At 22, Harshita Gupta lives a quiet, sheltered life with her father and sharp-tongued younger sister-who never misses a chance to ridicule her public image or her full-figured, plus-size body. But Harshita has learned to find peace in her small joys. Gentle, soft-spoken, and determined, she dreams of becoming a teacher and living a life of dignity. When her younger sister announces a trip with friends, their conservative father flatly refuses-until he reluctantly agrees, on one condition: Harshita must go along as a chaperone. What was meant to be a simple getaway turns into something else entirely. Her sister abandons her at every turn, treating her like an embarrassment. Harshita, though hurt, stays composed-until the day she unexpectedly crosses paths with him. The man who once humiliated her. The man who made her feel small in ways words couldn't capture. She had sworn to avoid him forever. But there he is again-dangerously attractive, exuding charm and intensity. And despite every promise she made to herself, Harshita feels an undeniable pull toward him. Against her better judgment, she gives in. What follows, however, is not a fairytale. Something terrible happens-something that breaks her spirit and shatters her trust. Overwhelmed by shame, pain, and betrayal, Harshita vanishes-cutting ties with everyone and everything she once knew.

Her father wants to send her back to class. And she? She just wants to breathe-preferably somewhere far away from multiple-choice questions and kota-style expectations.

Their second? A lot of shouting. Their third? Well-he's still recovering. He thinks she's a walking distraction with glitter in her hair and zero respect for silence.

Just one chaotic girl, one emotionally constipated man, and a string of unfortunate coincidences that keep throwing them together. She was never part of his routine. He was never part of her future. But some chapters don't come printed in books.

3rd book in 'Interfaith Series'. ----------------------------------------------------- We've all heard tales of men with broken pasts-hearts shattered by the loss of someone dear, trust crushed by betrayal, childhoods devoid of love, or lives abandoned to loneliness and despair. Perhaps they were scarred by failure, haunted by guilt, or weighed down by unspoken regrets. But what if this man's brokenness doesn't come from these familiar tragedies? What if his pain stems from something far darker, harsher-something so cruel that it defies imagination? A secret so chilling that no one dares to guess its origin. This is not just a story of suffering; it's a descent into the unknown-a place where shadows breathe, and the unimaginable becomes real. This is the story of ZAYN-a man who has witnessed horrors beyond belief and become something even more unfathomable. A soul forged in darkness, sworn to protect lives and mend the broken, yet unable to heal himself. And then, she arrives-his ANGEL-stepping into his shadowed world, seeking refuge from her own tragic past. But fate has its own plans. In trying to heal herself, she becomes the balm to his unspoken wounds. Two shattered souls, drawn together by fate, bound by pain-will they find salvation in each other, or will the darkness consume them both?
