Determined, compassionate, and focused on her career, she has no intention of allowing anything to distract her from the future she has worked so hard to build. But life has plans of its own. As preparations begin for the marriages of her cousins,the Abdullah family is filled with celebrations, traditions, laughter, and the excitement of new beginnings. Then, during a family gathering, Kaka-Kulu-the respected grand-ma of the family-makes an unexpected suggestion. Haneen's name is mentioned. And so is Zaydullah's. Zaydullah is a doctor known for his calm nature, discipline, and reserved personality. He is not the kind of man who easily reveals what is on his mind-and Haneen has never imagined that their paths could lead anywhere beyond what there where. Neither of them knows that their future is being discussed behind closed doors. Meanwhile, Haneen's new hospital brings unfamiliar challenges, and a certain doctor she never expected to become such a significant part of her life. Between the demands of medicine, family expectations, and unexpected feelings, Haneen will discover that the life she carefully planned may not be the life written for her.
