Some promises are made with love.
Some marriages are made with sacrifice.
And some are built on secrets that should have stayed buried forever.
Aanya Rathore spent three years fighting for the future she wanted-a life in London, a dream she built with sleepless nights, relentless determination, and the belief that her choices belonged to her.
Then, in a single evening, everything was taken away.
Her marriage had already been arranged.
To Aarav Singhania.
The heir to the only family the Rathores had spent twenty years avoiding.
Cold. Composed. Impossible to read.
A man who believes control is survival.
A woman who refuses to surrender.
Neither of them chose this marriage.
Neither of them wants it.
But as old betrayals begin resurfacing and a twenty-year-old secret threatens to destroy both families, hatred slowly turns into understanding... and understanding becomes something far more dangerous.
Because sometimes the person you were forced to marry...
becomes the only person willing to fight for your freedom.
slow-burn
arranged marriage
romance filled with unforgettable banter, emotional tension,
family secrets,
possessive love,
healing, heartbreak,
and the kind of chemistry that changes everything.
"He was never supposed to be her home.
She was never supposed to become his reason to stay."
