In which a girl ends up marrying her ex fiancés older brother, who just happens to be her first love

Ranya had her life figured out from a young age. She knew she wanted nothing more than to be a teacher, working with kids she loves. She wanted to marry the love of her life and live happily afterwards, and hopefully she'd somehow find the courage to marry her crush. 

But of course, life never pans out the way you assume and hope it will when you're a child. Instead, she found herself engaged to someone else, but when he leaves, it seems like her entire life will fall apart. That is, until his older brother, her first love, the guy she knew she should have been with, decided to swoop in. 

It's been years since they have seen each other, and with all kinds of unspoken feelings, misunderstandings, and baggage between the two, they're in for a rocky relationship.

Our kind of mistake by rxaawrites_

She once loved him enough to ask for forever. He rejected her like a joke. Years later, they're standing in the same wedding - not as a couple, but as the exes of the bride and groom. Devansh Sharma, now a renowned architect, had everything he wanted... except closure. Vaidehi Agnihotri, now a pediatrician with zero tolerance for emotional messes, had buried her past along with her now ex-until he walked back into it. When their families unexpectedly announce their rishta, and their exes can't handle the heat, a fake engagement turns into a full-blown wedding plan. It started as a joke. A distraction. Revenge, maybe. But somewhere between sarcastic rituals and awkward newlywed moments, pretending felt a little too real. What if the mistake they tried to fake... was actually meant to be? Because sometimes, the wrong person leads you to the right kind of love. Tropes:- He fell first (this time) Marriage on terms Lover her x wipped him Ex's cousin/Ex's brother Rom-com Old wounds + healing + rediscovering love Second chance romance

His Ignorant Lover ✓ by nailawritesfiction

••| 1st in Arranged Series |•• Can be read as a Standalone. "Thank God, you took my call," he mumbled. "Why did you send that flower bouquet?" He fought the urge to chuckle at her troubled voice. "At least those flowers made you talk to me. May I know what I did to get this ignored treatment of you?" "Don't do such things and please don't call me again." She wanted to say this but her tongue refused to form those words. "I...I was just busy due to my studies that's why." She bit her tongue when she realized she had answered exactly the opposite of what she wanted to say. He sat up and glared at the phone's screen. So this kitten knew how to play hard to get? "Are you sure that's the only reason?" "No, I am telling the truth. I have exams in a few days. " "Ohh...so am I distracting you?" "I am sorry, I won't disturb you now." "No, no, you don't disturb me." Her heart came into her mouth at the consequences of his words. It was not easy to resist Ruhaan Sufiyan Ahmad. He himself knew it and it took Nisha Sikandar just two weeks to realize it. ____________________ Start Date: 30/04/2022 End Date: 09/06/2023

His Childhood Bride by authorduxx

She was only six when her fate was sealed with his name. Thirteen years later, when Dua returns from abroad, everyone expects a westernized, rebellious girl. Instead, they find a soft, cultured young woman whose beauty and grace leave whispers of envy trailing in her wake. She is no longer the timid child everyone remembers, but a breathtaking young woman draped in grace and quiet strength. The entire haveli whispers about her beauty. Some admire. Some envy. But only one man burns with an obsession he can't control-her husband by nikkah, Taimoor Arsalan Shah. Cold. Powerful. Feared by many. Taimoor never wanted a wife chosen for him. Never wanted the childhood nikkah that tied him to her. Years later, he has built a life of authority, discipline, and unyielding pride. But when Dua walks back into his haveli, draped in innocence and quiet strength, he is struck with a possessiveness he never thought himself capable of. Her lowered lashes and trembling lips make him realize that the girl he once ignored is now the only woman capable of undoing him. She wants freedom. He wants her surrender. And in a world bound by family honor, secrets, and desire- love was never supposed to feel this dangerous.The girl he once rejected is now the woman he cannot let go of-even if it means breaking her heart to claim it. "You were mine before you even knew what marriage meant, Dua. And now... you'll know exactly what it means to belong to me."
