Synopsis

She fell in love with the way he protected a stranger. It never crossed her mind to ask — who would protect her from him? Amara thought she had found the kind of love women pray for. Dayo was calm where the world was chaotic, gentle where life was rough. He was the man who stepped into a violent crowd to save a stranger — the man who made her believe that good men still existed. So when he chose her, she chose him back. Completely. Their love was the kind that made people smile. Family approved. Friends envied. The wedding felt like a beginning of everything good. But good things can hide sharp edges. Slowly — so slowly she almost didn't notice — the man who once protected a stranger began to become the thing she needed protection from. The gentleness curdled into control. The calm became something colder. And the love she had built her whole life around began to cost her more than she ever agreed to pay. Then she found out she was pregnant. And everything changed. Because now it wasn't just her life she was living for. For My Child, I Will Rise is the story of one woman's journey through love, loss, and the quiet, terrifying courage it takes to choose yourself — and your daughter — before it's too late. It is a story for every woman who has ever stayed too long. For every woman who has ever been told she was too much and not enough at the same time. For every woman who looked at her child and finally found the reason to rise. Some love stories teach you about love. This one teaches you about survival.
