Against the Wind

Uju Emordi's best friend died of complications after a butt lift. Grief has turned into a campaign: Uju wants every cosmetic surgery centre shut down. She hosts a podcast, and it has been drawing protesters to the cause.

Her first target is Blossom Health, the largest centre in the country. Standing in her way is Dr David Njokwu, its newest partner and a plastic surgeon. His job is to neutralise the podcaster who is turning public opinion against his profession.

David's attempts to get a meeting with Uju go nowhere. Then she walks into his office herself and asks for a consultation. The visit hands him a chance to argue that surgeons are not her enemy, and it puts the two of them in the same room.

Each has a goal that depends on the other losing. David may find that her charisma and beauty cloud his judgement, while Uju has to keep his charm from undermining her protests. This contemporary romance is the fourth book in the Lagos Plastic Surgeons series.
