Love Beyond the Dowry

Love should never come with a price.Zara Ahmed has always believed that a woman's worth cannot be measured in gold, furniture, cash, or family status.

He is quiet, educated, and respectful, and he appears to understand that love cannot begin with a demand. But when family expectations, social pressure, pride, and hidden conditions begin to rise around them, Zara must decide whether trust is enough-or whether dignity must come before the promise of love.As two families stand on opposite sides of tradition and conscience, Zara and Imran are forced to confront a painful question: can true love survive when society tries to put a price on a bride?Love Beyond the Dowry is a clean contemporary social issue romance about family pressure, women's dignity, moral courage, and a love strong enough to stand against expectation.
