This is a short happily-ever-after kind of story. Amal Shettima Liman just wanted a solid architecture internship to boost her CV, she didn't plan on working under AbdulAziz Jarma, Abuja's most eligible bachelor and the man who carries seriousness like it's part of his own CV. She's bright, quirky, and full of small chaos. He, on the other hand, is focused, reserved, and allergic to anything that looks like distraction. From day one, they clash, very hard. She annoys him. He intimidates her. And neither of them was ready for how fast those sparks turned into something hotter, deeper, and impossible to ignore. If you love tension, banter, and that delicious moment when enemies realize they're falling, then welcome to DESIGNING HEARTS. The fire starts slow... but when it catches, it sizzles. ©2025 Maimunah Ahmad.

Imad umar Ali is moody, reserved, and quietly broken. Born into wealth but surrounded by emptiness - a powerful father too busy to notice his pain, and a stepmother who makes home feel like a nothing. He learned to hide behind silence. Khairiyya Habib Amin, on the other hand, is everything he's not - lively, outspoken, and full of light. As the class representative, she never missed a chance to tease the quiet boy at the back of the class, unaware of how deeply she was etching herself into his heart. Two souls who once met in laughter now face each other in silence. Can the light she once brought into his world guide them both out of the shadows? Or will their past be the reason they can't find their way back to love? 11/25

Copyright © 2025. 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.

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.
