Aaliya never imagined stepping into the shadows of a world that wasn’t hers—until Faris Al-Fayez. Cold, untouchable, and carrying sins heavier than the night, he is a man with blood on his hands and secrets in his eyes. Aaliya is everything he isn’t—devout, determined, and dangerously out of place in his world.

"You don’t belong here, sweetheart."
"And yet, here I am."

She only wanted answers, but Faris doesn’t do favors for free. Caught between faith and desire, love and destruction, Aaliya finds herself pulled deeper into the storm that is him. But when the past comes knocking and enemies close in, she and Faris must make a choice—walk away or risk losing everything, including each other.

A gripping story of forbidden love, faith, and a man who was never meant to be hers.
