Her Gentle Jihad

Three stories. One family. No one gets out unchanged.



Emris Varlowe doesn't believe in love. A notorious heartbreaker with charm and chaos in equal measure, he lives by his own rules-until he meets Aisha Farooq. She's sharp, composed, and immune to everything he throws at her. When their rivalry explodes in a university debate hall, what begins as intellectual warfare becomes something far more personal-and impossible to walk away from.



Years later, Aisha and Emris have built a life wrapped in quiet storms and complicated love. But their children carry their own battles.



Sofia, quiet and disciplined, finds herself reluctantly tutored by Daelen Reeve-an aloof university senior with shadows behind his calm. She only wants to pass commerce. He only wants to finish the job. But late-night sessions turn into something deeper, something neither of them dares to name.

ara, their adopted daughter, moves through the world unnoticed-but never unaffected. Witty, perceptive, and fiercely loyal, she wrestles with belonging in a family that loves loudly but often looks right past her.



Meanwhile, Jungkook Farooq-the family's high-achieving son and rising CEO-returns from abroad burned out by ambition. But in the chaos of his carefully constructed life, he finds something

S unexpected: a woman who challenges his view of loyalty, ambition, and the kind of love he never thought he needed.



Her Gentle Jihad is a layered exploration of emotional rebellion, inner transformation, and the slow-burning relationships that change us most-whether we want them to or not.
