The Legend of Tari-Ere: The Picky Virgin

Tari-Ere was beautiful, discerning, and certain that no man in her village was worthy of her heart. But fate had other plans. When she falls in love with a mysterious being beyond her world, Tari-Ere is drawn into an extraordinary journey that tests her courage, resourcefulness, and understanding of love.
Rooted in the rich oral traditions of the Ijaw people of Nigeria’s Niger Delta, The Legend of Tari-Ere: The Picky Virgin is a captivating tale of love, mystery, humility, and self-discovery. As Tari-Ere navigates a world unlike her own and wins the favor of a formidable mother-in-law, she learns lessons that ultimately lead her home—and transform the way she sees love, family, and herself.

Praise for The Legend of Tari-Ere

Tari-Ere is a captivating reminder that our oldest stories still have something to teach us. Beneath the mystery and adventure is a beautiful lesson about humility, love, family, and learning to see beyond our own expectations.
Grace E.: I loved how Tari-Ere blends Ijaw folklore, romance, mystery, and wisdom into one unforgettable story. It is entertaining enough to draw you in, but the lessons stay with you long after you finish reading.
