Description
When Naila’s immigrant Pakistani parents announce that they will choose her husband, her future feels predetermined—until a single night at prom shatters the life she thought she was building. Caught between love, secrecy, and family expectations, Naila is pulled into an unwanted marriage that forces her to confront what freedom costs and what survival demands. Written with urgency and emotional clarity, this novel explores themes of agency, cultural pressure, identity, and the dangerous gap between fate and choice. As Naila fights to reclaim her voice, the story asks whether destiny is something we inherit—or something we dare to rewrite.
