In a world where he's never been on receiving side, she gives him everything by her love. He is hard to love, but she loves him like breathing.

***
"Think twice before laying a finger on him. I guarantee you won't like the aftermath, Darling"

"I fell for him so hard and so deep that sometimes I feel like he's etched into my very soul."

"Try to steal his attention, and I'll steal your peace of mind."

"I'm not one to share, especially when it comes to what's mine."

***
She's fiercely possessive of him, and obsessively devoted to him. While he remains ice cold when it comes to emotions. 

She gets everything she wants, and one day, her eyes fall on a man working in a cafe, the man who becomes her addiction.

When a woman he meets at the cafe is hell-bent on making him hers, Will this middle class ice master melt for her love? What secrets is he hiding behind that icy facade?

Their love is a tempest of passion in a world of ice. Together, they spark flames in the coldest of hearts.All Rights Reserved

[ 𝐁𝐨𝐨𝐤 𝐈 𝐨𝐟 𝐃𝐞𝐯𝐨𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐑𝐞𝐝𝐞𝐦𝐩𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧 𝐒𝐞𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐬 ] ➥ 𝐒𝐚𝐚𝐧𝐯𝐢 𝐌𝐚𝐥𝐡𝐨𝐭𝐫𝐚 was never meant to be cold, but life carved ice into her bones. Once a carefree child with an unrestrained smile her world shattered the night she was branded a murderer at nine years old. Since then, she has lived behind an unbreakable mask detached, indifferent, untouchable. A surgeon who saves lives but refuses to let anyone touch hers. To the world, she is rude, heartless, impossible to love. But they don't see the demons that claw at her in the dead of night. And then, another storm entered her life. ➥ 𝐑𝐮𝐝𝐫𝐚 𝐒𝐢𝐧𝐠𝐡𝐚𝐧𝐢𝐚, his name commands power, bends wills, and lingers on sinful lips. By day he is a businessman feared and revered. By night he drowns in fleeting bodies and silk sheets losing himself in women whose names he never remembers. Love? A weakness he discarded the moment betrayal scarred his soul. But no one knows the truth. Beyond the wealth, beyond the charm, beyond the empire, lies a man who walks in shadows, his hands stained in blood a man who rules a world where blood is currency and mercy is a weakness. And then he saw her. She was cold, distant, untouchable. The first woman to look at him without submission and that's when he knew. He hated her. He wanted her. He wanted to break her, ruin her, own her. But she despises him. Loathes his presence. Rejects his very existence. Yet Rudra Singhania doesn't just take what he wants. He devours. She refuses to kneel, but she is the only one who can bring him to his knees. But what happens when he uncovers the truth she's hidden? And what if his own darkness costs him everything? Passionate Devotion isn't a fairytale. It's a war. And in Rudra's world, the beast always wins.

His Solace by NandiniKrishnaa

Arjun×Nandini Two gentle hearts One is yours and another one is also yours Yes! I have given you mine For this reason, sometimes I may seem heartless ✧♡｡⁠♡｡♡⁠｡♡✧♡｡♡｡♡｡♡✧ Nandini Sharma is an aspiring singer who hides her painful past behind a bright smile. To the world, she is warm, cheerful, and full of life-but beneath the surface, she carries scars no one sees. Haunted by memories she refuses to confront and paralyzed by her fear of blood, she has spent years burying her pain. When her father arranges her marriage to Arjun Singh Khurana, she believes she's marrying a businessman. She doesn't know that Arjun is a ruthless mafia boss-or that their marriage is nothing more than a contract. Forced into a life she never chose, Nandini soon realizes that beneath Arjun's cold exterior, he, too, carries wounds hidden from the world. But just as she begins to understand him, the past she tried so hard to forget starts resurfacing. And when the cracks in her carefully built walls begin to show, Arjun realizes that something much darker is haunting her-something far bigger than he ever expected. As secrets unravel and truths come to light, will they find solace in each other, or will the past destroy them both?
