Tahira Mahmoud never imagined her life would unravel into a public scandal, not when she was focused on her internship and building her future.
Zayyad Ibrahim, a successful architect and divorcee, has spent years protecting his heart and his family with rigid control. But when duty, whispers, and tradition corner him, he finds himself married to Tahira... a girl he has only ever seen as a sister.
What begins as an unwanted obligation soon shifts into something, neither of them expected: lingering glances that last too long, teasing that feels too familiar, and a protective tenderness that refuses to be ignored.
Tahira begins to realize that love, in all its quiet beauty, can bloom even in the places she never thought to look.
And Zayyad? He's starting to discover that the one marriage he never wanted may be the one thing he can't walk away from.

At twenty-four, he's the university's golden boy with a notorious reputation and a nickname that fits too well: the Sarcasm Lord. He doesn't chase things... things chase him. Until he met her. Dr. Aneesa Ibrahim Pape, twenty-seven, elegant, composed, and far too serious for her own good, becomes his lecturer - and the only woman he can't charm with a smirk. To her, Ayyan is just another arrogant, spoiled brat who needs to grow up. To him, she's the woman who made his world tilt off balance with a single glance. When his teasing turns to persistence and her indifference turns to hidden turmoil, the line between right and wrong begins to blur. Aneesa's family was already on her neck for being unmarried at twenty-seven, but falling for her student is the last thing she can afford. Yet Ayyan doesn't take no for an answer - not when it comes to love. Behind his sarcasm lies sincerity; behind her restraint, longing. Their story is one of forbidden glances, unspoken emotions, and a love that laughs in the face of reason - but can even the boldest heart survive when society, family, and time all say no?Complete
