Meher Mirza has always been sunshine in human form-talkative, cheerful, and impossible to ignore. Her biggest worries are university assignments and deciding which Urdu novel to read next.

Haider Mirza, on the other hand, is everything she is not. A powerful CEO, ten years older than her, cold, calculating, and feared by everyone around him.

When a family decision ties them together in an arranged marriage, Meher finds herself trapped with the one man she has spent years teasing and avoiding.

Haider has rules. Meher hates rules.

Haider wants control. Meher values her freedom.

But as hidden family secrets begin to surface and danger closes in, Meher discovers that Haider's possessiveness hides truths he has never spoken aloud.

In a marriage neither of them expected, hearts are tested, loyalties are questioned, and love becomes far more dangerous than either of them imagined.

Will Meher break down the walls around Haider's heart, or will the darkness surrounding their family destroy them both?
