The Unwanted Marriage
Veil Of Truth Series (Book 1) "Amina, a devout niqabi Muslim and final-year medical student from India, has always held her faith close. She has come to London to complete her studies, but life takes a turn when she finds herself in an arranged marriage with Zayd, a wealthy Londoner. Zayd, however, is a name-only Muslim-disillusioned, detached, and burdened by the weight of his wealth and an embittered view of the world. Their marriage was orchestrated by Zayd's mother, who hopes Amina's piety will reignite her son's lost connection to faith. But Zayd resents the arrangement, convinced that Amina somehow manipulated his mother into this union. Now, under the same roof yet worlds apart, Amina and Zayd navigate the palpable tension between them. Will their forced bond soften their differences, or will it only widen the chasm in their hearts, leaving them further apart than ever before? A story of faith, conflict, and resilience, this tale explores whether two people from vastly different worlds can ever find common ground-or if destiny has a different path for them entirely."
