COMPLETED!!! Abuja - the city of power and secrets. Zayd Ibrahim Khalil leaned against the hood of his Mercedes, the engine still purring, though he wasn't going anywhere. He scrolled absently through his phone, notifications piling in from friends, half the girls in Abuja, and half-hearted invitations to exclusive parties. His thumb hovered, pausing at a recent blog post headline: "If you like make your papa be minister, this babe no really send you!" The picture beneath it showed him -face frowned, mid-rant and her, calm and unwavering, staring him down like he was nothing more than a storm she refused to be swept away by. She wasn't like the others. She didn't care about who his father was, or how much his car cost, or that he'd graduated from one of the best tech universities in Dubai. She didn't want his attention and that only made him want hers even more. Amina "Amal" Muhammad. Final year Petroleum Engineering student. Youngest of her circle. The one whose eyes didn't just look, they saw. The one whose veil wasn't just fabric, it was conviction. He clenched his jaw. "She thinks she's above it all," he muttered. But beneath his arrogance, something twisted in his chest an ache he didn't want to name. It wasn't just rejection. It was something deeper. Something dangerous. Somewhere across town, Amal sat with her journal open, the words flowing like prayers. "He's everything I was taught to stay away from... but somehow, I keep seeing him everywhere I go." Neither of them knew it yet, but this was no ordinary clash of personalities. This was the beginning of a firestorm. One fueled by pride and mystery, the other by power and faith. This was the moment where love first struck... not gently, but like lightning.
Veiled behind it all secrets, ambition, pain, and the possibility of redemption. And neither of them would come out untouched. Rankings No.1 Naija Stories- 3rd August 2025 No. 2 Arewa Stories- 3rd August 2025 No.1 billionaireson- 7th August 2025

This book is a spin-off of my first book, *Damsel in Distress*. If you are a DID reader, welcome back! If you are new here, check out my first book (you will love it) before reading this. Otherwise, it might be a bit confusing. However, if you are okay with missing pieces and are just here for a fun read, go on, be my guest. Zeeshan Obeid Othman is your typical workaholic businessman who doesn't have a life outside of work. Don't worry, he isn't grumpy and actually has a fun side that only comes out when he is with his cousins (he doesn't have many friends). Zeeshan is afraid of his father, who is all about parampara, pratishtha, and anushasan (tradition, prestige, and discipline). He is known for being his father's disciplined, well-mannered, and hardworking son. His only ambition in life is to be more successful than he was yesterday. Sarah Ahmed is the only daughter of her millionaire father, Haider Ahmed. She owns a boutique where she sells modest but fashionable clothes. She's everything Zeeshan is not: lively, bold, outspoken, and friendly. Her father wants her to get married, but she has been rejecting proposals left and right. Apparently, Sarah's standards are too high, or perhaps getting married is not her priority at all. The Ahmeds and the Othmans are good family friends and business partners. Now they want to take their friendship and partnership one step further by getting Zeeshan Obeid Othman married to Sarah Ahmed. On the surface, they seem like a perfect match, but Ms. Ribbons (Sarah Ahmed) has a grudge against Mr. Suit and tie(Zeeshan). She dislikes him and never misses a chance to criticize him, and Zeeshan is irked by her judgments and doesn't want anything to do with her. So, let's see how Ms. Ribbons versus Mr. Suit and tie turns into Ms. Ribbons weds Mr. Suit and tie. ______________ This is a rom-com. A simple light hearted read. I hope you enjoy it 😊

AOTH Sagir Bawa was once a man overflowing with love and tenderness until his first heartbreak shattered his soul in the cruellest way imaginable. That single event transformed him, filling his heart with bitterness and leaving him vowing never to love again. Relationships, marriage, and the thought of being with another woman became a distant, scorned memory. But fate rarely follows the plans we make. When his parents decide to force him into an arranged marriage, despite his vehement protests, Sagir finds himself standing on the precipice of a promise he made long ago. Will he bend to their will, or stay true to his vow to never love again? Then came her........ Hairana Sultan, whose stubbornness and fiery personality masked a life overshadowed by aching sorrow. She believed love was nothing but an illusion-a word spoken but never truly felt. And like Sagir, marriage had been forced upon her, though to Hairana, it seemed like the only way to grasp her freedom. But secrets have their own gravity, and Hairana's mother holds the weightiest one of all-one that could shake Hairana's world to its core. When Sagir and Hairana's paths collide, both tethered by destiny, their unyielding stubbornness threatens to combust. Neither believes in love; neither trusts the idea of happiness shared with another. Yet, can the heart remain untouched when fate is determined to intervene? As challenges arise, and life's trials test the strength of their resolve, will their hearts soften toward each other-or will their aching hearts remain impenetrable, refusing to bow to the whispers of love? ......... ☺️☺️☺️
