Symptoms:
1. You'll feel attracted
2. You'd do all sorts of crazy stuff so that he/she notices you
3. you'd be enraged why you can't have what you want
- All symptoms of love, or in Maya Durham's eyes, a cage, even though she was a romance author.
All Maya has done in all her 28 years of existence is write just one good book and a bunch of unpopular ones. No she is stuck in a life of adjustments and almost no cash flow and love is but a mere luxury. And Maya didn't want any of it.
But there's always a but. When the "buts and ifs" Nick Pendragon enters the scene with a tempting offer of being famous again, she couldn't refuse but couldn't accept either. She wanted nothing more than to kick this arrogant and over confident guy out.
To think she'll be stuck in the most cliche and romantic situations ever seen by mankind is something no one could've imagined. And it's almost draining the life out of her trying to escape this cage. On top of that she's beginning to realize the cliches she wrote and he criticized resemble none of the reality.
Yet, why did the sound of being stuck with him doesn't sound so life threatening anymore?

An Unexpected meeting at An Unexpected Place
Maya believed love would save her. Instead, it shattered her, rebuilt her, and asked her to survive the wreckage. When Maya travels from Vizag to Hyderabad to surprise her boyfriend, she walks straight into betrayal-one moment that rips her faith in love apart. Heartbroken and afraid of returning home, she chooses to stay back, rebuild herself, and start a new life from nothing. A new job. New friends. A fragile hope. But fate has its own cruel timing. In a crowded pub, in a fleeting glance, Maya meets Sushant-a stranger who feels disturbingly familiar. Their paths cross again and again: at work, at home, in moments of vulnerability she never meant to share. He is calm where she is chaos, distant where she feels too much. Drawn together by unspoken tension, they orbit each other, never fully touching, never fully letting go. What begins as attraction slowly turns into something deeper-something terrifying. Misunderstandings, jealousy, manipulations, and hidden truths pull them apart just when they come closest. Maya tries to move on, crosses lines she shouldn't, and loses herself in confusion. Sushant, carrying scars and secrets of his own, keeps choosing silence over honesty-until silence becomes the most dangerous choice of all. Across cities and countries, through separation, regret, and longing, their lives keep colliding. Love follows them like a shadow-sometimes tender, sometimes destructive. And just when happiness feels possible, fate demands the highest price. This is not a fairytale romance. This is a story about obsession, healing, desire, sacrifice, and love that chooses to disappear so it doesn't destroy. A story where promises are made, broken, and remembered. Where love doesn't always stay-but leaves something behind. Some love stories don't end. They echo.Complete

BOOK 2 OF CAGED!!! DO NOT READ THIS IF YOU HAVENT READ CAGED BOOK 1!! Warnings: - sickeningly sweet romance - mentions of sex - a LOT of fluff - LGBTQ - Gayness -Homophobia - love confessions - characters with mental issues Reincarnation? How ridiculous. At least, that's what 19-year-old Oliver Menton thought-until the day he woke up feeling like a stranger in his own body, as though he were living someone else's life like a story unfolding before him. But with a loving family and the kingdom's most famous bakery to his parents' name, Oliver decided to embrace the life he had, even if something about it felt oddly... incomplete. It had been three years since the tragic loss of Prince Consort Zwei Lloyd, and Prince Desmond Yohan III still carried the weight of grief and regret. So when a trip to a local bakery led him face-to-face with someone who looked almost identical to his late brother's husband, it was as if fate had reached out to him. Haunted by memories and driven by a desire to love better than his brother had in the past, Desmond found himself returning to the bakery every day, his heart stirring each time Oliver greeted him with a smile-and his exact order memorized. Desmond told himself he would keep his feelings hidden, content to admire Oliver from afar. But when he finally makes his first move, he discovers that perhaps fate had other plans-plans that just might entwine their hearts in a love story neither expected but both desperately needed.
