Maha Asif is a Pakistani-Canadian internationally-acclaimed author who is returning to her homeland for the first time since she was 10. She's tasked with sorting out her parents' old belongings at her father's family home and told not to engage in any of the family drama her father's side loves to create.
Do what you're there to do and keep your head down. Smile and nod, be the perfect relative.
Seems simple enough.
Except that her father's side seems to be a bit too excited about her arrival, the guy who helped her at the airport is a family friend, and some family wounds run deeper than she originally thought.
Adam Shah is a Pashtun-Canadian lawyer. Work has been hectic and he's looking forward to a relaxing vacation with his family in Islamabad.
But it's not at all relaxing.
Everyone seems to be obsessed with him getting married, he keeps having to save people from thugs, and finds himself falling for the girl he helped at the airport.
Maybe Islamabad isn't the place for the best vacation after all.
But when Maha and Adam meet each other again under the beautiful Peshawar sky, some whispered dua'as do come true.

"I'd even find you among a crowd of hundred people." "𝐾𝑎𝑛𝑗𝑜𝑜𝑠 𝑘𝑎ℎ𝑖𝑛 𝑘𝑦! Crowd of hundred people, 𝑡𝑢𝑚 value 𝑏𝑎𝑟ℎ𝑎𝑛𝑦 𝑘𝑦 𝑙𝑖𝑦𝑒 million 𝑏ℎ𝑖 𝑘𝑒ℎ 𝑠𝑎𝑘𝑡𝑦 𝑡ℎ𝑦." Judgement is a discourse of narrow foresight. Which has yet to die in this "post-modern" century, despite the "conventional" descent. Sometimes you meet someone, and it's so clear that the two of you, on some level belong together. As lovers, or as friends, or as family, or as something entirely different. You just work, whether you understand one another or you're in love or you're partners in crime. You meet these people throughout your life, out of nowhere, under the strangest circumstances, and they help you feel alive. You don't know if that's a mere coincidence, or fate, or sheer blind luck, but it definitely is something meant to happen. Something like that happened to these two wounded souls, who were walking on a lost path, until they both collided, as if the universe made them lose their way just for them to meet, because they knew the way to each other's right path. They had to have each other to reach their destination. Their lives were sealed together and souls were intertwined. Shaheer Junejo didn't expect the intoxicating beauty to be the key to his revenge game, and Gule Shah didn't know the hunky beast was holding onto her for a completely different plot twist, not for the delusional reason she thought to be love.Concluida
