As the oldest daughter in an Asian family sacrifice came wrapped in silence, chai and a little bundle of joy that is her younger sister.

What happens when she meet a man clearly living the life she dreamed for herself?

Ayan is living the life he dreamed but he knows that there always is a cost but this one was not paid by him.
He's aware of the sister who crushed her dreams so he could live his.
But the career he loves came with a lot of animals, late night emergencies and a broken relationship.
What happens when he is forced into another with someone who's dream he's living?
Is his heart still intact enough to be broken again?
"Some dreams aren't stolen - they're handed to you with a smile. And somehow, that's worse."

Ayaat × Shahmeer ( Also can be read as a standalone novel) Top-1 in India . . . . . . . . . "Let me make this clear from the very beginning-" But she interrupted. Lifting her veil slowly, She faced him. Her tone was calm, but her soul trembled behind her words. "I don't have any expectations from this bond," she said steadily. "You've given me your name-that's enough. You'll always be my sister's husband. I'm not here to demand a place in your life. I know exactly where I stand." He watched her, caught off guard by her sudden fire yet nodded. "Good. That saves us both the trouble. And Stick to that. Because I won't tolerate promises you can't keep." He said sharply. Her scent lingered between them...a soft, familiar trace of coconut. He took a small step back, as if her presence had caught him off guard. As if it stirred something he wasn't ready to face-something unsettling, achingly familiar... and utterly forbidden. ★★★★★★★★★★★ When two broken souls, Ayaat and Shahmeer, are bound by an unwanted marriage, they treat each other as nothing more than a forbidden past. Grief, guilt, duty, hate.. defines their bond... until fate begins to rewrite their story. They fall.....slowly, unknowingly, and effortlessly. But will they remain shackled by hate, guilt?

"You look like her." His voice had clear amusement in it. "What?" This escaped my lips when my mind stopped trying to comprehend what he meant. It was getting very messy to understand. "But I'll always love her." With that, he dozed off.
