Isko comes from a supportive family, yet he struggles to find his true direction in life while facing constant bullying both inside and outside of school. His life takes a turn when he reconnects with his childhood neighbor, Maui Tj Chavez, the school gang leader.
Maui, on the other hand, has a clear ambition: he dreams of becoming a doctor but lacks the financial means to pursue this goal. Every morning, he leaves for his Grade 3 class at the same school as Isko. Even though his class was dismissed at noon, he would return home at night exactly when Isko's class ended, drawing them to walk home together. Because of his intimidating reputation, Isko's bullies keep their distance from them.
As they grow closer, as the world hates them... Maui protects Isko's freedom, while Isko, still uncertain of his own future, agrees to carry on Maui's fading dream of becoming a doctor. They did what they could to hold on to their dreams and hope.
But everything falls apart when Isko accidentally kills a student who had been bullying him, dragging them both into a catastrophe that changes everything.

Becoming a doctor wasn't just a dream anymore, it was proof that a woman could be more than someone's daughter, wife, or mother. But one family decision shattered everything. Forced into a Nikkah with her cousin Zayan Rahman, Aisha enters a marriage she never wanted with a man she believes will never understand her ambitions. To the world, Zayan is charming, careless, and impossible to take seriously. But behind his effortless smiles lies years of silent love and the painful truth that no matter how long he waited for Aisha, she never once looked at him the same way. Trapped between family expectations, buried resentment, and feelings neither of them know how to handle, their marriage becomes a battlefield of pride, heartbreak, and slowly unfolding love. Because sometimes destiny doesn't tie souls together gently. Sometimes it knots them so tightly that breaking apart becomes impossibleComplete

Knife's Edge
With a drug lord for a father and an addict for a mother, Jade Taylor was dealt a pretty shabby hand in life. Her childhood was spent in a constant state of fear, her only solace being her two half-sisters -- Charlotte and Bailey -- who were forced to live the nightmare alongside her. But things all changed when their father got sent to prison. Eight new social workers and five foster families later, the girls finally found their home. Now, at eighteen, Jade is counting down the days until her exams are over, excited to spend a stress-free summer with her boyfriend, her two best friends, and her forever family. Unfortunately, things don't always go to plan -- not in a town like Greencliff. Upon meeting the Coleman brothers -- a family that fits so well into the 'gang' culture she so desperately wants to avoid -- Jade finds herself teetering on the edge of a blade, carefully balanced between the life she wants and the life she wants to escape. And when she catches the eye of Lucas Coleman, the eldest of the brothers, it's only a matter of time before she falls. Only one question remains: Which way will she land?
