When Maha leaves behind the suffocating expectations of her family back in Dhaka for a scholarship at Trinity College in Edinburgh, she imagines freedom will taste like silence, solitude, and study. But her world is upended the day she meets Sam - a rugged, kind-hearted Scotsman with eyes full of curiosity and a smile that disarms her defenses.
As Maha navigates her first taste of independence in a country so wildly different from her own, Sam becomes both a temptation and a mirror - reflecting back the woman she's slowly becoming. But love, for Maha, is not just complicated - it's forbidden. Her family's rules are absolute. Her father's sacrifices loom large. And when her heart begins to choose Sam over arranged suitors and expectations, everything she's ever known begins to unravel.
Torn between the man she loves and the family she fears losing, Maha must confront what freedom truly costs. And when she's forced to return home - only to be disowned. Can love survive when everything else falls apart?
A story of forbidden love, cultural identity, and the ache of becoming someone new - A Melody of Skin is a slow-burn romance about what happens when two people from different worlds fall in love.

But only one man burns with an obsession he can't control-her husband by nikkah, Taimoor Arsalan Shah. Cold. Powerful. Feared by many. Taimoor never wanted a wife chosen for him. Never wanted the childhood nikkah that tied him to her. Years later, he has built a life of authority, discipline, and unyielding pride. But when Dua walks back into his haveli, draped in innocence and quiet strength, he is struck with a possessiveness he never thought himself capable of. Her lowered lashes and trembling lips make him realize that the girl he once ignored is now the only woman capable of undoing him. She wants freedom. He wants her surrender. And in a world bound by family honor, secrets, and desire- love was never supposed to feel this dangerous.The girl he once rejected is now the woman he cannot let go of-even if it means breaking her heart to claim it. "You were mine before you even knew what marriage meant, Dua. And now... you'll know exactly what it means to belong to me."

We Who Break

The enemy that was a rumor is at the gates, and the only people who can stop it are the four who are quietly planning to destroy one another to do it. One of them will write a thousand names into clay and call it mercy. One of them will walk into a child's room with a blade and a reason that works. One of them will offer up the thing that cannot be replaced. And one of them already knows how this ends, and is doing it anyway. There is a night coming when the oaths go silent, and anything can be unmade. Three clocks are ticking toward it. None of them are coincidence. Love won't save them. Being right won't save them.
