She came to London to build a future. She never expected to find a man who would make her question everything she planned. Elena came to London with one goal: work hard, become independent, and build a life she could be proud of. Love was nowhere on her list. Then she met Adrian. Their first meeting was in the middle of London traffic and Elena rejected him without a second thought. She didn’t care about his expensive car, his confidence, or the fact that he clearly wasn’t used to hearing the word no. But somehow, they kept meeting. A chance encounter became a friendship. Friendship slowly turned into something neither of them could ignore. Adrian was determined to prove that his interest in Elena had nothing to do with a passing attraction, while Elena fought to protect the independence she had worked so hard to build. The closer they became, the harder it was to pretend there was nothing between them. But love isn’t always simple. Jealousy, misunderstandings, stubborn hearts, and the fear of losing control threaten to pull them apart. And when Elena finally realizes that Adrian may have become more than just a friend, she must decide whether to protect her carefully planned future or take a chance on the man who has been waiting patiently for her heart. Sometimes, the person you try hardest to avoid is the one your heart keeps finding. The Traffic Between Us is a slow-burn Nigerian romance set in London, filled with chemistry, teasing, emotional tension, jealousy, friendship, and a love neither Elena nor Adrian saw coming.
