When a 16-year-old Desi girl and a 22-year-old Arab man are pushed into an arranged marriage by their deeply religious families, both find themselves caught in a situation they never asked for-and definitely weren't ready for.
She's still navigating teenage mood swings and awkward silences.
He's busy pretending he has everything under control.
Neither of them wanted this.
And both quietly hoped the other would say no.
But now, under the same roof and under everyone's expectations, two strangers must learn to survive a marriage built on pressure, misunderstandings, and everything unsaid.
A slow-burn, lighthearted romance rooted in faith, miscommunication, and two hearts learning how to grow up-and maybe, grow toward each other.
