Aarya Mehra has spent the last three years running from her past.
She buried two bodies-her abusive husband and the woman he brought home that night. No one questioned the grieving widow. No one suspected the quiet bakery owner of murder. No one knew what lay beneath the soil.
She built a new life. A small town, a little bakery, a daughter who became her entire world. She was safe.
Until he walked in.
Aksh Verma. Charming. Gentle. A man who makes her feel something she thought she never would again.
At first, he is just a stranger-another customer, another man passing through her life. But something about him draws her in. His kindness. His warmth. The way he looks at her like she's someone worth loving.
And for the first time in years, Aarya lets herself feel.
She doesn't know who he is. She doesn't know that Aksh Verma has spent the last three years searching for his sister-the woman Aarya buried with her own hands.
She doesn't know that every time he holds her close, he is unknowingly falling for the very person responsible for his greatest loss.
But secrets don't stay buried forever.
And when the truth comes out, their love will turn into their greatest tragedy.
Because Aksh Verma loves her... but can he ever forgive her?
Some love stories heal. Theirs will destroy them.
