Usman Shagari was the kind of man who turned heads without trying,handsome, wealthy, and born into one of the country's most powerful families. But beneath the tailored suits and calculated charm was a man carved from ice distant, unreadable, and deliberately cold to the world. Only a few ever saw the warmth he reserved for those he truly trusted. Once, long ago, love had cracked his armor and nearly destroyed him. Since then, he'd built walls too high for anyone to climb, swearing never to fall again. Dating was off the table. Emotions were a liability. He would know the one when she came, he told himself but until then, nothing and no one would get close. Love wasn't just unimportant it was dangerous. Especially when every smile aimed at him came with an agenda: some drawn by his family name, others by his staggering wealth. And then there were those who followed him online, obsessed with the version of him he curated clean, perfect, untouchable. What they didn't know was that Usman Shagari wasn't just protecting his heart. Na'ima Abubakar lived a life that barely made a ripple at least on the surface. A quiet 300-level student of Nutrition and Dietetics, she came from a modest, middle-class family, the kind that stayed out of trouble and avoided attention. The third of five children Sa'ada, Salim, Zakiya, and Yusuf,Na'ima sat right in the middle, always in the background. But the middle child often sees what others miss. She blended into crowds, kept her head down, followed the rules. No one would have suspected that the girl with the shy smile and quiet eyes was about to be pulled into a storm that would shatter everything she thought she knew about herself, about love, and about the powerful man who would soon enter her world. Stay tuned!🌹

Kabeer Muhammad Bulama and Aysha Ahmad Dawood. Join me to discover their story.

When Allah wants two souls to be together, they will even if the distance between them is the distance between heaven and earth _________ Not every love story begins with fireworks. Sometimes, it starts with broken hearts, quiet prayers, and two souls carrying wounds only time can soothe. Rahmah never believed love would come for her-at least not the kind that stays. The kind that sees your scars, your fears, your silence... and chooses you still. Ahmad was never looking for love, until he found it staring back at him in the quiet strength of a woman who didn't even know her worth. This is a story of two hearts-flawed, fragile, and faithful. Of pain, healing, and the kind of love that doesn't just come and go. It lasts. When love is written by the One who created hearts... it never fades. Follow me to unravel the incredible love story of Ahmad and Rahmah I'm currently writing this book and sharing it as I go. It's not perfect yet, expect some/a lot of errors and unpolished moments. I truly appreciate your presence and support during the process. Hijram Enjoyyy

Arwa Mas'ud and Muhammad Hisham Maleek are opposites in every way-she's a young, idealistic student with a love for novels and a passion for change; he's a wealthy businessman with a hidden life as a detective. _____________________ Arwa knew she shouldn't have challenged him. But when she stood up against Hisham-the cold, arrogant detective with too much power and too much pride-she never imagined the price she would pay. A single argument, a moment of defiance, and suddenly, she's trapped in a forced marriage with a man who would rather punish her than love her. Hisham never let anyone get the better of him.

But what happens when the lesson backfires? When the girl who was meant to break refuses to bend? When the man who swore he wouldn't care starts to? And when enemies lurking in the shadows realize that the easiest way to destroy Hisham... is through the wife he never wanted? Some battles are fought with weapons. Others with words. This one? It's war. Read to find out.
