Halime Hatun is fire where tradition demands silence-rebellious, sharp-tongued, and fiercely loyal to her tribe and her brother, Orhan Bey. She does not trust easily, and she certainly does not tolerate strangers who watch more than they speak. Dursun arrives as one such stranger-a shepherd by name, a soldier by skill, and a spy by necessity. The son of Karasi Bey, sworn enemy turned reluctant ally, he hides beneath borrowed loyalty while gathering truths that could decide the fate of states. Falling in love was never part of his mission. But Halime was never meant to be easy. What begins as suspicion turns into reluctant respect. Respect sharpens into something dangerous-glances held too long, words weighted with meaning, restraint stretched thin by unspoken desire. Dursun knows loving her is treason in more ways than one. Halime knows trusting him could cost her everything. And yet. Between whispered confessions and political storms, between duty and longing, they find themselves standing on opposite sides of a truth neither can escape: Some wars are not fought with swords. Some betrayals are acts of love. And some hearts belong where they have no right to remain.

Without a word, he fired his gun into the air and barked, "Start preparing for the goddamn wedding." Before she could even process what was happening, he hoisted her over his shoulder and stormed straight to the mandap set up for her cousin's wedding. Slamming her down, he hissed, "That slap just made you my wife." In one brutal motion, he filled her hairline with sindoor, sealing her fate in the most explosive way possible. Her life was no longer her own-𝘐𝘵 𝘞𝘢𝘴 𝘏𝘪𝘴. 𝐁𝐨𝐨𝐤 𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐞𝐝 𝟏𝟖+ | 𝐃𝐚𝐫𝐤 𝐑𝐨𝐦𝐚𝐧𝐜𝐞 | 𝐓𝐡𝐫𝐢𝐥𝐥𝐞𝐫

He's ruthless with his enemies, cruel with his words, and yet... he only has eyes for her.

In the scorching deserts of Alkuthban and the unrelenting cold of Thalabed, "Our Dune of Stars" tells a gripping tale of love, survival, betrayal and high-stakes politics. Princess Aisha's life takes an unexpected turn when she's bound to the enigmatic Abyad Prince, Hassan, in a marriage meant to halt the tides of war between their lands. But as ancient rivalries resurface and rebels plot against her, Aisha must navigate treacherous terrain to ensure her own survival. Hostility and danger lurk at every corner as Aisha and Hassan grapple with a union neither chose. Rebels' shadows loom large, and a daring attack thrusts Aisha into a perilous situation. Meanwhile, unrest simmers as a new menace emerges: the power-hungry Kingdom of Mortar. Tragedy strikes, leaving Aisha bereaved and burdened with leadership as Mortar's forces advance. "Our Dune of Stars" weaves a mesmerizing tapestry of Aisha's journey from pawn to commander, entwining her fate with that of Hassan and the destiny of their realms. Their hearts, like the shifting sands, hold secrets and conflicts that mirror the battles waged on the battlefield. As loyalty is tested and alliances falter, Aisha's quest becomes one of self-discovery, resilience, and the pursuit of a harmonious world. NOTE: This book is inspired by the Arabian / Arab culture.
