For years, I felt disconnected from my body.
Growing up in Nigeria, like many women, I was taught to suppress my desires. We were raised to be “good girls”—to be silent about our wants, to shrink ourselves, to avoid any expression of sexuality. It wasn’t just a cultural expectation; it was an unspoken rule that desire was dangerous, something to be hidden, ignored, or feared. We were never taught that our sensuality was a part of us that deserved exploration and understanding.
But the truth is, no matter how much you try to suppress something so deeply ingrained in who you are, it doesn’t disappear—it waits. It lingers beneath the surface, whispering, there’s more to feel, more to experience, more to be.
The Moment Everything Changed
I remember the first time I allowed myself to feel again. It wasn’t through a conversation, a relationship, or even a personal awakening—it was through a book.
Not just any books, but spicy books—the kind that didn’t just talk about sex but about women like me owning their pleasure, exploring their desires, and permitting themselves to feel.
And something inside me shifted.
I imagined myself in those stories. I placed myself in the skin of women who embraced their bodies, who let go of guilt and leaned into passion. Slowly, I realized something powerful: I was allowed to feel.
That journey—the journey of reclaiming my pleasure, my body, and my voice—is what inspired my new book, If These Eyes Could Talk.
Why I Wrote If These Eyes Could Talk
Women deserve stories that ignite our imagination and awaken our senses. We deserve narratives that make us feel seen, that help us step into our power, and that let us explore our sensuality without guilt.
If These Eyes Could Talk is a collection of short stories that do just that. It’s not just about sex—it’s about passion, self-discovery, and the unspoken emotions that come with desire. It’s about women like you and me who are learning to embrace what we’ve been told to suppress for too long.
