Sacrifice

The burden of expectation was pressing down on Naseeka from the day she was born. As a daughter, her duty was to marry well and ensure she did not dishonour her family. As an Australian born seventeen-year-old, all she wanted was to follow her dreams to become a speech therapist and live her best life. But her family had other plans for her, plans that didn't take into consideration her hopes and dreams. She was expected to marry overseas just days after her eighteenth birthday. Feeling the weight of family pressure crushing her like an avalanche and desperate to break away and take control of her own destiny, Naseeka must find a way to live her best life and avoid the fate that would bind her to a stranger on the other side of the world.
