She fell in love with his characters and he fell in love with her. ● After unknowingly falling in love with a bestselling author hiding behind a false identity, a college girl must decide whether she can trust the man who broke her heart-especially when he refuses to stop fighting for a second chance. ---- Synopsis Rishit Rathore is Reez - one of the most celebrated contemporary authors in India, known for emotionally devastating fiction and an identity so carefully guarded that his readers have never seen his face. He moves through the world with quiet control, his public persona a carefully maintained mystery. Bhavya Singh is a final-year English student who commutes two hours each way to college by bus. She is a devoted reader of Reez - she owns every book he has written, defends his characters fiercely, and has never once questioned whether the man behind the words might be someone she could actually meet. They meet on a morning bus. Rishit recognises the cover of his own book in her hands. He watches her read. He watches her argue, quietly, with his choices. Somewhere between her murmured conviction that his heroine could have been saved and the moment she steps off at her stop without ever looking up, something in him shifts.

The story of Meenakshi and Vivek

#1 of the love series. He rose slowly, still holding her hands. She stepped closer. Closer. So close that the boat rocked faintly beneath them. Then, standing on her toes slightly, she reached up and held his shoulders to steady herself. He instinctively moved his hands to her waist so she wouldn't lose balance. The anklets chimed softly and then.. she bent her head forward.. slowly. Her forehead touched his. The red kumkum on her forehead brushed against his skin, leaving a faint, sacred mark just above his brows. He froze. Neither of them moved. Her eyes were closed and his breath stopped.. the contact was simple. Sacred. When she finally spoke, her voice was barely above a whisper, but steady. "If you are my light," she murmured, her forehead still resting against his, "then let me mark you as mine before the world does." She lowered herself slowly, but didn't move away. Her eyes searched his. "You don't need a ring to bind me," she said softly. "And I don't need a ceremony to know what you mean to me." Her fingers brushed the red mark she had left on him. "This," she smiled faintly, "is my answer. My acceptance." His fingers tightened unconsciously around her waist. "I am yours," she whispered. "And you are mine. Not for a moment. But for every day that comes after." And she slowly moved into his embrace and hugged him, holding him a little tighter than usual, like she never wanted to let go. They stayed there for a while longer, not speaking. Everything you're about to read is true... but I've never confessed to him in real life. The story ends with a plot twist my real life hasn't caught up to yet. This story is written mostly in English (about 98%), with some Telugu (about 2%) along with translations. -------- Happy reading 🩷

[a desi college romance] Vijay and Nila have only one thing in common - they take the same bus at the same time everyday.
