wounded hearts

Book 3 of wounded series.

Vedanth Kashyap has always been a mystery.

After years spent in Britain building a successful career as an economist, he's finally considering settling in India. Quiet, reserved, and impossible to read, he keeps everyone at arm's length. Very few people know the truth about his family and the surname he carries, the bitter dispute threatening to tear it apart, and the scars he's spent years hiding behind logic and silence.

Then there's Ruhika Rajvanshi.

An editor who never runs out of words, Ruhika fills every room with laughter, conversations, and chaos. To the world, she's confident and carefree. What nobody sees is the hurt she carries from a childhood shattered by her mother. After spending twenty-four years keeping her distance from her family, she's only recently found her way back home following her mother's death.

They are opposites in every possible way.

He's the silence.

She's the noise.

He's careful.

She's impulsive.

And yet, somewhere between family gatherings, late-night conversations, and moments neither of them expected to matter, they fall far too fast.

Just when they're beginning to understand what they mean to each other, one unexpected moment changes everything.

An accidental pregnancy.

Suddenly, they are forced to navigate a future neither of them planned, while a long buried conflict within Vedanth's family resurfaces, threatening his career, his relationships, and everything he's worked for. As old secrets come to light and loyalties are tested, Vedanth finds himself fighting battles he can no longer face alone.

But love isn't always about finding the perfect person.

Sometimes it's about finding the one who stays when your world is falling apart.

In a story about family, forgiveness, hidden wounds, and choosing your own heart, two people who never expected forever must decide whether they're brave enough to build it together.
