Life is a fickle thing.
It goes too fast,
When it leaves we want it back,
But when it stays it feels like it will never be what one wants.
Every once in a while though,
It comes,
And everything in that moment is beautiful
This is probably not the book you were expecting it to be, but I honestly don't know how to summarize it in a way to get you to read it, so why not just take a dive in and take a chance on Chasing Peace?

Found Again 🌙
After five years of silence, Nila wasn't expecting to see Aarav again-especially not in the same office corridor where their story had once quietly unraveled. She had learned to bury her feelings, to live with the echoes of love that never got to grow. But fate has its own rhythm. From shared glances to shared coffee, from unsent letters to late-night conversations, Nila and Aarav begin to rewrite what was lost. Not with grand declarations, but with the slow, aching honesty of people who've been broken-and are now brave enough to hold each other gently. This is not a love story about fireworks. It's about returning. About staying. About the quiet kind of love that asks nothing but presence... and gives everything in return. A story of second chances, soft tension, and the love that waited.Complete

Where the Cracks Let Love In
"Where the Cracks Let Love In" is not just a story-it's a heartbeat stretched across time, pain, and the fragile beauty of second chances. Aarav once believed love could fix everything. With a guitar in hand and music in his soul, he poured his heart into a girl who couldn't stay-not because she didn't love him, but because love alone wasn't enough. When expectations crumbled, so did he. What remains is a man haunted by what could've been... until a new presence enters like a quiet storm. Siya. Grounded. Real. Unafraid to meet his silence with sincerity. She doesn't live in dreams-she lives in truth. And somehow, in her calm, Aarav finds a reason to breathe again. But life never unfolds without a twist. A missed heartbeat. A hidden truth. A choice that could change everything. From heartbreak to healing, from broken strings to lullabies, this is a story of unexpected love, accidental beginnings, and the courage it takes to choose someone-not once, but over and over again. Because sometimes, love doesn't come the way we imagine. It arrives through the cracks-soft, steady, and meant to stay.Complete
