Aarav Malhotra - the reserved and soft-spoken CEO of Malhotra Hotels - has always put family above everything else. Quiet boardrooms and grand hotel projects are easier for him to handle than matters of the heart. Sakshi Sharma - a gentle, kind-hearted primary school teacher - finds joy in the laughter of children and dreams of a simple life filled with love and understanding. When their families arrange their marriage, both are hesitant, bound more by duty than desire. But as shy glances turn into warm conversations and small gestures grow into affection, they begin to discover that maybe, just maybe, fate knows their hearts better than they do. A tale of slow-burn love, emotional connection, and two introverted souls learning to open up - one gentle step at a time. Update on Friday and saturday tropes : * arranged marriage trope * both fell harder * strangers to lovers * age gap (4 years) * supportive in-laws

Love's a War Zone is an intense enemies-to-lovers romance set in the high-stakes world of military aviation. Ahalya Sharma, a brilliant aviation doctor, is tasked with ensuring the health and fitness of the nation's elite fighter pilots. Her sharp intellect and dedication have earned her respect in a male-dominated field, but she meets her match when Shantanu Gambhir, an arrogant, cocky fighter pilot, enters her care. Shantanu's ego clashes with Ahalya's no-nonsense attitude, sparking an immediate hatred between them. He resents being scrutinized by someone he views as beneath him, while she is disgusted by his reckless, brash demeanor. Their professional encounters are filled with sharp words, sarcastic jabs, and heated arguments. Ahalya sees Shantanu as a symbol of everything wrong with the world of military pilots, while he considers her a know-it-all who's too wrapped up in her own intellect. Their intense dislike seems insurmountable-until the simmering tension between them begins to shift into something unexpected. As their paths cross again and again, both start to see beyond the surface. Ahalya begins to understand the immense pressure Shantanu faces as a fighter pilot, his every move potentially a matter of life and death. Shantanu, in turn, comes to respect Ahalya's unwavering commitment to her work and the emotional strength that drives her. Despite their differences, the chemistry between them intensifies, forcing both to confront their pride and the growing attraction they can no longer deny. In a world where trust is fragile and egos run high, Ahalya and Shantanu must navigate their own internal battles and decide whether love can thrive amid the chaos. Love's a War Zone is a thrilling, passionate story about two people torn between love and hate, each trying to break down the walls they've built around their hearts.

𝐁𝐨𝐨𝐤 𝐎𝐧𝐞 𝐢𝐧 ' 𝐀𝐬𝐡𝐞𝐬 & 𝐄𝐦𝐛𝐞𝐫𝐬' 𝐒𝐞𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐬 In a world that screams, I stand in despair, My voice drowned out, lost in the air. Chains of tradition tighten each day, I long to escape, but I'm forced to stay. Each breath I take feels heavy and torn, Every mistake a scar I've worn. I crave a sky where I can be free, Away from the walls that imprison me. For now, I sit with my heart in pain, Silent, yet screaming, again and again. Though shattered, a spark in me still survives, Dreaming of freedom where my soul can rise.

Adhya: "You don't have to bark orders at people to be heard, Mr. Mittal." Amrith: "And you don't have to smile at the world to survive, Ms. Reddy. But somehow... you do." Adhya Reddy has three constants in life-her noisy family, her late grandmother's bakery, and passion towards her career. She believes kindness isn't weakness, and chaos can always be handled with a smile. Amrith Mittal doesn't. For him, life is structure, deadlines, and making things happen-no excuses. As the managing director of a top Hotel, he has no time for softness, family and especially for love. When a clash at the event collides these two worlds, neither knows that fate has just tied their stories together. One rooted in the warmth of Hyderabad's homes, the other forged in the sleek loneliness of tall glass towers. But secrets simmer behind perfect smiles, friends aren't always loyal, and first impressions are far from the truth. Somewhere between bakery counters to the event managing skills. Arguments and stolen glances, Adhya and Amrith will discover that sometimes the person who drives you mad is also the one who makes you smile. Unfold their story with me.🥰
