Hi there. Big Big Fan. To be honest I must confess I thought the book was going to be so cliche considering the topic but I was really impressed. I'm just curious though, what inspired you to write a story about a Muslim prince and a Christian woman ove coming adversity ? :) (FYI I'm dying to read book 2 !!!!!)

Thank you so much for your kind words.

Well, I really love writing stories about forbidden love, when the hero and heroine could never be together, not easily anyway.
I love the struggle, etc.
In fact, Black Keys was originally about a Muslim girl falling for a Christian man. It was to be Janna and Joseph's story. A story that I plotted almost seven years ago. But then, I found that Marie and Mazen had louder voices and I couldn't wait to have their story written.

So, their story was born from Joseph and Janna's.

I'm still going to have the siblings tell their story as well, this is a part of the reasons why I'm not going in so many details about Joseph and Janna in the trilogy, they'll have their own book later. :)

Thank you for reading. <3 (less)

“No, you don't know what it's like
When nothing feels all right
You don't know what it's like
To be like me
To be hurt
To feel lost
To be left out in the dark
To be kicked when you're down
To feel like you've been pushed around
To be on the edge of breaking down
And no one's there to save you
No, you don't know what it's like
Welcome to my life”
― Simple Plan
