Parsaai Noorani is an 18-year-old girl that has been accused of an unforgivable act. Because of it, she loses everything. Her scholarship to Cambridge, any friends she’d ever had, and the worst thing. Her parents’ trust. Overcome by disbelief, disappointment, and anger, they send Parsaai, better known as Pari, to Mina, her birthplace and motherland, hoping the time away from London and home will return her to her senses and allow people time to forget. In Mina, she is surrounded by family she hasn’t seen in ages. Aunts, Uncles, and cousins that had once, during her childhood, been like brothers and sisters to her. Now, she can barely remember their names. Regardless, they treat her like their own, like she and her family had never left the city. They accept her—mistakes and all, unlike her parents, who sent her away because of one she never committed. But, despite their love and kindness, she still feels like an outsider, a stranger that is constantly being discussed in private. And then, as she finally starts to feel less uncomfortable around her family, as she slowly begins to open up to them and enjoy herself, she is forced to see them in their true, ugly forms. Simultaneously, as if to further disturb her trip, Mina is suddenly placed under martial law in order to counter the violent riots that have begun erupting around the city. A strict curfew that every tourist, visitor, and citizen must abide by is established. Anyone who dares to break it or tries to go against it is immediately arrested and jailed. Everywhere she turns, Pari sees soldiers, adorned in Pakistan and India's national colors, armed with large, daunting weapons. One solider in particular, who she coincidentally encounters on many occasions, attracts her stubborn curiosity and brings out her fear the most. He seems ruthless, overbearing, cruel, and downright monstrous. And though she tries to stay away from him and the others as much as she can, Fate has other things in mind.

"You are not--and never will be--my wife." Salim Meer. He smokes, he drinks, he parties, and he couldn't care less about his religion. He struggles to keep his painful past that way--in the past--and often turns to violence and danger to keep his mind from revisiting it. Sabah Ibrahim. She's never smoked or had alcohol, never been to a party, and is extremely devout and conservative. She volunteers at the community center, helps out at her local mosque, and reads in her free time. They never thought polar opposites like them could meet. Or worse... When Salim comes home one day to find a random girl in his living room, he has no idea what to do except what he does best. Get angry and throw a fit. Especially when he finds out that this stranger is his so-called "wife." Unable to get rid of her, Salim must learn to cope with this annoying, childish, and sickeningly innocent girl he is suddenly responsible for. She irritates him to no end, pushes his buttons, and forces him to acknowledge his past. Yet, no matter how hard he tries to ignore her, he simply can't. Slowly, Sabah begins to make a place for herself in his well-guarded heart. Around her, his vicious, fiercely protective side begins to surface, eventually leading to something that threatens to steal from him the one thing he thought he resented but now realizes he can't live without. His Sabah.

Girls. That is all Zaid has ever known. Some people only have to put up with their mother, maybe girlfriend (the harami's), but for Zaid, he has been blessed with the delights of having 7 sisters who are overbearing and more protective of him than he could ever be of them. However many faults they might have, it's a mutual understanding that they have his best interests at heart; which is why when Zaid goes on a hunt for a wife, the girls take over. Secretly. They can't allow their brother to marry just any girl. The girls have certain expectations and criteria of what any woman needs to be before they can get close to even sniffing Zaid. 1. Loyalty 2. Empathy 3. Have a good sense of humour 4. Elegance 5. Kind Hearted 6. Patience 7. Helpful If any one of these criteria are not met by the woman their brother is looking at as a potential spouse, then the girls go to any means to sabotage the meetings. Will Zaid ever be able to find a woman to marry? ©JaberaRahman 2014
