Safeerah Abdulrahman has always lived within the guarded walls of family honour and expectations. But on the night that should have marked joy-the celebration of her brother's wedding-her life takes a devastating turn. A secret she hoped to outrun resurfaces: she is carrying the child of her ex, the man who betrayed her trust and stained her name. To shield her family from disgrace, Safeerah is thrust into an arranged marriage with Fawaz AbdulHafeez-her distant, cold cousin whose pride has always clashed with her quiet strength. Their union is meant to be nothing more than a cover, a means to hide what cannot be revealed. Yet behind the closed doors of a marriage built on convenience, wounds begin to heal in unexpected ways. Fawaz, guarded by his own past, finds himself drawn to the woman he once dismissed. Safeerah, fighting guilt and fear, discovers comfort where she least expected it. But love is fragile in a world ruled by judgement. Whispers grow, secrets threaten to surface, and the weight of their pretence becomes harder to bear. Between hidden truths, painful histories, and the baby that binds them, Safeerah and Fawaz must decide: Is love strong enough to survive beneath the veil of shame and silence? Or will the past destroy the future they never meant to build?

She is focusing on her first year of university, and is keeping herself busy. She just wants to forget everything that happened earlier that year. How her life turned into a living hell. She just wants to live a normal, happy life.

He is the CEO of The Malik Enterprises. They have both been hurt in the past. They both have secrets. What will happen when Zaid re-enters Zara's life?

In politics, image is everything. Behind every picture-perfect smile, someone always bleeds. "The world will see your ring... but only I will see the leash attached to it." Layla married for freedom. He married for power. Their union was never about love, it was performance. A show for the cameras, a fantasy for the nation. But in this world, scripts don't last. Desire festers, deception deepens, trust and loyalty are measured by how many skeletons you can bury, and secrets rise - the kind powerful enough to destroy nations. In political affairs, no one is ever what they seem. The same person who kisses you for the cameras... might be the one to pull the trigger in the dark. This is the price of power - gaining it, keeping it, surviving it. Another irony of this life? You go from wanting freedom to falling into the arms of someone who wants to own your being. "Every one of my yeses will be your yes... my no will be yours too." This isn't a marriage. It's a battle wrapped with luxury!!!

Against all odds, he fights to be with her, defying a society that deems their love impossible. In a world where the scars of divorce threaten to define her, Hafsa must decide: will she let the stigma shatter her dreams, or will she take Ibrahim's hand and rewrite her story on her own terms? A moving tale of resilience, self-discovery, and an all-consuming love that rises above the noise of judgment and tradition. This is Hafsa's journey-a battle to reclaim her life and prove that even in a world of broken expectations, love can conquer all.

THIS BOOK IS NOW A PREVIEW It wasn't the color of his eyes, or how they were hooded and look almost half asleep, everything took on life as long as she stared into his eyes. It was what she saw in them, what he made her see, how he looked at her, there was not a single stare of his that hadn't plunged her more in love with him, with his eyes he made her feel loved, he reprimanded her with them and he made her toes curl under her feet. All the deep, dark twisted side of him became opened to her, through his eyes, at his expressive best, or when they shifted to conceal a pain that he was sure revealing that would cause her pain. His Hazels. *** If Being Bilaal's wife came with a price, it was a tag worth every cent, every pain and sacrifice she'd made all her life..
