And they've already seen her.

After losing her father, 23-year-old Yusrah finds herself trapped in a life that no longer feels like hers - suffocated under the roof of a cruel stepmother and cornered into a marriage she never asked for. With no job, no support, and no escape, her only way out becomes an arranged marriage to a man she's never met... a man whose silence is louder than any vow. Zafar Malik is still grieving - not loudly, but in the quiet, haunting ways only a broken man can. A father first, a CEO second, and a widower always, Zafar has locked his past behind a door no one enters. But when his parents choose Yusrah as a bride for him - a soft-spoken girl with no voice in the matter - he's forced to confront the life he's buried, the daughter he's struggling to raise, and a future he's not sure he wants. She didn't ask for him. He didn't want her. But in a house full of silence, grief, and aching, something begins to grow - slowly, painfully - between a girl learning to breathe and a man trying to remember how. This isn't a love story built on butterflies. It's a story of sacrifice. Of duty. Of aching hearts and second chances. Of a woman becoming a wife in a stranger's home... ... and a man discovering that even after grief, love might still have room to bloom.

Behind The Glasses by BeverleyLanga

He's the shy nerd everyone underestimates. She's the fearless player who always gets what she wants. When they're paired for a school project, Aria can't resist teasing Zane, keeping him on edge with every comment-but behind closed doors, everything changes. What starts as an ordinary assignment becomes a battle of wits, temptation, and magnetic tension. In public, Zane is timid and careful; behind closed doors, he's intoxicatingly daring-and Aria might be the first girl who can't resist him. As attraction turns to obsession, lessons blur into desire, and the line between control and surrender disappears. Will Aria's confidence survive Zane's secret side-or will she fall completely, willingly, for the quiet boy who knows exactly how to seduce her? One assignment. One classroom. One dangerous, irresistible attraction.
