Sarah, the youngest daughter in a humble, middle-class family, has always been the embodiment of her parents' dreams. With two elder sisters already established in their lives, the weight of expectation rests heavily on her shoulders. After experiencing a devastating failure, Sarah is determined to redeem herself and secure the bright future her family envisions for her.

Ryan, on the other hand, is the only child of his ambitious parents, both doctors who have carved a future for him without his consent. While he obediently walks the path they've laid out, Ryan harbors a secret passion for online gaming, a talent he knows his parents would never approve of.

Back in school, Sarah and Ryan were fierce academic rivals, constantly pushing each other to excel, driven by the desire to outdo the other. Their competition defined them, yet after high school, their lives took very different directions. They parted ways, only to unexpectedly cross paths again seven years later.

Now, as adults, they meet with masks of success-both pretending to be thriving, hiding their failures and inner struggles. But behind their forced smiles and false bravado lies the same old rivalry, along with questions they've been too scared to face: what if they lose eachother again? Beneath the competition, there has always been an unspoken connection, something they're both too afraid to admit.

In the heart of this Indian tale, set against the vibrant backdrop of family traditions, unfulfilled dreams, and personal redemption, Sarah and Ryan must face the truth about themselves-and each other. 
Will their rivalry push them apart once more, or will it become the bridge that brings them closer than ever before?



... Inspired by the true journey of a real-life romance.

Radhya Chowdhary - a girl whose name could touch Everest, yet whose feet remain humbly grounded. Born into a middle-class family, she never dreamed of flying beyond the skies; instead, she dreamt of walking the earth with grace. She's not just her father's little princess, but her mother's fierce queen. To her brother, she's the prettiest annoyance wrapped in unconditional love. Her strength lies in her dance - a rhythm that echoes even in the darkest nights and fiercest storms, an art she inherited from her mother. Behind her bright smile are secrets the world will never see, yet she carries them with gratitude, embracing every blessing from her deity. Telugu, her mother tongue, becomes her fierce weapon - a language reserved for playful scoldings and the occasional sharp retort. Far away from Radhya's sunlit world lives a soul drowning in shadows. Krishansh Pratap Singh - heir of a royal bloodline, yet belonging nowhere. The son of Naina and Vipul Pratap Singh, his life turned cold the day his mother and step father died saving their master's family. The court handed him over to his biological father's house, but love never followed him there. To them, he was not a son - he was a stain, a reminder of shame they could never erase, sheltered under their roof only because of his mother's inheritance. Except for a few loyal cousins, love eluded him. Time sculpted him into stone, hardened him into ice. Alone, he carved his own kingdom - a mafia empire standing tall without anyone's help. His friends became his fortress, his family of choice amidst betrayal. Yet even in this empire, one name still sparked fire in his veins - Arvi Srivastav. The girl he once adored, once teased, once admired with every playful pinch of her angry, red nose. But in his eyes, she became the reason his world shattered; the reason his parents never returned. He loved her once. Now, he only burns with hate. Or so he believes.

Could the heirs, who had never been independent in their choices, solve a murder case not even the most powerful forces could solve? Everyone holds a secret. One secret slipped, is one life taken.

With Someone Like Me

55 parts Complete

Love. Something that I've always believed in. Something my mom taught me is the most beautiful, precious thing in the world. Some people say gives your life a purpose, and some say it completes you. Some say it's beautiful, some say it's pain. But for me it's her. She's love. She's the only meaning of love I've ever known, Anaaya. I love her the way I've never thought it's possible, and I love every tiny thing about her I didn't know I'd love and I've lost count. And I still can't call her mine, but I knew since the beginning. I am hers. Only hers, more than I belonged to myself, I belonged to her. But here I am in the darkness of night, under the stars, as they witness her turning her back on me and walking away leaving me in this darkness where I couldn't find myself without her. Every drop of her tear burnt me into ashes, every ounce of her pain killed me a million times, I no longer know how many times I died seeing her hurt. Her dark eyes, the mirror of the night sky. No longer held the twinkle of the brightest stars. It was just darkness now thats surrounding me. I've lost her. My Anaaya. And standing here with a stray tear, I wonder... will she ever love someone like me. ******************* Love is pain, but it's also beautiful. And you cannot forget your first love. Author's Note : This book is the part two of the book "With A Girl Like Me". Before you read this, please read the part one.
