Come Home, K
Kulthum is going through something. It could be a hormonal shift, another round of her "rebellious teen phase" even though she's now twenty-two, or an identity crisis. Whatever it is, Kulthum has changed. She can feel it, and everyone can see it, but no one can cite a reason for it-including her. When Kulthum comes home from her third unattained university degree, lugging more than suitcases, her parents have had enough. They decide to do what every African parent living in the United Kingdom has once threatened to do. They ship her back home to Nigeria. With a one-way first-class ticket, Kulthum finds herself stranded in the busy city of Lagos, stuck with a family she knows nothing about and surrounded by her culture, which feels completely foreign to her. Her parents hope her year abroad will cause her to have a change of heart...but Kulthum meets a man who might steal it. - - - - First Published September 28th 2024.

Sabr with Niyyah's Grace
As Ouahib arrives in town , carrying the weight of a family that has weathered hardships, including parental separation, and the lingering echoes of a once vibrant home, he embarks on a new beginning, yearning for a different chapter. In contrast, Aaliyah experiences an upbringing unfolding in a home where love takes center stage. Raised by parents who provide a foundation of stability and affection alongside with the importance of their deen, her life stands in striking opposition to Ouahib's challenging past. This difference adds a compelling twist to their emerging love story. Navigating the final round of A-levels together, Ouahib's insecurities and Aaliyah's faith, collide unexpectedly. The classroom transforms into a space that goes beyond textbooks, evolving into a platform where their backgrounds harmonize. Their shared academic journey becomes an opportunity for Ouahib to redefine his narrative and for Aaliyah to explore love amid life's trials. In the corridors of knowledge and the heart of the city, Aaliyah and Ouahib's love story unfolds, threading through the intricacies of family dynamics, resilience, and the transformative power of shared experiences. Importantly, both Aaliyah, a thoughtful Pakistani girl, and Ouahib, a determined Moroccan boy, integrate their Deen into their lives, influencing their perspectives from early on and shaping their upbringing. Driven by their shared commitment to follow the halal way, Aaliyah and Ouahib decide to embrace marriage at a young age, adding a profound yet challenging layer to their evolving story.Complete
HIDDEN AFFECTION
A new story begins... and this time, it's not just about love it's about everything that love hides. Hidden Affection. A tale where emotions run deep even when they're buried beneath anger, silence, and duty. She's fierce, free spirited, and unpredictable a 24 year old with a heart full of spark, rebellion, and unapologetic dreams. He's mature, composed, and everything she swore she'd never fall for a 28 year old man bound by rules, reputation, and silence. They're nothing alike. She's chaos. He's calm. She questions everything. He follows structure. But sometimes, it's the opposites that burn the brightest when they collide. When their worlds crash into each other, sparks fly but not the pretty kind. It's messy. It's intense. And beneath all that chaos... something begins to grow something they both try to deny. A journey that starts with misunderstandings, cold stares, and unexpected encounters... A story where hatred slowly softens into something unspoken. Where boundaries blur. And hearts, unknowingly, begin to lean in. Tropes you'll find in this story: • Arranged Marriage • Professor x Student • Chaotic Couple • Slow Burn Romance • Opposite attracts This is not your typical romance. It's about stolen glances, denial, unsaid feelings, broken rules and hidden care and the slow unfolding of affection that was never supposed to happen. Hidden Affection - By @author_aryaa Creative Collaborator - @ehaawrites We can't wait to share this journey with you.
