Kimberly Hill is an 18 year old girl from Oakland, raised in a conservative family, with racist values towards every race, except from hers. Her life seems rather stable, she's in a relationship, has just finished school, and it's time for her to take the next step in life, which is, supposedly, going to university, to define her future.
But her future doesn't hold what she expects. Instead of receiving an acceptance letter from Standford University, she receives one from the US army, telling her she's one in thousands of people enlisted for war.
It isn't what she expects, but it's a remarkable life experience. All of her values, and encounters she considered important, start being questioned when she meets her new partner, Lucas Sanders, who has a whole new mentality Kimberly had never heard of. It's her time to learn how life actually looks like, after growing up in a bubble designed by her family, and about the meaning of true love, based on moral standards, and deeper feelings, instead of superficial things she saw as relevant. But there are problems obstacling this affair. Will she give her pride away to obtain true love? Or will she give true love away to get pride? She doesn't know, and she's going to find out.
❝Jab koi salam kare, toh uska jawab dete hain,❞ he said with a voice that sent a shiver down her spine.
"Ji," she barely managed to whisper before yanking her hand back and running to the kitchen.

Pari had always dreamed of a beautiful love story...
But on her wedding night, those dreams shattered: "Don't expect anything from this marriage," her husband said in an emotionless tone. "Yeh sirf meri family ke liye ek formality hai. Bas. Aur kuch nahi.". She stared at him, her lips parting as if to speak, but no words came.
A few days later, while cleaning the attic, she found a diary... his diary. A woman's name written over and over again. It didn't take much to piece the truth together... his heart was never hers to begin with.
Still, no matter how much his indifference hurt, she couldn't stop herself from falling for him.
And just when she thought things couldn't get more complicated, life threw her the ultimate twist...
At university, she came face to face with her cold, distant husband once again... this time, as his STUDENT.
And that was only the beginning...
