The Cursed Prince
In a kingdom where curses are more than mere fairy tales, an ancient castle stands hidden behind walls of dark thorns, forgotten by all but the bravest and the most foolish. For within those shadowed halls slumbers a prince cursed by his own heart's betrayal. Once a ruler feared for his power and beauty, he now lies in a spellbound sleep, imprisoned by a vengeful sorceress who demanded a price for his cruelty: eternal rest, unless someone awakens him and binds their fate to his. Mira has never believed in fairy tales. Life in her village is one of harsh reality, where survival depends on wit and willpower. But when her family's future hangs in the balance, she's driven to the one place her people have always feared. Rumors of a sleeping prince and a curse that can be broken are all she has to go on, yet desperation leaves her no choice. But awakening the prince sets a far greater plan in motion, and the darkness she thought she'd face is only the beginning. Now, bound to a prince whose shadows dance with danger and desire, Mira must learn to navigate a world of magic, betrayal, and a fate that pulls them both toward something neither can escape. The only question is, who will break first-the girl with fire in her veins or the prince whose heart has long since turned to stone?Complete

Forget Me Not
In the heart of British-ruled India, where the monsoon winds carried whispers of rebellion and the air was thick with the mingled scent of jasmine and gunpowder, a story was waiting to unfold-one that defied the rigid boundaries of empire, status, and destiny. Amid the cobbled streets and lush estates of jaipur, young Mira, barely eighteen, served as a housemaid in the grand home of Captain Edward Sinclair. Born into a family marked by hardship and resilience, mira carried the quiet strength of her ancestors in her dark eyes and moved with a grace that belied the harshness of her life. To the British officers and their families, she was invisible-just another native servant, a silent witness to the grandeur and the brutality of colonial rule. But to Edward Sinclair, an enigmatic and conflicted officer haunted by his own transgressions, she was an unexpected mirror to his conscience and a source of uncharted emotions. Bound by duty but restless in spirit, Edward bore the weight of secrets that had turned him into a pariah among his own kind, and it was in Anjali's presence that the sharp edges of his guilt began to blur. Their worlds were as different as the scorching sun and the cool, hidden streams of the Indian forest, yet fate conspired to weave them together. In the simmering tensions of an India yearning for freedom, their connection would challenge not just the chains of colonial power but the very notions of love, loyalty, and betrayal. This is a tale of forbidden passions and unspoken truths, where loyalty is tested, and hearts become captives of an era that sought to suppress them. As the empire's shadows lengthen and choices become as perilous as they are inevitable, Mira and Edward must decide if their bond will survive the fires of division-or be consumed by them.Complete
