Falling For My Best Friend's Brother
Nisha has always known the rules: stay loyal to her best friend, never cross the line, and keep her feelings in check. But when Vihaan Mehta-the charming, confident, and dangerously off-limits older brother of her best friend Kiara-starts noticing her in ways she can't ignore, every rule she's lived by begins to crumble.
He's everything she's been warned against, yet everything she can't stop thinking about. Every stolen glance, every accidental brush, every secret smile pulls her deeper into a world she knows is forbidden... but irresistibly hers.
In a game of hidden desires, unspoken words, and hearts on the edge, Nisha must decide: follow her loyalty, or follow her heart.

#Book1 of The Heart Series (English and Tanglish) VIHAAN MALHOTRA × INDHU RAJAN "That's what you do, isn't it?" His voice was sharp, edged with something dangerously close to anger. I frowned. What the hell is he talking about? "What-" I started, but he cut me off. "Always craving attention. From everyone... from every man-"The words barely left his mouth before my hand struck his cheek. A sharp slap, loud in the quiet room. Wow. Four years. Four whole years since I last saw him, and the first thing I do? Slap my first love. Great. Just great. ──── ୨୧ ──── Indhu walked away from love, heartbreak, and the boy who once shielded her in the rain, Vihaan. He was her first love, the one she believed never saw her the same way. What she thought was an unrequited crush turned into a painful memory, marked by misunderstandings and unresolved emotions. They met again through the wedding of Indhu's best friend, Aadya and Vihaan's older brother Arnav, an event that should have been a happy beginning but instead left her heartbroken. Convinced she had moved on, she built a life on her own terms-until Vihaan reappeared. Vihaan, cold and unreadable, never let anyone get close-especially not Indhu. He buried his feelings, mistaking distance for control. But when the truth behind their past finally comes to light, he refuses to let her slip away again. Now bound to the man she tried to forget, Indhu finds herself trapped between past wounds and present desires. And as possessive tension, lingering resentment, and years of unspoken longing collide, she fights to guard her heart while Vihaan struggles to claim what was always his. But in a game of denial and temptation, who will surrender first? ──── ୨୧ ──── (This is my first book, so there may be a few mistakes or small inconsistencies, but it won't affect the reading. I'll be fixing everything once the book is completed❤️😭)
Hidden Feelings Arranged Hearts
Not every love story begins with love at first sight. Sometimes, it begins with a quiet crush, one that never saw the light of day. She once loved in silence. A shy schoolgirl who never confessed, she kept her feelings hidden in the pages of her diary. To her family and friends, she was laughter, sunshine, and dreams... but only she knew of the boy who lived in her heart. He was calm, composed, and distant. A studious soul who never paid attention to the giggles in the hallway, the stolen glances, or the silent admiration of the girls around him. To him, the world was about discipline, duty, and ambition - not fleeting emotions. Years passed. Life moved forward. She built her dreams, he chased his ambitions. But destiny has a way of weaving the forgotten back into the present. When families bring them face-to-face again, will it simply be another arranged match... Or the chance for her hidden feelings to finally be seen? "She once loved him in silence. He never noticed her at all. Destiny is about to change everything."
