1. LOVE CODE by Nike Adeyemi: Love Code is a book that reminds you that to have anything working well in your life, you need to discover the Love Code. The code is not a secret that is kept from people, it’s what we never notice because we are too concerned about ourselves and not the people around us. The author of the book, Nike Adeyemi said, “Most times, we react because of the things that people have done to us. But when we hand over our feelings and pains to God, He turns our pains to gains and gives us the capacity and grace to have a different attitude and to handle situations different from the ordinary man.” The book is not just for lovers, it’s a relationship book that will help you build your interaction with the people around you. You will discover the power of loving your neighbour and the secret benefits of that. The author also shared some powerful insights about love in the wrong place and how you can get yourself off it. The book again has short powerful words that you can meditate on. One of the words that got me thinking was where she said, “Until we learn to begin to turn our pains to gain, we probably would not enjoy our lives much.” No matter who has broken your heart or disappointed you, let go and let God in. If you need more out of life, I will advise you to read Love Code by Nike Adeyemi and learn how to use it to improve yourself. Remember, for you to feel the power of love, you have to give it out.
2. BOY MEETS GIRL by Joshua Harris: Why your past comes knocking, was the first page I opened in the book and the author shared some amazing information that made me ask myself; why do we still fall into sexual sin as young people when we know that it’s not good and even after we have asked for forgiveness from God? Joshua, the author said, “The past. Strange, is it? So much of what you want to remember fades like a dream. But what you don’t want to remember. That can hang on for a lifetime. The memories and guilt of past sin chase you. Just when it seems that you’ve outrun them, they come knocking at your door – to remind, to taunt, to condemn.” You might have committed sexual sin and you think because of that God has written you off, the good news Joshua Harris shared in the book is that no matter your sin, God still loves you and your sin will not stop you from being God’s son or daughter. This book, Boy Meets Girl will help all single brothers and sisters discover their purpose for marriage. It will also be a step by step guide to building a great courtship without losing it as well as guide you in your process of choosing a life partner. We have a lot of books on dating and courtship, but this book is very powerful, will build your relationships and your love life with your partner.
3. MR. WRONG by Daniella Blechner: I thank God I had the opportunity to read this book at this point in my life. For a guy like me, reading Mr. Wrong has helped me to discover what can make me a Mr.Wrong. I discovered how to work on myself to be the Mr. Right because it’s who you are that you will attract. There are signs in the book that will help any single woman or lady know when she comes across a guy that knows where he is going. You can’t get somebody who does not have a trace of some of your attitude. Likes attract likes. The book; Mr. Wrong by Daniella Blechner, contains stories of women who have had Mr. Wrong at one point or the other in their lives and one of the things I love in their stories is that they all pointed out some of their mistakes and how they corrected them which led them into better relationships. The author gives strong advice to women who are having issues getting Mr. Right, which I believe is powerful enough to get you back on track, no matter the heart break you have suffered. “As women we tend to blame ourselves as to why the relationship turned sour. We are plagued by persistent thoughts of, “What’s wrong with me?” “Why do I always feel used and abused when the relationship is over?”Daniella continues with the punch line,“There is nothing wrong with you. You are worthy and deserving of love, but I’ve come to realize that we must be right for ourselves before we can offer anything meaningful to another. If you can’t or won’t do that, you will continue to date Mr. Wrong.” To get a copy of this book, check www.daniellablechner.com
4. LOVE’S PERSUASION by Ola Awonubi: This is a short interesting office love novel that shows how relationships build up in the work environment. I keyed into the novel from the chapter one of the Christmas Party and how Ada met Tony who is ‘Oga’s’ son from London’. Tony is this young handsome guy that all the ladies at City Finance were talking about, his gentle man attitude, smile, and the way he talks and interacts with people will make any lady seek his attention. It’s a wonderful love novel that will make you laugh and smile all the way. A wonderful novel to get for your partner during this Val season. I also love the way Ola Awonubi, the author of the novel, used the characters and everyday language that will make you be a part of the story and look forward to what will come next in other pages.

5. CASUAL SEX WHY NOT? by Niyi Odunsi: On Sunday, 15th December, 2013, at about 5:30am, after my early morning prayer, I picked another book by Niyi Odunsi, the author of Love & Dating to read and I got captivated by the story and powerful information in Casual Sex Why Not?, I felt sorry for myself because I was running late for the end of the year Thanksgiving Sunday Service, but I was happy at the same time because the information I came across in the introduction and first chapter showed the way out for Christians who had been involved in casual sex and are still fighting with it after they are married. Before I dropped the book for the Sunday service, my eyes came across these strong words that I meditated on while going to church. The author said, “As John explained to me during our discussion. He was persuaded long before he met Mary that God wanted to use him as an evangelist. I was awed by some of the testimonies he shared concerning some crusades he had participated in. Soon after he became involved in pre-marital sex, however, he noticed that his passion for the salvation of souls waned. He was now ushering in church. Wondering what happened to his dreams of turning millions of souls to Christ.” The casual sex you had during your courtship stopped the anointing on your life; the gift is still there, but it’s not really effective anymore. Your marriage is built on a wrong foundation that will not last because you didn’t deal with the root problem. Flee from fornication; it’s not as easy as it sounds. You cannot even stop it on your own without a spiritual help. This act leads to all the issues married folks are facing in their relationships. If it’s not dealt with before marriage, it will create a distance between them, which will invite adultery, which is the killer of union and God’s glorious destinies for their home and individual lives. When I got to this page, ‘The Way Out’, there was a sigh of relief and a very powerful advice for singles, “If you are single and you are still involved in casual sex, the solution to your problem is straightforward. BREAK UP THE RELATIONSHIP! DO NOT GO AHEAD AND GET MARRIED. If you do, you will end up with a lot of regrets.” When you BREAK UP, what next might be part of the questions on your mind, fine! Niyi explained how to be totally free in the book. If you have not involved yourself in casual SEX, you need this book to keep you away from it. If you are already involved, you need to learn how to stop it; not because of the person you are, but because of the person God has called you to be and if you are free, you also need to know what will keep you victorious when temptation comes.
6. SECRETS OF AN IRRESISTIBLE WIFE by BISI & YOMI ADEWALE: Tears rolled down my eyes; I felt pity for men who are facing what I call the bed room bully from the women they love. This was the letter from a husband to his wife from a book I highly recommend to only married folks who do not enjoy the kind of love they used to when their love was still fresh. This book contains secrets that make the successful marriages you envy. You may think it’s money or a successful career that makes them, but it’s much more than that. The letter from the book: “My dear wife, I want to let you know how I feel about our sex life, and how it affects me negatively. Most of the time you complain about me becoming angry too easily, what you don’t know is that my anger most of the time is not about what got me angry, but about the way you are handling our sex life. You always think you are doing me a favour by allowing me to sleep with you. The way you normally reject me, affect me, my ego, my manhood, my leadership and this is because you reject me in an annoying way. Before I got married to you, I had the dream of having an unfettered access to sex after wedding, that is why I kept myself for you till our wedding night. I enjoyed the best of you during our honey moon and few months after, things fell apart and the center could not hold. Now our bedroom life has become dry, drab and uninteresting. This is putting more pressure on me, with tension of lust, passion and immorality staring at me in the face. I must confess to you, I now struggle daily to overcome sexual sins, something that was not happening to me even as a single. During the last 3 years, I have attempted to make love to you 600 times and I succeeded only 62 times, this is an average of once in 10 attempts. (Read all the complains in the book, you will laugh, cry and feel sorry for yourself if you give your husband these excuses and you will also feel sorry for yourself if you are the husband).
