Fatima Zarah has always lived a quiet life - close to her family, rooted in faith, and certain of the boundaries that protect her peace. But when she leaves home for university, her world opens up in ways she never expected.
Between new friendships, unsettling attention, and lessons that test her sense of self, Fatima begins to rediscover what modesty, confidence, and love truly mean. And just when she's learning to guard her heart, someone unexpected begins to notice her - someone older, composed.
Zayd isn't supposed to be more than a passing figure in her story. Yet, somehow, he becomes the chapter she can't stop turning back to.
Faith, family, and first love intertwine in this tender coming-of-age story about growth, restraint, and the beauty of choosing what truly matters.
