Nyla Azim is loved as much as she is hated. She is outspoken, extroverted, and too deep in her own thoughts to care what other people think about her. But lately, things have been getting heavier and her heart is changing. She has started to care more and more about what others think and the reason is her faith. Ehsan Zubair has been let down by life too many times to trust easily. Or make friends. He has given up on everything he used to be, finding solace in his faith. But something seems to be missing in his life, a part that just feels empty. And he hopes to find the answer to where he can find fulfillment and a sense of belonging. When they run into each other one fine spring morning, a hatred so profound sparks in their hearts, it is hard to douse. The spark spreads until it burns everything. Will they be able to escape the fire that seems adamant to burn them? Or within the ruins of their lives, will they find the answers they have been looking for? Read to find out.
