1ST BOOK OF BRIDE SERIES✨✨ He returned to India after fourteen years to fulfill a promise he had made as a child. But now she has forgotten him and moved on with her life with someone else. Believing her cousin to be his childhood sweetheart, he is now preparing to marry her.

Isha's wedding day was meant to be a celebration, a transition into a new chapter of her life. Instead, it became a desperate escape. Trapped in an arranged marriage to a man she barely knew, a man whose reputation whispered of coldness and cruelty, Isha makes a daring run for freedom. But her flight takes an unexpected turn when she collides with Rudra, a face that flickers at the edge of her memory-a man with dark eyes, a dangerous aura, and a claim that sends shivers down her spine: "𝒔𝒉𝒆 𝒃𝒆𝒍𝒐𝒏𝒈𝒔 𝒕𝒐 𝒉𝒊𝒎" Whisked away to a crumbling haveli nestled deep in the Rajasthan desert, Isha finds herself caught in a web of conflicting emotions. Fear wars with a strange, undeniable attraction to her captor. Rudra, enigmatic and possessive, offers no explanations, only cryptic pronouncements about protecting her from a greater danger. As Isha pieces together fragments of her past and uncovers the truth about Rudra's motives, she realizes that her escape has led her into a world far more perilous than the one she left behind. In the heart of India, amidst ancient secrets and simmering tensions. 𝐈𝐬𝐡𝐚 𝐦𝐮𝐬𝐭 𝐜𝐡𝐨𝐨𝐬𝐞: 𝐭𝐫𝐮𝐬𝐭 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐦𝐚𝐧 𝐰𝐡𝐨 𝐬𝐭𝐨𝐥𝐞 𝐡𝐞𝐫 𝐟𝐫𝐞𝐞𝐝𝐨𝐦, 𝐨𝐫 𝐫𝐢𝐬𝐤 𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐲𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐭𝐨 𝐫𝐞𝐜𝐥𝐚𝐢𝐦 𝐢𝐭.
