Who We Are
Stories that stick, you know the ones your little one will carry into tomorrow and repeat? Rhymes you hum at bedtime, silly lines that spark the giggles, and gentle tales that warm the heart.
These are the books that shape small worlds and big dreams.
At Lights & Love Press, we craft stories that linger: lyrical, comforting, and full of wonder. Each title is a cozy nook of imagination where curiosity blooms, kindness grows, and every page invites a quiet, unforgettable moment between you and your child.
That’s the magic we publish.

Duas in the Dark (Releasing 6 June 2026)
Written by Maria Adnan | Illustrated by Anna Belfer
A tender bedtime story that gives children the words to whisper when the day feels heavy or light — simple duas, Allah's beautiful names, and the gentle reminder that they are loved, held, and never alone in the dark.
Because even little hearts have big feelings.
About the Author
Maria Adnan is a Dubai-born writer of Indian heritage, now calling Canada home.
With a background in hospitality marketing and copywriting, she has always believed in the power of the right words — to move people, to comfort them, to stay with them long after the page is turned.
Duas in the Dark began in the quiet hours of the night, written in the glow of a laptop screen to the rhythm of her daughter's breath.
Through her Little Duas, Big Hearts series and Lights & Love Press, Maria hopes to create books that children grow up remembering — stories that transport you back to a time of joy.
