When fiery, independent Ishita Malhotra is forced into a marriage with cold, emotionally distant billionaire Rivan Raichand, the sparks that fly between them aren't born of passion-they're the kind that burn. They come from resentment, anger, and two fiercely stubborn hearts locked in a bond neither of them chose. But with family honor at stake and business empires hanging in the balance, walking away isn't an option.
She can't stand his arrogance-the way he commands every room, speaks in clipped words, and treats emotions like they're weaknesses.
He loathes her defiance-how she meets his coldness with fire, challenges every word he says, and refuses to back down.
They become strangers sharing a home, clashing in small, frustrating ways-over dinner, over silence, over everything. But between accidental glances and quiet nights filled with tension, something begins to change. Hatred softens. The walls begin to crack. And underneath the bitterness, a dangerous, simmering desire brews.
Rivan-who's spent his life building walls around his heart-starts to feel the very thing he's always run from. Love. Obsession. Longing. For a woman who was never meant to be more than a business deal.
But Ishita isn't easy to win. She's guarded, hurt, and still haunted by a past she's never fully escaped.
Will Rivan's slow, burning love be enough to melt the ice around her heart? Or will their differences-and the secrets between them-tear them apart before love even has a chance to bloom?
