When Aarohi Mehta, a fierce and independent businesswoman living in London, returns to India for work, she never expects to be pulled into her parents' long-forgotten dream-an arranged marriage with the son of their closest friends.
Vihaan Rathore is everything she doesn't want-cold, reserved, bound to tradition. But beneath his distant exterior hides a man who knows more about Aarohi, and their families, than he lets on.
What begins as a reluctant proposal soon spirals into a web of secrets, betrayals, and hidden pasts that tie both their families together. Between boardrooms and family feasts, stolen glances and whispered arguments, Aarohi and Vihaan must decide if love can survive when trust is the biggest risk of all.
A story of slow-burn romance, tangled family secrets, and the dangerous line between duty and desire.

Mr. Lover Lover
"She wanted freedom. He wanted peace. Love was never part of the plan." Aarav Mehra has everything-money, success, and a mother he adores more than anything. 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

Twisted Legacy
She was never meant to be his. Aarohi Mehra's life was signed away in a deal she never agreed to-forced into a marriage with Rishab Rathore, a man as powerful as he is dangerous. Cold. Calculated. Untouchable. He didn't ask for her love. He didn't need her trust. He only expected obedience. But Aarohi was never built to surrender. What begins as a war of control slowly unravels into something far more complicated-stolen glances, unspoken emotions, and a pull neither of them can deny. Between power, revenge, and buried truths, the lines between hate and desire begin to blur. Because the man she feared the most... is slowly becoming the only place she feels safe. And the woman who once tried to escape him... is the only one who can destroy him. In a world where loyalty is currency and love is a liability- what happens when two broken people start to become each other's home? "In a marriage built on power... Love is the greatest Rebellion."Complete
