‎‎Meher is a very quiet and introverted girl. In school, she has no friends, no group, and no one to talk to. She often sits alone, eats alone, and feels invisible. Studies are difficult for her, and slowly she starts believing that she is not good enough at anything. School gives her more fear than memories. She learns early how to survive alone. ‎ Then Viraj enters her life. ‎ The son of her father's friend. Her neighbour. And slowly... her only friend. ‎ Viraj is everything Meher is not-confident, extroverted, smart, and a school topper who fits easily into the world around him. ‎ He sat beside her when no one else did. Walked with her when silence felt heavy. Studied with her when she doubted herself the most. Somewhere between shared pencils, late evenings, growing pressure, and unspoken understanding, Viraj became the only place where Meher felt safe. ‎ He became her comfort. ‎ And without even realizing when or how, Meher falls deeply in love with him. ‎ But love is never simple. ‎ Will Meher ever find the courage to confess her feelings? Does Viraj feel the same... or does he see her only as a friend? And what happens when life, careers, and dreams start pulling them in different directions? ‎ Never Mine is a slow-burn, emotional story of deep love, quiet feelings, self-doubt, and growing up-a story about emotions that are never spoken, but felt deeply in the heart. ‎ Note: This story contains no toxicity, no cheating, and no toxic men. Every character is written with respect, emotional depth, and human flaws - not cruelty. This is a safe, soft story focused on healing, growth, and mature love.

Where she confidently slides into his dms thinking he's her dating app match, only to realise two messages too late that he's not; just a very random, very willing stranger who decides to play along anyway. Here names don't matter, truths are optional, and flirting is a little too easy for two people who are absolutely not supposed to be talking.

Book #1 of the Stars Series. ~She taught him to speak out loud He taught her to hear the silence~ ✨ "Do you remember, What the hell did you do Miss Ananya Rajput?" He said and ran his fingers through his hair. "Way to ruin his styled hair" the devil side inside me spoke. "He did that in frustration" the angel side argued. "Whatever the reason was, what he did was very hot" the perverted side of me was all ready to swoon. I shook my head and these three sides with their respective thoughts vanished. "What did I do now? "I asked cluelessly and he narrowed his eyes. "Because of what you did yesterday, my parents believe that you are my secret girlfriend "What nonsense!" Those are his favourite words. " Those are my favourite words! " I thought and he spoke at the same time. " But what did I do yesterday? " * Ananya Rajput, a carefree soul who likes to live her life the way she wants to. She might act too happy, she might be too crazy for this world, but at the end she was also deeply wounded by people she called her family, throughout her life. ❝We are on the earth to spread some love...and some cookies?❞ Sahil Khurana, a boy who cares about every small thing, and makes it right. Perfectionist is what they call him, but at the end he is tired of trying. A break up from his ex girlfriend of over 4 years was adding pain to his wounds. But acting like we are happy, is what we do in life. ❝When life doesn't make any sense, you're going right❞ And when this carefree Ananya meets the overthinker Sahil, The consequences leads them to date, Oops, fake date! But in this process, their broken part heals, Sparks flies, And Their Stars Align. The book can start off with some badly written grammar but I promise it gets better as you go on, if not the best. It's a silly little book with a simple plot and crack head characters. <3 Started : 15/04/2023 Status : 25/03/2024

In the blaze of revenge, in the fire of hate, a poetry is born that changes the verses of his life. Once ladened with darkness of lies, the light of truth illuminates his being but to his misfortune, it happens too late. So late that she has already been punished in the name of revenge. But is it truly a punishment or just a play of destiny to bring two lovers together? A battle started between two fathers but fought between their children. A story of revenge that takes an abrupt turn when love begins to blossom, but the truth still remains buried. And until this fog of lie lingers between them, their love will remain lost in the mist. When she doesn't know herself the reason of this revenge, how will she bring him out of the haze of misconception? When he is ardent to seek revenge, how will love simmer him down? A lie, a truth, a pain, a sorrow, a loss, a win, a blessing, a sin. A story of misunderstood revenge and a painful love, Dhundle Rang: The Haze of Love. When times tests you, then hold onto the poem of life because what conquers it all is love in the end.

He asked, his piercing gaze meeting hers through the mirror. His one hand was resting on her stomach, keeping her close to him while the other one touched her head. "This-" He moved the finger from her head to her heart. "-this-" He pulled her closer from his other hand. "-your whole fūcking being, belongs with me, get that?" He asked, raising her chin to make her look in the mirror. She should push him away, she should be telling him how much she hates him but she found herself nodding. "Words." He pressed. "Yes," She mumbled. "What's your name?" "Roop." "What's your name?" He asked again, pronouncing each word clearly this time. "Roop Mehrotra." "Roop. Amrit. Mehrotra." His jaw tightened, "Say it." "Roop Amrit Mehrotra." She breathed out, trying to get away from him but his grip was firm. "Right, and it's going to stay just like that." ••• Two people, one unwanted marriage.
