Copyright © 2024. All rights reserved. Aisha Aminu Babangida has spent her life searching for a passion she can truly call her own. Growing up in a household that stifled her choices, she never had the freedom to explore what she loved. Worse, relentless body shaming from her stepmother and those around her left her feeling trapped in her own skin. "You're too skinny!" "Do you even eat at all? "I swear you gained weight yesterday, but today you look..." And her personal favorite from her future husband. "...all bones." People claimed to envy her body, but Aisha knew better. What was there to be jealous of? Struggling with an eating disorder, anxiety and depression, she makes a bold decision; to take control of her life by joining the gym. Her weight gain journey was anything but easy, but she is determined to rewrite her own story. Khalid Muhammad Bugaje has only ever had one goal; to live up to his father's legacy. Raised on stories of power, discipline, and honor, he knew from a young age that failure was not an option. As the son of a highly respected General, expectations weighed on him heavier than any armor. But when his father suggests that he marry a woman he cannot stand, Khalid finds himself in a battle unlike any other. One that has nothing to do with war and everything to do with the heart. And for the first time in his life, he loses.

Surrayya doesn't do complications. Life is sweet when you keep things simple- bake, paint, watch F1, and avoid emotional entanglements. Feelings? Too messy. Love? Too risky. She'd rather stick to what she can control: her dreams, her business, and her ever-growing collection of car facts no one asks for. Hafiz likes life structured. Numbers make sense. Investments have predictable outcomes. He has always believed that with enough discipline, life can be controlled. But lately, he's starting to realize- some things aren't meant to follow a formula, proving that even the best-laid plans can crash and burn. Their paths weren't supposed to cross. And yet, somehow, they crashed into each other-in the most unexpected place. She's all spontaneity; he's all logic. She runs from feelings; he's learning to confront them. Neither of them is looking for love, but love? It might just be looking for them. Because sometimes, the best things in life happen when you're not paying attention.

Shari'a & Shadows series book one A Perfect Match - Law or Love Is a layered, thought-provoking tale set in contemporary Arewa society, where faith, family, and justice are not just ideals-but battlegrounds. Nadia Siddiqui is 23, ambitious, and principled-a newly qualified Shari'a lawyer determined to use the law to give voice to the silenced. But even as she fights for justice in the courtroom, her personal life is unraveling. Her elder sister, Nimrah, returns home broken from a deeply abusive marriage, bearing both physical and emotional scars. Nadia, haunted by the case she lost in court just two months ago, begins to question everything-from the integrity of the system to her own understanding of honor, family, and duty. Amar Shagari is the son of a highly respected Shari'a judge. Educated, eloquent, and widely admired, he walks the line between tradition and reform. But when he meets Nadia across the courtroom floor, he sees a woman who challenges his beliefs and stirs something in him that goes beyond law. Their unexpected intersection-first as legal opponents, then as potential suitors-sets the stage for a battle of convictions, unspoken wounds, and buried desires. As families intervene, secrets unravel, and proposals are made in whispers and expectations, Nadia and Amar must ask themselves: Is love enough to withstand the weight of law, legacy, and loyalty? And in a world where silence is often mistaken for piety, can speaking the truth ever lead to peace? This is a story about women who endure, men who must unlearn, and a love that dares to rewrite the rules.
