"Ibteda-e-Ishq" - every love story has a beginning, but not every beginning is as quietly powerful as theirs.
In a world where love is often loud and fleeting, this is a story of hearts that find each other through faith, patience, and quiet longing. It's not about stolen glances or forbidden touches, but about two souls who grow closer under the warmth of halal boundaries, where respect speaks louder than words, and actions are more romantic than gestures.
As life weaves its trials and blessings around them, they learn that love isn't always instant-it's a journey. A journey of understanding, sacrifice, and emotional growth. Of finding peace in simplicity. Of starting again, the right way.
A slice-of-life romance rooted in desi culture, tender values, and everyday beauty-"Ibteda-e-Ishq" is not just a love story, it's a beginning you won't forget.

Her First-ISHQ
Her First-ISHQ Six hearts. Three stories. One emotion: ISHQ, the kind that scars and heals at the same time. 𖹭 YUSRA X DANISH (Love after Redemption) She remembered his voice before his name. He returned to faith... not knowing ISHQ was already waiting in the quiet. Two hearts that met on very different paths, only to find home in each other. Tropes: -SHE FELL FIRST BUT HE FELL HARDER -LOVE AT FIRST SIGHT -ARRANGED MARRIAGE 𖹭 AMAYAH X SHAYAN (Second Chances in Silence) She lived for her child. She wasn't looking for love.

Tropes: -SECOND CHANCE LOVE -REVERSE AGE GAP -SLOW BURN 𖹭 LAIRA X RAYYAN (The Almost) He entered her life like a question. And left like a lesson. Not every spark becomes a flame and not every heart is hers to keep. Tropes: -BITTERSWEET TENSION -WRONG TIME WRONG RHYTHM -LOVE TRIANGLE Yusra is soft like prayer, yet her silence hides a storm no one sees. "Will she ever get to live in his heart?" Amayah believed in fairytales, until reality tears her pages apart. "Will she ever understand the things which are already written?" Laira is all fire and freedom, but will she ever let someone love her past the flames?. "Will she ever stop blaming herself for others deeds?" And the men who walked in not to complete them, but to remind them they were whole all along. And some to remind them that 'not every love story has a happy ending'. In a world where love is whispered through glances, and hearts break in sujood comes a tale of three journeys, one emotion, and the kind of ISHQ that stays long after it's gone. A tale of halal love, heartbreak, healing and the kind of faith that only grows in the dark. ╰┈➤GENRE -Halal Romance -Contemporary Fiction -Emotional Drama -Multi-Couple Story Continue reading to know their aches and cures!!!
My Surgeon Wife
Sanjay Malhotra is everything a girl's parents dream of-young, rich, powerful, and impeccably mannered. As the chairman of the multi-billion-dollar Malhotra Group, he lives in a world of numbers, boardrooms, and luxury-far from love, feelings, or family warmth. A man of few words, and even fewer smiles. Dr. Ria Sharma, on the other hand, is Mumbai's rising neurosurgeon-brilliant, bold, and kind-hearted. Her world is filled with patients, night shifts, and chai breaks with her middle-class yet loving family. They meet for the first time through an arranged proposal-two strangers from different worlds, bound together by tradition. Marriage wasn't their dream. But understanding, companionship, and something deeper... slowly begins to bloom. A feel-good, slow-paced love story of two people who learn to trust, open up, and fall in love-after marriage. Because sometimes, strangers can become soulmates-if the heart is patient enough.
