queen turned religious "nut" has a past she would rather forget. But sometimes the past refuses to stay buried and all that one holds dear soon become threatened. Set between 1973 and 1986 in Ibadan, South West Nigeria, Lagos and London, England, this is a tale of love, lust, passion and betrayal. This is a tale of choices and unimaginable repercussions!
