The Name We Choose: A Love Story That Asked the World to Choose Again

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ “A Quiet Fire That Kept Burning”

“This is not just a novel. It’s a permission slip. Auren and Sahana will stay with me for a very long time.” — Mira K., Interfaith Educator & Mother

What if love could rewrite the stories we inherit?

When Auren Solven, the introspective son of a devout Lebanese Muslim family, meets Sahana Raye, a bold and brilliant woman from a Jewish Indian lineage shaped by tradition and loss, their connection quietly defies centuries of expectation. In a world still divided by borders both visible and invisible—faith, history, culture—they fall in love. Gently. Fiercely. Unapologetically.

But when tragedy strikes in their ancestral homelands, Auren and Sahana are torn apart, each grappling with what it means to belong to beliefs they no longer fully hold. In search of meaning beyond the binaries they’ve inherited, they embark on parallel spiritual journeys—through Morocco, India, Jerusalem, Istanbul—encountering sacred places, kind strangers, and the quiet power of choosing for themselves.

Reunited by more than love—by vision—they launch The One Path Project, a global movement that invites children to explore all spiritual traditions before choosing their own. What begins as a radical idea soon ignites global dialogue—and resistance. As support swells and backlash mounts, Auren and Sahana must confront one final question: Can love that redefined the past also reimagine the future?

For readers of The Forty Rules of Love, A Place for Us, and The Midnight Library, this is a deeply intimate and boldly visionary novel about the stories we’re born into—and the ones we choose to live.
