In the heart of colonial Punjab, love is treason.
Neero was born into fire - a girl of ink-stained fingers, sharp defiance, and the kind of quiet strength empires fear. James Whitmore was never meant to love her - a British officer raised on discipline, pride, and the belief that the world belonged to men like him.
But when fate throws them together, love ignites - fierce, forbidden, and impossible to erase.
As rebellion brews and loyalties are tested, Neero and James must choose between duty and desire, survival and sacrifice. When blood is spilled and secrets are weaponized, even love may not be enough to save them.
A story of rebellion, betrayal, and a love that defied an empire - until it burned.
