Intentional About Mine : Niere's Story (The Nkala Siblings #1)

Niere Abara came to Chicago to unveil a secret his father kept hidden years before his time. He is the Shah of the Nkala and a very important man to many. What he didn’t come looking for was her. She wasn’t looking for him either, but as fate would have it, we’re all faced with the things we need rather than what we want from time to time. From the moment he encountered her, he knew what he wanted, and he wouldn’t stop until he had just that. His focus is off, and his mind is in tunnel vision because he didn’t come to the Windy City for love. Can Niere focus on the task at hand, or will the Shah allow his newfound interests to endanger the very family he has worked to protect?
Quen Dahi is next in line to run her family, and that’s all that matters to her. She was raised by her mother to be a leader, so nothing else has ever mattered. Her focus has always been on the throne, and nothing else has ever compared, but what happens when she’s introduced to him? What happens when something other than the throne catches her eye? Is she capable of juggling the two, or will she ultimately fail? Inside forces threaten everything she has worked for, so it’s up to her to secure her future. Does she have what it takes, or will she parish like all the others who came before her?
Love is in the air but accompanied by jealousy, hate, and disloyalty. Are you ready to encounter two families you never knew existed, or will you shy away when the going gets tough? Along this excursion, you’ll meet a few interesting characters, but never lose sight of the end goal. Also, please remember that loyalty is everything, and the Nkala is always lurking.
