Aaliyah has always lived by her rules - a serious, disciplined girl with exams to ace, dreams to chase, and a love for her friends and everything delicate in life. From the perfect henna on her hands to the careful planning of events, she thrives in order, in beauty, in quiet control. Ayzaan Hameed Al-Rashid, on the other hand, is the exact opposite. A force of nature wrapped in wealth, power, and unshakable confidence. A soldier and a general and a prince soon to be a king with a heart caged by anger, a man who commands respect and bends the world around him - yet knows no one can truly reach him. When their worlds unexpectedly collide in Kano - at a wedding, amidst laughter, celebrations, and family drama - neither of them knows how much their lives are about to change. She's tasked with caring for her best friend, managing delicate traditions, and navigating the excitement of girls' night and henna designs. He's reluctantly attending a wedding he didn't even want to come to, moving at a speed faster than the world can catch, commanding attention with every glance, every word, every action. A handful of events. Endless sparks. Friendships tested. Loyalties challenged. And in the middle of it all, Aaliyah and Ayzaan begin to see each other - not as strangers, not as acquaintances, but as forces that could either collide or entwine. In a city where traditions meet modern chaos, where families hold power and secrets, and where one glance can change everything, how will two completely different worlds survive... or succumb to the pull between them? Romance. Drama. Friendship. Power. Chaos. Step into a world where nothing is simple, and hearts don't follow the rules.

He's off-limits... but resisting him might be impossible. *** When Madelaine Grayson's bathroom ceiling caves in, it's not just drywall that crumbles. It's her entire world. Forced to move in with her brother, she finds herself swept up in the chaos of his new protective attitude - especially when it comes to his tattooed roommate, Noah Laurier. Noah is the epitome of perfection: sweet, hot, and embedded into every thought Madelaine has. But he's forbidden, and the closer she gets, the harder he is to resist. Well... what her brother doesn't know can't hurt him, right? *** "Matt's sister, I presume?" He walks towards the couch and my eyes widen. He's tall. I thought I was tall but this man could tower me, and when he reaches a hand towards me, there's an intricate clock tattooed on the back of his hand and his fingers have bones tattooed over them. This man is not human. He's tall and angular and dripping with sex appeal. This man is hot. Capital H, capital O, capital T. I don't think I've ever seen a human being so attractive. All I can think about as I force myself to keep my eyes on the screen is the feel of his jaw beneath my hand, and it takes everything in me not to look back at him.

'I didn't know that you have a tattoo.' Jude slightly touched my skin on the right side underneath my bikini top, and I felt my breath getting heavier. 'It's a phrase in decorative letters that my grandpa used to say: Never stop dreaming. He passed away last year, and I'm very close with my family, so that was a hard time to go through. This tattoo brings me comfort; it's almost like he is with me.' I noticed Jude staring at my tattoo intensely, a bit too long. 'It's suits you well, very sexy...' His words left his mouth. I felt my heart beating in my chest. 'Thank you.' was the only thing I could say. What's wrong with me?

--- Juwairiyyah never imagined her quiet afternoons in a Kano bookstore would draw the attention of Ayaan - a man whose presence commanded silence, whose calm dominance made the world move around him. At twenty-nine, he was respected, envied, and desired by many, yet untouched by the endless stares of women who longed to claim him. But Ayaan was not as untouchable as he seemed. Beneath his control lay a heart unsettled, haunted by choices of the past, and drawn to a girl who should have been nothing more than a stranger in rain. As fate pulls them closer, Juwairiyyah finds herself torn between innocence and desire, tradition and freedom. And Ayaan must face a truth he has long avoided: power and wealth can command respect - but not the heart. In a world where family expectations, cultural pride, and the shadows of an ex still linger, will their connection survive the test of love, or will it shatter before it even begins? ---
