Crazy Little Thing Called Love (Sun Tower Series, 3)

Once, Zinneerah Arain was that girl. With a voice of a blues legend, and a persona of an ‘80s rockstar, she was the heartbeat of every party. Now, she’s Zinneerah Shaan—silenced by vocal cord paralysis after an abusive relationship, bound in a marriage she thinks she doesn’t deserve, and with her confidence buried somewhere alongside the guitar she swore she’d never play again.

Outside, he’s Professor Raees, the aloof media journalism lecturer known for being annoyingly good (looking) at his job. But at home, he’s a golden retriever in human form—an overly optimistic chatter-bug, armed with a sweet tooth that’s borderline absurd thanks to his wife’s baking. Yet underneath his charms are scars from a cruel childhood. Oh, and a truth he can’t ignore: he’s been in love with Zinneerah for years. And figuring out how to be her husband is a battle he’s willing to win.

Together, they’re like a half-written song—clunky lyrics, a little offbeat, and stuck in a slow tempo. But if they can stop letting the past play lead guitar, they’ll figure out how to create something new for themselves. Sure, it might not be perfect, but the best songs never are.
