( #1st book of Threads of Love Series ) *ੈ✩‧₊˚༺☆༻*ੈ✩‧₊˚ Abhiraj Singh Yaduvanshi has conquered the corporate world at twenty-eight, turning Yaduvanshi Industries into an empire that bows to his will. But for the first time in his life, he faces a challenge his wealth and power can't solve: winning the trust of Akshara Maitya, a woman whose past has taught her that love is just another word for pain. In the glittering world of Mumbai's elite, Abhiraj is used to getting what he wants. Yet Akshara's walls aren't built with bricks that money can buy - they're forged from scars that run soul-deep. While he's determined to make her his wife, she's equally determined to never let anyone close enough to break her again. But how far will Abhiraj go to prove his love? And more importantly, should he? As Akshara's haunting past threatens to destroy any chance of their future, both must answer a crucial question: Is love worth the risk of breaking, even when there's no guarantee of being put back together? "Abhira: Tale of devotion" is not just another love story - it's a battle between one man's unwavering determination and one woman's unshakeable fears. In this tale of patience, persistence, and healing, the real question isn't whether love can conquer all, but whether it should even try. Will Abhiraj's devotion be enough to melt the ice around Akshara's heart? Or will his pursuit only prove what she's always feared - that love is a game where everyone loses in the end? The answer lies in these pages, where love meets its greatest challenge yet: convincing a broken heart to believe again.

He's mature, composed, and everything she swore she'd never fall for a 28 year old man bound by rules, reputation, and silence. They're nothing alike. She's chaos. He's calm.

And hearts, unknowingly, begin to lean in.

Aadhya Agarwal, 24, a young fashion designer with dreams dipped in red, lives like the warm glow of a diya on a quiet night. She's soft in the way she speaks, fierce in the way she loves, and carries that sunshine energy that makes people feel lighter just by standing near her. She believes in soulmate-level love, in rituals, in anklets that jingle when she walks toward a future she's always imagined for herself. Abhinav Malhotra, 30, a CEO carved out of discipline and silence, moves through life like a man who's forgotten what warmth feels like.
