When their paths collide-through a consulting deal neither of them fully wants-the lines blur. He's methodical. She's impulsive. He avoids mess. She thrives in it.

The New Classic
𝐀𝐚𝐥𝐢𝐲𝐚 I'd sworn off of love and men after the fiasco that was my last relationship. Until I spent one steamy and passionate night with a dark haired stranger. A man that I thought I'd never see again. Until I found out that he was my new boss. I absolutely could not get involved with Neil - I'd had enough drama to last me a lifetime. But it wasn't long before the lines drawn between us became blurred. I just hoped that this time, my heart would make it out in one piece. 𝐍𝐞𝐢𝐥 Taking over my father's company as CEO all of a sudden was the last thing I ever wanted. That is, until I saw her. The woman I'd spent one night with. The very woman I hadn't stopped thinking about since. And she just so happened to be my employee. Which meant that she was off limits. I was supposed to stay away. But I couldn't help myself from falling for her. Now, the only challenge was convincing Aaliya whether whatever this was between us was worth pursuing or not.

Unavoidable. He watched her from a distance. She worked like she didn't care, spoke only when needed, and stayed far away from his world. But was she really just a secretary? Because Dev wasn't just a CEO. And Aarohi? She wasn't there just to type emails. In a game where secrets breathe just beneath the surface- Can feelings survive the truth?

Bound By Love ✔
Formerly, This Book Is Known As "TWO HEARTS ENTWINED TOGETHER" He thought she betrayed him. She thought love would bring him back. Arnav and Aaradhana were soulmates... until silence tore them apart. "I loved you like my whole world, Aaradhana." "Then why did you destroy it with your doubt, Arnav?" Three years ago, one lie whispered in the dark changed everything. Arnav believed the worst. Aaradhana chose to stay silent-out of love, out of fear, out of pain. And just like that, a love so pure turned into heartbreak. "I died every day waiting for you," she whispers. "You should've screamed the truth instead of whispering lies," he replies, eyes burning. Now, after years of distance and despair, fate throws them together again-not through their own story, but through the blooming love of their younger siblings. "What a joke... love runs in the family," he mocks, eyes cold. "It used to," she says softly, "until you taught it how to bleed." Aaradhana never stopped loving him. She clung to every shared smile, every unspoken word, every promise he once made. Arnav? He buried his love beneath rage, convincing himself it was betrayal, not love, that lived in her silence. "You still haunt me, Aaradhana. I see you in every shadow, every silence, every damn heartbeat." "Then why do you keep running from the only place you ever belonged?" As secrets unravel and the past claws its way back, they must face the truth: Love never truly leaves. But pride? Pride can burn down everything it touches. Will Arnav open his eyes before it's too late? Will Aaradhana's patience finally be rewarded-or shattered beyond repair? A storm of emotions. A past that refuses to die. And a love that still dares to hope. 🕰️ Start Date: 3rd April 2017 🕰️ End Date: 18th June 2017 🕰️ Edited Date: November 2025Complete
