He knelt down in front of me, his movements slow, deliberate. I blinked, startled, as he reached into a small box, pulling out two diamond anklets. They sparkled under the light, and for a moment, I just stared at them in awe. "I bought these for you," he said softly, his voice almost reverent as he lifted my leg gently onto his knee. I felt my breath catch in my throat as he held my ankle with a tenderness I wasn't sure he even realized he was capable of. Ayla Elrayes and Rowan Faris are brought together through an arranged marriage-a union set up by their powerful families. Ayla, an 18-year-old psychology student, and Rowan, a 23-year-old tech genius and mafia heir, are at odds with the circumstances. The forced proximity breeds tension, but over time, a slow-burn connection begins to form between them. Ayla is the sunshine to Rowan's grumpy demeanor, her kindness and optimism starting to break through his cold exterior. As they navigate the complexities of their relationship, Ayla's quiet strength, Rowan's hidden vulnerabilities, and the challenges of their different worlds collide, making for a story of growth, trust, and unexpected love. Their journey is a delicate balance of duty, personal growth, and learning to embrace the deepening bond between them. From navigating their cultural traditions to dealing with Rowan's mafia responsibilities, both Ayla and Rowan must come to terms with their individual desires and obligations in a world that seems to hold so much against them.

"We never asked for this. Our lives were written by others, our hearts shackled to a contract neither of us wanted. But somewhere between the lies we told ourselves, we found something we never expected to feel-something dangerous, the truth ." Love was a luxury I never sought, never allowed myself to want. I built walls so high, pushing people away to keep them safe, only letting a few in for fleeting moments of pleasure. But when her parents demand an arranged marriage to unite our families, my father has no choice but to agree. Defy them, and we risk everything. I knew her already-knew the way the sun made her skin glow, the way her curly brown hair danced with every step she took. But did I like her? That was a whole different question. Our families' hatred ran deep, centuries of bloodshed and betrayal fueling the fire that had burned between us for as long as I could remember. The only reason I even tolerated her was because of her brother-my best friend. The one person I thought I could trust... until I learned I was never supposed to be his ally at all. Now, fate has forced us into a marriage neither of us wanted. It feels like a foreign limb, an unwanted tumor growing at my side, suffocating every ounce of freedom I had. The question is-can we both survive this? Or will one of us end up broken, shattered by the weight of what we never asked for? But somewhere along the way, the impossible happened: I fell for her. Completely. Undoubtedly. And now, I don't know if we'll make it out alive... or if we'll destroy each other in the process.
