After the first two books in the reluctant romances series, it was beautiful to see how Andaleeb has redeemed Kamran’s character. It has been such a graceful metamorphosis from being an ass to being the guy who wears his heart on his sleeves.
I found the change of scenery from the usual Starville Tower to be refreshing too. The outdoor conference, London etc were an enjoyable change of pace.
Ayman’s feelings could not have been brought
out in a better manner and my chest tightened painfully when she was hurt.
I love how Andaleeb keeps the emotions real and brings out the earnestness of human complexities with such ease.
Always a pleasure reading her stories.

Is it enough to be second-best when it comes to the love of your life?
Ayman has loved Kamran for what feels like forever but he's only just noticed her. Working at the same company, living in the same building and moving in the same social circle, keeping their fledgling relationship a secret is torture. What's more, they're both keeping secrets from each other that can potentially harm whatever they have together.
There is only one thing left to do; come clean so they can start planning their life together.
But just as things start to fall into place, their lives fall apart around them. Kamran needs to rush to London for a family emergency so he can pick up the pieces of his family's life. Ayman's always perfect sister, Tazeen, announces she's splitting up with her even more perfect husband, leaving Ayman's family shattered.
And that's not even the worst of it. For Ayman discovers that she is not Kamran's first love...Tazeen is!
Can Ayman settle for being second best to the only man she's ever loved? Can Kamran overcome the horror of his abusive childhood and piece together this future with Ayman? And most importantly, can he convince her, that to him she's never been second best? That she will always be The One?

A win on mistrust, vulnerability and misunderstanding
Reviewed in India on 26 January 2022
"May Be This Time" is 3rd book in the reluctant romances series by Andaleeb Wajid and as usual the script is great. Wonderful plot, amazing flow, beautiful closure and yes I liked it totally.Kamraan an ambitious guy with great values and amazing personality but a sour family background which kills him from inside every single day. His father is a devil man who believes beating his wife n children is his right and he can always have that right no matter what.Ayman a bright, happy, full of life girl with family values and an amazing friend circle totally in love with kamraan.Slowly the love blossom but suddenly kamran's family experience bad incident and things change for them. And the misunderstanding which happened to be unleashed at wrong time makes it even harder.But their story will make you believe that no matter what the circumstances are, misunderstanding, mistrust and vulnerability, love can win and it will for sure. A true love can make it happen.The best part of Andaleeb's writing is she writes about real life characters with so much relatable content that you engrossed in her work like it's your own story. And her series have such a smooth transition of characters in each others story that gives that perfect blend to it. I wanted more of it but the end came real soon but no worries I m sure there is more to come in the series ( Tazeen, Rida, Iqra)Tazeen's story also plays an important role in the series and it has a very great essence of it's own. I m sure one day will get to read her story too 🤞.

I said in my last review that these books are so close to reality you feel as if it just happened in your neighbourhood, but but this is not just a book they should be tag as Life lessons what Jawad and Tasneem has faced is is what is faced by many couples in reality the problem is so easily and so smoothly expressed The Neighbours reaction the families reaction so accurately captured many people can learn from this book that it is the communication which is more important between the couples open your mind open your heart and you can see the life Smiles at you lovely the best book I have red sofa hats off andaleeb wajid.
The best line i found in this book is.. " We need to check the water in our tanki.... Love marriages happening left right and center" Hahaha..... Im eagerly waiting for iqra's book.

This series just gets interesting with every new book that is published. So much so that you feel Starville Towers is actually a complex next door and we know the characters personally.
Kamran, the assumed evil guy from book 1 turns out to be a hero for sweet little Ayman. I love the way their story unfolds - their outing, their secret office affair is all exciting to read. The way their feelings have been portrayed is brilliant... This, by far is the best book in the series for me... and now that I know book 4 is already out, I can't wait to read Tazeen and Jawad's story soon

Kamran and ayman's story was so warm, so much maturity that it showed thru their journey.. kamran's character was a totally heart taking one wt so much confidence, strength and love in his heart. He had them all and he showed the courage to prove it over...Ayman being from a conservative background but her actions ad belief were a surprise.
Andaleeb wajids books are portraying a very positive image of women who being from a Conservative society but are yet independent and confident. This is going to be among those books , that i would be coming back to over n over again. Loved it.

The author has continued her series with yet another unique love story, the heroine and hero Ayman and Kamran fall in love naturally. The progression of their relationship is very realistic, so are the misunderstandings and issues around family that arise. The author has also sensitively dealt with the topic of domestic violence and added layers to the experiences of the characters. The locations in the book are characters unto their own, especially the experiences unique to the city.

There is something to be said for reading a romance that is as relatable as it is sweet and angsty. Andaleeb's trademark style of writing about characters like you and me and giving them the romance of their dreams is what I look forward to every time I pick up one of her books.
