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
Roses And Thorns
Ever heard of happy ever after?. Well, you can think twice about that, Karen thought she had it all, a perfect family, a career and a boyfriend she'd known her whole life, the one for her, her One And Only, until... She saw the true and new side of him, he's not human, not anywhere near it, he's colder than the ice of Antarctica, ruthless than any man she's ever seen, well not even her heartless dad. But you know what?, she loves him, despite his flaws, against all odds, she still loves this man even after years of separation. 'Aren't you going to hit me today?', she asked him trembling knowing it is just a matter of time till he will. 'The day hasn't yet ended Karina'. She swallowed hard, 'Please leave, I...we are done!'. He smiled, 'You're my wife!, I own every single fucking part of you, you belong to me, body, mind and soul!'. Karen wanted to run, but where to?, after the years they've been apart he's been able to find her, what's she thinking?. 'I... I want a divorce'. That's it, he lost it, grabbed her long hair which was now short, she winced in pain but it was nothing she's not used to already. 'What?!!!'. 'You...you're hurting me'. 'Like hell I am, I'll never give you a divorce, sue me if you want, I give you five minutes to pack, we're going back home!!'. Tears burned her cheeks, home?, or hell?, that place he calls home is nothing but hell.Complete
What Was Left Behind
Some loves don't vanish. They wait. Emma thought hers had ended the night she walked away. She left with a secret so heavy it nearly swallowed her-claiming a loss that never was, protecting herself from the one man she couldn't bear to disappoint. Daniel had already lived through heartbreak once; she couldn't ask him to survive another. Years passed. Emma raised her son alone, convincing herself she'd done the right thing. Daniel buried himself in work, carrying questions he never dared to answer. Then fate threw them back together. A chance encounter. A boy with familiar eyes. A truth too big to stay hidden. Now Emma and Daniel must navigate the wreckage of the past, the weight of betrayal, and the fragile hope of forgiveness. Between them lies a love that never died-but to claim it, they'll have to face the lies that tore them apart and build, piece by piece, a home strong enough to hold them all. This is not a story about perfection. It's a story about storms and bridges, about fear and courage, about love that bends but does not break. And about two people who discover that sometimes, the hardest part of loving someone isn't letting go. It's staying.
