Book 3 of Royal Romance (Coming soon!!)
Some loves begin too early. Some arrive too late. And some refuse to end at all.
Ruhanika was born with a heart that never learned how to hide.
In a palace ruled by diplomacy and restraint, she grew up wearing her heart on her sleeve-loving openly, believing deeply, feeling without fear.
At five years old, she fell in the purest way possible-into a quiet fascination with a boy older, stronger, steadier than her.
Adhiraj.
What began as innocent admiration grew with time, maturing into a love she never learned to let go of. But love does not always grow in two directions.
Adhiraj never promised her anything, and when she finally confessed her heart, his rejection was calm, composed... final.
Heartbroken yet dignified, Ruhanika chose duty over longing. When a political marriage proposal came, she accepted it-believing that moving on was the only way to survive loving him.
Until fate intervened.
On the day she stands dressed as a bride, she looks up to meet the man she is meant to marry-and finds Adhiraj standing there.
The boy who once turned away from her love.
Now bound to her by duty.
A marriage neither of them chose.
A past neither of them healed.
Between buried regret, unspoken longing, and a palace watching their every move, Ruhanika-Raj is a slow-burning tale of forced marriage, childhood love grown complicated, and two hearts caught between what they feel and what they are allowed to want.
Because some loves do not fade.
They wait.
They endure.
And when they return, they demand everything.
