Madelyn Chung is one of the best clinical psychology PhD students Harvard has ever seen-the most controversial, too. After discovering a data fraud conducted by Harvard's star faculty, Dr. Charlotte Shelby, her career seems more uncertain, with whispers within the field accuse her as a burdensome whistleblower, betrayals from peers, and awkward tensions between her and the faculty. With a potential groundbreaking research project in the line, she is appointed to work with Dr. Alex Manning, the young neuroscientist who revolutionized several of Harvard's neuroscience research. A life-changing opportunity for Maddie-except, she must deal with the fact that Alex was one of Charlotte's past collaborators, and his career was almost at stake because of her. Maddie has always been careful when trudging through the endless hours of clinical shifts and research while juggling academics. But when she doesn't know if the longing stares from Alex every time he tries to make her life harder are an indication of hatred, or if they mean something else, she starts to feel unprepared. Because Maddie knows she is a falling star, and if she holds onto the fragile trust between her and Alex too tightly, she will only fall harder.

Flatmates to Friends. Friends to Lovers. A slowburn love story between a tech nerd Avni and an actor Rohit who is more than 5 years younger than her. Set in ten years of time span. Cute romance. No love triangles. Found family tropes. Nice and kind charecters. South Mumbai Vibes. Avni Pathak is a tech entrepreneur who rebuilt her life and her identity from the ashes. Fiercely private and deeply introverted, she clings to her peace and quiet like a lifeline. Her awkward, deadpan charm has a way of endearing and occasionally exasperating everyone around her. She's all heart and quiet resilience, wrapped in the unassuming shell of a soft-spoken coder who just wants to be left alone (unless you're her laptop or her one plant). Rohit Avasthi is an aspiring actor with big dreams and an even bigger heart. Loud, expressive, and full of mischief, he brings joy and spontaneity wherever he goes. He's chaos in motion, wrapped in a genetically-blessed face, and somehow manages to be both a walking distraction and the safest person in the room. Avni and Rohit are flatmates, figuring out life, love, ambition, and what it means to be truly happy. Avni is the quiet anchor, steady and grounded, holding him when he soars too high too fast. Rohit is the sunshine, bright and unrelenting, warming her gently when she begins to stumble. Together, they balance each other-soft chaos meeting quiet strength-as they become friends.

{UPDATES RESUME FROM JUNE 1} Two strangers. One marriage. And a love story that grows the way mangoes do-slowly, quietly, sweetly. When Dharani is married off to a shy farmer in a remote Maithil village, she expects duty. She does not expect tenderness. Or the drought threatening the land. Or the silent boy who becomes her husband. Under the shade of an old mango tree, Dharani and Madhav learn the meaning of partnership- not in grand gestures, but in everyday kindness, whispered fears, and standing together when the world turns dry. A gentle, slow-burn romance set in 1990s Bihar- about love that grows not with fire, but with patience.
