Tethered hearts (an arranged marriage)
When Fardous agrees to an arranged marriage with Amir, her sister's former fiancé , she doesn't expect peace, let alone affection. What begins as a quiet act of duty quickly turns into an uneasy coexistence between two strangers bound by circumstance, pride, and unspoken pain. He's composed, reserved, and unreadable.

But in a world where expectations are heavy and emotions are dangerous, love isn't a fairytale it's a slow unraveling. And sometimes, the hardest part isn't learning to love someone new, it's allowing yourself to be loved at all. "He said he'd respect her boundaries. She didn't realize how much that promise would cost them both." I guess you'd just have to read and see. THIS BOOK IS FOR MATURE AUDIENCE ONLY.
