"A Proposal Neither Wants" is a witty, slow-burn romantic drama set in the heart of modern Mumbai, where tradition and ambition often clash. When fiercely independent lifestyle journalist Aanya Mehta and suave, no-nonsense businessman Rohan Kapoor are pushed into an arranged meeting by their well-meaning families, both arrive determined to sabotage the evening.
But what begins as a battle of sarcasm and eye-rolls quickly turns into something far more complicated. Beneath the witty banter and guarded hearts lies a spark neither of them anticipated. As family expectations, career ambitions, and personal dreams collide, Aanya and Rohan must decide: is love worth the risk when everything else seems to be planned for you?

Shy, soft-hearted, and deeply rooted in her modest life, Naina never dreamed she'd be swept into the glittering chaos of the ultra-rich. And certainly not into the arms of a man who barely speaks, never smiles, and carries secrets colder than his steel gaze. Ryan Malhotra doesn't believe in love. He doesn't trust softness. But when family duty and business align, he agrees to an arranged marriage with the one woman who doesn't fear his name - just the world he lives in. What starts as a strategic alliance slowly sparks with unexpected emotions, clashing ideals, and dangerous attraction. As wedding functions unfold in royal palaces and under the unforgiving eye of the media, Naina and Ryan are forced to confront their buried pasts, internal fears, and growing desire. From awkward first meetings, protective touches, jealousy, and lingering glances - to the playful meddling of cousins and the scars that shaped them both - they begin to discover that love isn't always born from choice. Sometimes, it's destiny's most powerful storm. Two strangers. One arrangement. And a love neither saw coming. 🔑 Primary Keywords Arranged marriage romance Billionaire romance South Asian romance Indian royal romance Opposites attract Tycoon love story Teacher x CEO romance Rich boy poor girl romance Emotional slow burn romance Enemies to lovers Forced proximity romance Palace wedding romance Protective male lead Innocent girl love story Cultural romance fiction Family drama romance Fictional Indian romanceComplete

More Than Skin Deep
Aadya Kapoor has never needed anyone's permission to exist boldly. Confident, plus-size, and brilliantly successful, she is the co-founder of a rising skincare empire built with passion and purpose. She laughs loudly, works fiercely, and loves with her whole heart. And if the world thinks she should shrink herself to fit their standards-then the world can adjust.

This is a love story where they learn each other. Respect first. Friendship next. And then-love so deep it terrifies them both. Because sometimes, the greatest glow-up... is falling for the person who sees your worth exactly as you are.Complete
When You Weren't Looking
Set in early 2000s India, this is a slow-burn romance of unsaid feelings, stubborn silences, and hearts that take their time to fall. "I have loved you since I was six." But I never told him. Because he was my best friend's brother. Because he was eight years older. Because he never looked at me the way I looked at him. Years passed. I never moved on. Not even a little. And then... he came back-older, colder, and wearing a police uniform. Then, I did the one thing I never dared before. I wrote him a letter. A letter full of everything I had buried inside me for years. He read it. And broke my heart with five quiet words: "You are not my type." But fate, it seems, has a twisted sense of humour. One letter. One rejection. And one arranged marriage proposal later, suddenly, I'm his fiancée. He asked me to say no. I said yes.
The Perfect One
