How did an angel find love in hell? Zaina Fathima, a 23-year-old trauma surgeon, thought her life was finally settling down. After attending her best friend Aliza's lavish wedding events back home, she boards a flight to Italy for the main celebration-a dreamy cruise along the Mediterranean. But what's supposed to be a fairytale wedding celebration at sea quickly turns into a nightmare. A brutal murder shatters the festivities, and what follows is a descent into a world laced with revenge, obsession, forbidden love-and something far darker. Stained in red, None of her own. She didn't sign up for this. She never asked to be hunted, broken, or burned. Yet here she is-trapped in someone else's story, with no way out. And at the center of it all? Armaan Malik. Ex-army commander. The man she should stay away from. The man who may just break her, or become her only way out. The question isn't whether Zaina will survive this cruise... It's whether she'll make it back with her soul intact...

She's a wild, free spirit who sees the good in everyone, and he's the hardened, bad-tempered loner who wants nothing to do with her-yet no matter how hard he tries to push her away, she's the one temptation he can't escape. *** He's never met someone with such a bubbly personality. Not to mention the wildness and odd phrases she says every five minutes. He hates it. He hates how he can't stay away from it. He hates what she does to him; it's not like him to chase after some girl. She gets under his skin like no other. She's never met someone with such a bad attitude. He's ill-mannered and menacing. The glare never seems to leave his face. Considering it all, she can't help but feel the attraction toward him. Dangerous attraction toward a seemingly dangerous man. Maybe it's the tattoos on his arm that gets her attention. Or maybe it's because she can tell there's hope for good under his rough exterior. And she's about to find it, whether he likes it or not. It's no secret that the two of them are complete and total opposites. *** "You like being called Sugar, don't you?" I tease, placing my toothbrush back after finishing. He does the same and gives me a side-eyed scowl. He grips my chin harshly and kisses me. My body temperature raises a good ten degrees and my right leg goes all wiggly. He pulls away. "You like it when I kiss you, don't you?" He teases the same way I did to him and I'm left blubbering. "I think both of our questions are rhetorical," I lower my voice up at him. His lip curls up into a smirk. *** #1 in Young Adult #9 in Badboy #1 in Cold #3 in Goodgirl #1 in Sweetheart #14 in Love *** *Warning* This story contains mature themes (language, scenes)
