Get Him Out of Your Curls - Meet Areej (on Wattpad) https://www.wattpad.com/1642779026-get-him-out-of-your-curls-meet-areej?utm_source=web&utm_medium=tumblr&utm_content=share_reading&wp_uname=goarwago "She feeds the city with her hands. But who will ever feed her soul?" Areej has never been anyone's dream girl - not in her family, not in her dating history, and certainly not in the mirror. She's 33, curvy, Lebanese-Mexican, and the proud owner of one of New York's most beloved café spots. Her food? Famous. Her confidence? Selective. Her love life? Let's not. She's been rejected, forgotten, and betrayed one too many times. So now, her only vows are to her oven, her regulars, and the smell of fresh bread that fills the mornings. That is, until Matthew, the polished lawyer with Henry Cavill charm, starts noticing more than just her tuna sandwiches... and Bassel, the handsome Syrian doctor with kind eyes and old-world depth, walks in asking for her shawarma - and maybe more. Torn between past wounds, cultural pressures, and a growing storm of feelings she swore she buried years ago, Arej will have to ask herself the one question she's always avoided: What if love isn't a threat... but a choice she deserves to make? This is a story about heartbreak, food, family, and the courage to love yourself first. If you like slow burn, heartfelt banter, messy emotions, protective grandmothers, real women, and two unexpected rivals trying (and failing) to stay cool... welcome home.
