The Sufi's Serenade
Music was his life, flowing through his veins like blood. She was always immersed in his music. His heart had been broken once, and since then, he had never truly connected with anyone. He had millions of admirers. But she only loved one. What will happen when these two travelers, walking completely different paths, collide? This is the story of a poet whose heart was shattered, yet a pair of mesmerizing, doe-like eyes gave him a reason to live again, rekindling his love for his art. And of a girl who never imagined that her marriage would be arranged with her favorite Sufi singer. Together, they embraced their love, living it fully, and learned to truly love each other after marriage.
