Six years ago, Zaharina Novati left the De Mevius estate and the boy who never quite asked her to stay. Now she's back-for a party, a favor, and definitely not for the green-eyed vineyard heir with a PhD in avoidance and a minor in emotional constipation.

But when Zara walks back into his life-in stilettos, no less-he finds himself wishing for a second chance he's not sure he deserves.

Six Years Between Us is a sharply funny, achingly tender story of timing gone wrong, secrets that don't stay buried, and the kind of love that refuses to be ignored-even if you're really trying.

All Saylor wanted was a quiet life-one she could hold together with coffee, stubbornness, and the love she has for her son, Finn. She wasn't looking for anything messy, complicated, or romantic. But her best friend Marley has other plans. After one chaotic phone call, Marley decides it's her personal mission to find Saylor a man who won't waste her time or break her heart. Saylor laughs it off... until she walks into a birthday party and meets him. Knox is the kind of man who feels like a secret. Quiet eyes. Rough edges. A past he's rebuilding from the ground up.

Aradhya knows how to stay in the background - focused, sharp, and untouchable. Basketball courts, law prep sessions, and textbooks are her world. Then there's Shashank: popular, brilliant, a national-level basketball player, and impossible to read. When fate pairs them together - in class projects, in group games, at parties - sparks fly.

A story about unspoken feelings, messy emotions, and the space between attraction and understanding.

Prologue Kiara Westbridge University wasn't built for girls like me. Its halls were too polished, its chandeliers too crystal-clear, its students too carefully curated from old money and older legacies. Everyone here carried a last name that could open doors, bend rules, and rewrite consequences. Except me. I carried a scholarship, stitched pride, and a thousand reasons why I couldn't afford to fail. And then there was Abheer Malhotra- The crown prince of Westbridge. Heir to an empire, heart made of stone, and eyes like winter-cold, unreadable, and sharp enough to cut. He didn't talk much. Didn't need to. One glance from him was enough to silence a room. I should've stayed away. Should've just ignored him like I ignored every other ego with a trust fund and too much cologne. But no. He noticed me. And worse? He hated me. It started with a comment in class-condescending, precise. Then came the smirks, the subtle sabotages, the storm he carried with every encounter. But hate is a funny thing. It simmers, it snaps, it circles back. Until it's so close to passion, you can't tell which is which. Until the line between enemies and something else entirely starts to blur. This was never supposed to be a love story. But now I think... maybe it was always meant to be one. One set on fire. One built in broken pieces. One we never saw coming.

The world teeters on a knife's edge. Between the High Heavens and the chaotic depths of the Abyss, humanity exists as a fragile experiment-an unstable balance between law and freedom, light and shadow. Malakai, a fallen divine messenger turned demon, has lived centuries under the weight of punishment and regret. Once tasked with delivering a "mercy killing" to an innocent human lineage, he refused-and was cast down for his defiance. Now, he maintains a tenuous balance, carrying the burden of souls he is forced to punish while keeping the fragile peace between Heaven, Hell, and humanity. Lilith, a human scholar living on the fringes of society, is a Secret Keeper-a guardian of truths the world has forgotten. In her search through ancient texts, she uncovers the Ember Scrolls, relics that reveal the High Heavens' true plan: the "Great Purification," a cataclysm designed to reset humanity, erasing free will and rewriting the fate of all mortals. When an elite squad of angels arrives to "sanitize" Lilith's city, Malakai is sent to stop her-but instead, their souls recognize a shared defiance. Malakai finds in Lilith the light he was once punished for protecting, while Lilith sees in him a truth-teller in a world built on divine lies. Together, they ignite a rebellion that shakes the foundations of the universe itself. From catacombs to the Abyss, from collapsing cities to the skies torn by angels' wrath, Malakai and Lilith face impossible odds. Humanity awakens, fragments of memory and choice collide with divine law, and even the enigmatic First Stillness begins to take notice. Love, defiance, and sacrifice intertwine in ways that could save the world-or destroy it entirely. In a universe on the brink of war, they must ask themselves: How far will they go to protect the light of free will, and can love survive when Heaven and Hell are both against them?

"In Kyrabad, secrets linger longer than the fog... and some are worth killing for."

Unexpectedly Tied is a tale of clashing personalities, reluctant compromises, and love found in the most unexpected place.

The monsoon arrived like a scorned lover-violent, unannounced, drenching Mumbai. Marine Drive hissed, the Arabian Sea clawing at the city. Somewhere between Kurla's chaos and Bandra's skyline, fate waited. Priya Sharma, in a neon-yellow raincoat, dashed through puddles, balancing kande pohe and chai, teasing a vendor for unpaid snacks. Across the city, Arjun Rathod, trapped in his forty-third-floor office, shut his laptop against the ghost of his father. Investors could wait. They collided at a flooded crosswalk. Priya's chai splattered Arjun's crisp shirt; his laptop bag soaked in rain. "Are you mad?" he snapped. She grinned. "Mad? Haan. But you-" she eyed his laptop, wrinkling her nose "-look like you've never tasted sunshine." Arjun scowled. "That laptop costs more than your existence." Unfazed, she shoved soggy kande pohe into his hands. "Compensation. Spicy enough to melt that face." And then, she vanished. Nearby, a street kid giggled. "Bhaiyya, you look like a Balaji serial villain." Arjun didn't smile. His laptop was dead-like the part of him that once believed in monsoons, miracles, and mad girls in yellow raincoats. Somewhere in Colaba, Priya pinned a sketch to her wall: a brooding man with storm-cloud eyes, drowned in chai. She titled it Grumpy vs. Monsoon: Round 1.

He tugged at her lower lip, just a feather of a touch that Lea barely felt. Before she knew what she was doing she reached up into it, her hands sliding up to cup his jaw. Alex sucked in a breadth and pulled back, just a slightest bit. Lea's hand slid up and entwined with the hair at his nape while the other rested on his chest. He searched her face with glazed eyes, and with a sudden curse he swung her around. He pushed Lea against the shelf, his body covering hers. Her back dug in the wood and the spines of the books. Alex gathered her face, and kissed her with such intensity that her mind went momentarily black. They had began as a slow simmer, and turned into a raging fire. I wish I could tell you this was like a Jane Austen novel with the classic happy ending. It's not. It's a story that will break your heart, and piece it back together again. A story about a boy and a girl... And a group of master assassins, a few criminal lords, judgmental girls in dresses, Pirates, an angry German with a Scythe. And the lie that connects them all.
