With a heart of gold, she finds joy in helping others, seeing kindness not as a virtue but as a way of life. Her brown eyes shimmer with dreams too big for the small town she comes from, and with nothing but hope in her heart, she steps into the vibrant chaos of Delhi, ready to carve a future of her own. But the city is not always kind to dreamers, and Tara is yet to learn that not all paths are lined with roses. Vikrant Singh Rathore - handsome, sharp, and dangerously arrogant.

He neither believes in destiny nor bows to emotions-until he meets her. Two souls, as different as day and night. One, a dreamer with stars in her eyes. The other, a man who has never learned to look beyond himself. What happens when their worlds collide? Will Tara's innocence soften Vikrant's arrogance, or will he shatter her dreams before she even learns to fly?
