Affianced By Force

You might have heard that your life is never in your hands. Well, young, vibrant and care-free Umamah Sulaym is about to learn the full extent of the phrase. With a father who made engaging her to a man almost twice her age a dying wish, she is about to learn that responsibility knows no age and that duty is duty.

Will she weave through the process of growing up, being married, being a mother and learning about her Lord at the same time or would she drown in the overwhelming burden of it all?

He is cursed. Or at least, so they all say. Faisal Abdul-Rahman is a widower who has lost hope in love and marriage. Besides being a domineering Boss, he is a master at isolation and everyone knows better to stay miles away from him. But when his only friend asks him to marry his oldest daughter as his dying wish, he is both appalled and compelled.

Will he fulfill the promise, become a husband and a father again and risk losing his solitude garden forever or let the 16-year-old kid and her siblings whom he had come to take as his own children find comfort elsewhere?
