Money buys freedom. Unless someone finds out where it came from.

On her fortieth birthday, Harriet realizes something terrifying: her life looks secure - but none of it is actually hers. Her partner has assets. Her friends have safety nets. Harriet has… nothing.

So she writes a book. An anonymous manuscript. It's a quiet confession, a calculated move. When it explodes into a bestseller, the money changes everything. Freedom. Leverage. Options.

Until people start asking questions: A colleague watching too closely. A partner who notices every purchase. A city built on image and gossip.

If anyone connects Harriet to the book, she could lose her job, her relationship - everything.

And Harriet doesn’t lose. She plans. She controls. And she’s willing to go further than anyone thinks to protect her secret.

Step into the dazzling world of Dubai with Not The Woman You Think, where one woman’s secret bestseller unravels her carefully curated life. The novel is a razor-sharp exploration of ambition, autonomy, and the hidden costs of modern relationships.
