"This time, if he wants her heart-he'll have to earn it."
She loved him in high school.
He liked her too-but said the exact opposite.
Years later, Tanvi Mehra is thriving: bold, stylish, and way too busy designing dream homes to think about old heartbreaks. Until her parents spring a surprise-an arranged marriage to Aarav Malhotra.
The boy who crushed her heart... and now, the CEO who might just steal it again.
Aarav isn't the same teenager anymore. He's smooth, successful, and hiding the truth:
He never hated her.
He just didn't have the guts to say yes back then.
Now he's getting a second chance.
She's planning to make him work really hard for it.

His Arranged Bride
Aarav Malhotra - the reserved and soft-spoken CEO of Malhotra Hotels - has always put family above everything else.

But as shy glances turn into warm conversations and small gestures grow into affection, they begin to discover that maybe, just maybe, fate knows their hearts better than they do. A tale of slow-burn love, emotional connection, and two introverted souls learning to open up - one gentle step at a time.

She's soft in the way she speaks, fierce in the way she loves, and carries that sunshine energy that makes people feel lighter just by standing near her. She believes in soulmate-level love, in rituals, in anklets that jingle when she walks toward a future she's always imagined for herself. Abhinav Malhotra, 30, a CEO carved out of discipline and silence, moves through life like a man who's forgotten what warmth feels like. His world is made of glass offices, cold coffee, and unspoken fears.

But every rule shakes when her warmth collides with his silence, when her middle-class softness enters his billionaire world, when her brightness starts cracking the walls he's spent years building.

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.
Twisted Legacy
He chose her from the shadows. Now, she must survive the spotlight. Aarohi Mehra was raised to stay quiet, to obey, to never step into the line of fire that came with power and legacy. She was just another name in a forgotten proposal-until Rishab Rathore, heir to the Rathore empire, handpicked her as his bride. His decision wasn't about love-it was about control, revenge, and the perfect pawn in a decades-old family feud. Thrust into a gilded cage where every move is watched and every silence is expected, Aarohi must learn to survive a world built on manipulation and secrets. But as the walls close in and the man she married reveals both cruelty and vulnerability, Aarohi begins to question everything-including herself. In a marriage where love is a lie and rebellion could cost her everything, Aarohi must decide: stay silent and fade away, or risk it all to reclaim her voice. A dark arranged marriage romance where power meets defiance, and survival demands more than obedience-it demands fire.Complete
Mr. Lover Lover

As a devoted son and a man forged in sacrifice, love and marriage have never been on his list. He's spent his life building a future for the woman who raised him alone. But when a marriage proposal lands in his bag-along with a photograph of a girl with the softest smile he's ever seen-his world begins to shift. Maya Reddy is 21, caged by the love of two overprotective parents who've never let her breathe. She doesn't dream of fairy tales or soulmates. She just wants out. For her, marriage is not about love-it's an escape plan. When Aarav and Maya meet through a traditional setup neither of them truly believes in, everything begins to burn-hesitations, ideals, and every line they swore they'd never cross. One wants freedom. The other wants control. One wants love. The other fears it. But fate doesn't ask for permission. This is not your average arranged marriage story. This is about passion born out of silence, love that begins with a no, and two hearts crashing in all the wrong places... just to find the right one.Complete

As the heir to one of the country's most powerful business empires, he chooses to hide his surname and legacy, craving a normal college experience, far from the weight of expectations. In the midst of this quiet life, he falls in love for the first time-with Veer Mathur, a boy from an equally elite family. Their bond was real, tender, and hopeful... until the day Aarav finally gathered the courage to reveal his truth. But fate had other plans. Before Aarav could open up, Veer broke his heart. He ended their relationship abruptly, confessing that his parents had arranged his marriage to a girl from their social circle. He didn't want to defy them-and just like that, Aarav's first love story crumbled, leaving him shattered. As he struggled to piece himself back together, a new twist entered his life-his parents proposed a marriage. But not just any alliance-it was with Siddharth Singhania, the enigmatic and reserved heir of the prestigious Singhania family... and Veer Mathur's uncle from his mother's side. Siddharth was a man known for his silence more than his actions, a mystery wrapped in discipline and power. Aarav was left stunned-was this destiny's strange way of healing him, or was it the beginning of a storm he couldn't see coming? Either way, fate had already chosen its path.
