At eighteen, Maryam is a firecracker. She has a sharp mouth and an even sharper wit, though her family loves her for her honesty. Her life revolves around her obsession with culinary arts she doesn't just want to cook, she wants to revolutionize the food industry and own a world-class restaurant.
Maryam was a skeptic of romance until she met Alamin. She gave him her heart completely, only to have it shattered when she caught him in the arms of her best friend. That betrayal turned her heart to stone.
She made a vow: Love is a distraction I can no longer afford.
As Maryam tries to bury her pain in her recipes, her world starts to crumble. Family secrets begin to leak out financial struggles, hidden pasts, and rivalries create a storm of drama at home, making her dream of opening a restaurant feel further away than ever.
Enter Fareed, a 26-year-old architectural prodigy. As the eldest son of a powerful family, he is used to being in control. He is cold, commands every room he enters, and possesses a tongue just as sharp as Maryam's.
When their paths cross, it's instant friction. Fareed finds her stubborn....Maryam finds him arrogant. However, Fareed sees a spark in her that he can't ignore. For the second time in his life, the man who is a no-nonsense falls hard.
Together, they face many challenges on their journey.
