The Curse of Seven
"Listen carefully, Amara... Seven souls have fallen from grace. You will find one who is prideful and vain, one who has become sick with that which he craves, one whose desires will control his aims, one who resents that which he cannot attain, one who consumes more than which he's ordained, one who disregards love for rage, and one who does little for those in aid. Seven Sins... Seven months, and your burden will be lifted." ~~~~~~ Amara has spent five years of her life away from the world, the weight of her past shadowing her every step. Once engaged to a beloved celebrity and on the path to a bright future, her life shattered when a single tragic moment led to her fiancé's death. Now free, she returns to a world that has moved on without her-a father with a secret, a society unwilling to forgive, and a future that feels out of reach. As Amara navigates her isolation, she begins to encounter strange things. She uncovers uncomfortable truths about her family, her fiancé's death, and the person she wants to become. In the end, Amara must decide whether she can forgive herself and embrace the chance to rebuild her life. As things continue to come to light, she must confront the darkest parts of herself.

No, I don't think I do. 'Do I have anyone who cares about me?' No, I'm a loner and socially awkward. 'Do I have privileges?'

Pulse of a Heavy Heart
Working hard was my motto. I put it upon myself to please everyone, to work hard, and to make a life that would honor everyone in my family. Until I stepped into the cold waters of the real world, unshielded by my parents. Now, as a Integrated Cardiothoracic Surgery Resident, my life feels far from complete. As the youngest resident in an elite integrated cardiothoracic surgery program, Dr. Amara Iyers has always thrived under pressure. But behind her steady hands and calculated precision lies a heart weighed down by grief, self-doubt, and the relentless expectations of a family she can no longer lean on. Haunted by the loss of her parents and brother, Amara's every move feels like a test-her success a tribute to their sacrifices, her failure unthinkable. The endless hours in the OR and the constant demands of academic medicine leave her questioning her abilities and wondering if she's truly cut out for the life she's chosen. Outside the hospital walls, the silence of her empty apartment amplifies her loneliness, and the smiles she wears to mask her pain begin to crack. When an unexpected rival encounter forces her to confront her deepest fears and insecurities, following a life of love and romance, Amara embarks on a journey of self-discovery. Through the wisdom of mentors, the camaraderie of friends, and her own growing resilience, she begins to understand that healing isn't just for the body-it's for the soul. In a story of heartache and hope, Pulse of a Heavy Heart explores the pressures of perfection, the weight of expectations, and the power of self-compassion. Amara's journey reminds us that sometimes the hardest battle isn't saving a life-it's learning to live your own.
