Obelia Akanke
Obelia Akanke
Obelia can be truthfully described as “one of a kind.” Her writing style varies from verse to free form, topics may cover anything from mental health to everyday life for mom, and she will write with the same passion for one person as the intended audience as she does for 100. Her debut novel released in February 2018 and has given us another avenue by which we can see her works and talents.

Violet Heart
Writing isn't just what I do. It's who I am. I write erotic romance because the characters intrigue me. It's an edgy genre with tough heroes and feisty heroines. This genre gives me an opportunity to work with truly damaged characters who find strength deep within to overcome their failings.
My paranormal historical short stories are so much fun to write. There's not a lot of this subgenre on the market, so my imagination can go wild. My longer contemporary works involve characters with serious internal conflict and pasts that have left them grasping for any kind of control they can find. This control, as in real life, often comes through physical contact. Website: www.violetheartbooks.com Facebook: @VioletHeart
