"Once in a while, in the middle of an ordinary life, love gives us a fairytale," said the books she lived on. Kaureen Mahmoud, is a nerd who encompasses a plethora of surprises within herself; left unveiled and unaddressed as per the ritual. An avid believer of love and a greater preacher of pragmatism, what will happen when this fantasizer rams into the reality of love, lust, expectations and pain. When monumental sins become way too appealing, what will be the breath that will save her from drowning?

P.S. This is not your standard love story where bad boy falls for a pious girl and regains deep seated conscience; or two perfect Muslims fall in love and get married after battling with insecurities, adversaries and drama. I've delved into something different and it would be the greatest honor if you find it worth your time.

[BLURB] "Well, now I'm back and I'm gonna drag you to court, you piece of shite," she said before passing a humorless chortle. "Do that and you're doomed." He sniggered, his manevolent gaze hurling obscenities towards her. "Oh yeah? How?" She rose a perfect eyebrow, animosity etched on each lineament. "Let's just say, I have something of yours that'll destroy you." The telltale monstrosity perceptible in his evil kingdom of eyes set a havoc inside her adrenaline rushing body but she held her grounds strong. "And what's that?" And there he showed her something that choked the life out of her frail body as she lost her balance in dizziness. ****** Love is elusive but sometimes it knocks right at your door but you're too arrogant to pay it any heed or maybe too scared to acknowledge it. Either way, destiny always knows how to play its part well. You can ignore it but can never run away from it. It never lets you evade itself and follows you everywhere, like a shadow. Crooning and spreading its arms right open at you, enveloping you from every nook, cajoling you, brandishing your tattered soul, and enticing you to the point where you have to surrender and accept it. Where you have to hold on to it and let everything else go. Because sometimes all a ragged soul and a chasm heart need is a pint of love. The tale of two youngsters who kept finding their way towards each other no matter how hard they tried to ignore it. Life would always collide their paths. Always making up their minds to never see each other again to always bumping on each other, destiny already had something else in store for them. So what was it? A journey of loathing to love. A journey of holding on and letting go.

Arranged Marriage. It's what most Muslims go though, and Afghans are no exception. For Afghan's there is no such thing as 'love marriage'. Well, at least for most of them there isn't. Through generations parents have arranged marriages for their child with a close relative or friend, and the child has nothing left but to agree. Twenty-two year old Negina is left in the same situation. When her parents broke the news to her, Negina is devastated and all she wants to do is die. Dear reader, you've probably heard at least one person say negative things about themselves. Am I right? Well, Negina thinks the same way. She's not beautiful like all her cousins and sister. Impossible to even imagine what she went through in school. All the girls wore makeup and shorts with crop tops and high heels. But Negina's parents are against all of that. Only after graduating high school she was aloud to wear makeup. Shorts? Crop tops? "Never in a million years." Is always her parents answer. But now she's getting married to Khalid Malik. Negina has heard many stories about 'love after nikah' yet when she meets her fiancé for the first time she's more than surprised to see his reaction, and the circumstances she has to live with may be unbearable. ||7/28/18 ~ #25 in #spiritual||

Fix me (COMPLETED) #Wattys2016 by Ronymacaronni

Highest ranking, #1 in spiritual ( 10/7/2016 ) until ( 5/ 9/ 2016 ). How can you fix something that's already been broken, several times? I am damaged, used and repulsive... I am nothing, just simply unfixable. Or at least that's what people told me. I've kept to myself for a long time now until I met someone who is just as unfixable as me. I am Layla and this is my story. * Layla Joseph and Adam Hayek cross paths at the most unexpected time. They make a deal, they decide to get married for their own selfish reasons. Put two strangers in one house and see what happens... one of them is a first class bipolar asshole who has no faith left, while the other one is a sweet, fragile girl with baggage in the form of a little angel, who happens to be strengthening her faith. Both are broken... unfixable they say and both have a past that haunts them. A marriage of convenience is what they had in mind... But will there be more or will they let their pasts get in the middle and drive them away from each other, leaving them yet again unfixable? ******* Romance/Spiritual Warning! This book will most probably contain mature language at some point. This book is not meant to be preaching about islam, rather its a book about characters who happen to be muslims struggling with their faith and life. It's a FICTIONAL book, my imagination did the work for me. Anything else could be a coincidence. I DONT OWN ANY OF THE PHOTOS USED IN THIS BOOK. I'm not a perfect Muslimah and this book isn't a perfect Islamic book either. Please have an open mind when you read this book. Thank you.
