Abhira Sharma has always been shielded by her mother's unwavering love-a love that kept her distant from the family she never knew. But when her mother's sudden death shatters her world, Abhira is thrust into the arms of strangers: her estranged grandparents, the very people who caused her mother so much pain. With a promise to honor her mother's dying wish, Abhira steps into a new life in a mansion that feels more like a prison than a home. Armaan Poddar seems to have it all-a thriving career, a picture-perfect life, and a family he should be grateful for. But the ghost of a lost love haunts him, leaving him adrift in a sea of regret. When Abhira enters his life as an intern, the last thing he expects is to be drawn to her. Brash, defiant, and determined to challenge him at every turn, she is everything he doesn't need. But as their paths intertwine, Abhira's fiery spirit begins to crack the walls around Armaan's heart. Amid their shared struggles, a friendship forms-unexpected, raw, and full of painful truths. In a world where love and loss have left them both broken, can they find the strength to heal each other?
