Adaeze Ezeaku was born into wealth—but not peace. Raised in a powerful polygamous home in Owerri, she learned early that love could be dangerous and submission was a trap. Determined never to be like her mother and stepmothers, she hardened her heart, embraced luxury, and made power her protection. After university, Adaeze embarks on a lavish tour across Nigeria’s 36 states. Men pay millions to be near her, but none ever touch her heart. That is, until she meets Agu—a poor but brilliant man who offers her something she’s never known: honesty without expectations. For the first time, Adaeze chooses love over luxury. She marries him. But love, she learns, comes with a different kind of war. Faced with infertility and a ruthless mother-in-law, Adaeze is pushed to her breaking point. When her husband begins to yield to family pressure for a second wife, the woman who once mastered silence begins to burn. A story of love, pride, betrayal, and resilience, Ashes Beneath Her Crown follows a woman forced to choose between losing her crown—or setting everything around her on fire.
