About this listen
Suspenseful and riveting, Skirts, Ties and Taboos (previously published as Nfudu) is a gripping tale of passion, ambition, and glamour. Set in the vibrant 1960s Paris, London, and Lagos, it follows Nfudu, a young woman who leaves her affluent but chaotic Nigerian family behind to pursue her dream of becoming a renowned fashion designer.
Soon after arriving in Paris in 1963, Nfudu launches a heart-rending secret affair with her best friend's charismatic and wealthy father, Javier. When she meets Ikechi, a striking financier, in London, Nfudu's bond with Javier is tested. Ikechi appears to be the perfect match, but a grim revelation about his caste and the societal taboos surrounding its origins forces Nfudu to confront deep-seated prejudices and defend her honor.
Torn between her insatiable love for Javier and her burning desire for Ikechi, Nfudu takes matters into her own hands. Her actions send her down a slippery slope that threatens not only her existence but also that of those closest to her. Full of twists and turns, Skirts, Ties & Taboos intricately weaves a spellbinding love story with themes of crime, war, hatred, ancient taboos, and a clash of civilizations.

Amazing listen from start to finish!
I loved listening to this story! The storyline is so captivated I had to listen to it all in one day (even had it playing while taking a bath). I will definitely be listening again, especially with the sweet and smooth narration. Can’t wait for this author to release more of her books on audible! Must read/listen
