Tangled Fates (Republishing)

(Previously titled as Mesalliance. Republished version)

Years ago, two best friends made a promise.

They dreamed that one day their families would become one.

Time passed. Lives changed. The promise was forgotten.

Or so everyone thought.

Madhu Hegde is independent and focussed on her career in fashion. With her sights set on London fashion week and Met Gala, marriage is the last thing on her mind.

Vikram Rao wants nothing to do with family expectations. A doctor with a troubled past, he has spent years avoiding everything his family wants for him.

But when an old promise resurfaces, their lives are turned upside down.

Forced together by family, tradition, and a dying grandmother's final wish, Madhu and Vikram find themselves caught between duty and their own dreams.

As old wounds reopen and secrets from the past come to light, they must decide whether their marriage is another mistake... or the beginning of something neither of them expected.

After all, love was never part of the plan.
