Between Pride and HeartIn the bustling city of Kano, where tradition meets ambition, two worlds collide.Aminu Bello wealthy, confident, and untouchable has never had to prove himself to anyone. Born into a powerful family, he’s used to respect, obedience, and winning without struggle.Zahra Yusuf hardworking, determined, and fiercely independent knows that life doesn’t hand you success; you fight for it. Juggling university classes and a part-time job at a provisions shop, she has no time for arrogance or entitled attitudes.When a strict professor forces them to work together for the prestigious inter-university business competition, sparks fly and not the romantic kind. From sarcastic jabs in the classroom to heated arguments over project ideas, they seem to agree on only one thing: they can’t stand each other.But as deadlines close in, Zahra begins to see cracks in Aminu’s flawless armor hints of loss, loneliness, and a heart he’s kept hidden. And when illness strikes, threatening to break the wall between them, both must confront the truth: pride is easy, but trust is hard… and love is harder.Set against the vibrant backdrop of Kano’s streets, markets, and university halls, Between Pride and Heart is a Muslim-friendly hate-to-love romance filled with witty clashes, heartfelt moments, and a reminder that sometimes, the heart chooses what pride would never allow.
