Trying to go past her life, distancing herself from what is wrong and sinful as best as she can, finding the purpose of her life, of her creation, along the way. وَمَكَرُوا وَمَكَرَ اللَّهُ ۖ وَاللَّهُ خَيْرُ الْمَاكِرِينَ - 3:54 And she planned, and Allah planned, and indeed Allah is the best of planners. So when her life takes a huge turn, and in comes a whole lot of boys, two Muslim girls she befriends, and a lot of people intending to steer her away from the straight path, she struggles to stay on the straight path she's been so sternly following her whole life. Other incidents, involving the death of her loved ones , push Reem's limits, and she tries her very best to trust her Lord's plan for her, sticking to her daily prayers and having patience, يَا أَيُّهَا الَّذِينَ آمَنُوا اسْتَعِينُوا بِالصَّبْرِ وَالصَّلَاةِ ۚ إِنَّ اللَّهَ مَعَ الصَّابِرِينَ - 2:153 O you who have believed, seek help through patience and prayer. Indeed, Allah is with the patient.

"She had this thought. Not about choking hazards on children's toys or fatal car crashes, but a thought about how Skylar was not entirely a person. He was more like an ocean with violent currents; one of the seven seas with skin and bones and teeth. He was waterlogged with despair; bad weather with the premonition of a hurricane. And she thought that she finally understood why they named hurricanes after humans. But she lived in Arizona all of her life; she had never seen a hurricane, and she found that fitting because she had never seen anything like him either." He was as tragic as a hurricane. She was as volatile as a tornado. But when Skylar and Scout collided, they were bound for the sun. NOTE: Art for book cover by Budi Kwan.

To many, Scarlett James is known as the illustrious Lady Humphries. To a select few, she's recognized as Madame Mischief, the woman who pens London's most beloved gossip column. What lies will Scarlett tell to keep the pieces of her cover from falling apart? **** Leo Pearce is a vastly popular earl in London's top society. He has it all within his reach: abundant wealth, powerful connections, and gushing debutantes. But more than anything...he wants her. When Leo gets involved in a wager detailing who will be the next man to win Lady Humphries' affections, he finds the task harder than he could have ever thought. But unbeknownst to Leo, not only does Lady Humphries know of the bet, she's also the one who orchestrated it. A widowed countess has ends to meet, after all, and she'd rather London society believe her to be a man's mistress than know the truth. Mischief in Mayfair is her greatest secret.
