The Perfect Bow - Paperback

by Samirah Zaman (Author)

You are cordially invited into the marriage ofSumayyah Rahman & Yousef Hasan

Sumayyah was handed the perfect checklist of what life should be: education, career, marriage, and children. Having made her father proud by becoming a doctor, she honoured her mother's wishes by agreeing to an arranged marriage.

Yousef was a simple man who had but one dream: to have a family. With the blessings of his parents, he began his pursuit in search of the perfect bou.

Striving for perfection in all facets of her life, Sumayyah effortlessly stepped into roles she'd spent her whole life preparing for. If only she knew a battle was looming - one that threatened everything Sumayyah had worked towards and jeopardised Yousef's dream.

As she drowns in the expectations set by others, Sumayyah loses herself. With her career now on hold and her marriage hanging in the balance, Sumayyah finds herself torn between the woman she's been taught to be and the woman she wants to be.

Because if there is one thing she'll learn, it is that perfection is anything but attainable.
