She came to the Middle East to work, not to fall in love.
After nearly a year working quietly in Mr. Al Rashid's house, Nia has learned to keep her head down, her heart guarded, and her past buried. But everything shifts when the boss's eldest son returns from Europe - confident, half-European, and everything she was warned about.
Luca is drawn to her immediately. Soft-spoken but strong, Nia becomes the one thing he can't ignore in a home full of rules, secrets, and expectations.
But in a house where love is forbidden, walls are thin, and traditions are thick, how long can they pretend nothing is happening?
A slow-burn, cross-cultural love story about longing, duty, and the kind of passion that can't be spoken aloud.
- Featuring African and Arabic proverbs, real Saudi customs, and a romance that dares to breathe behind closed doors.
