Ruined Hearts

Sia Mathur has spent her whole life running-from danger, from betrayal, from the past that refuses to stop hunting her. Adhiraj Chakravarthy has spent his whole life searching-for truth, for justice, and, after a brutal heartbreak, for a reason to trust again. His past lover's betrayal shattered something inside him, leaving behind a vow carved in stone: never fall in love again. Never lose control. Never give someone that power.

But fate doesn't care about vows.

When Adhiraj and Sia collide, the impact is sharp, chaotic, and impossible to ignore. She hides behind fierce strength, her wounds buried deep. He hides behind cold walls, refusing to let another heartbreak destroy him. Yet somehow, their scars recognize each other-pulling them closer, even when they both try to pull away.

As danger tightens around Sia, threatening to expose everything she's running from, Adhiraj becomes the only person standing between her and destruction. And when Sia's fear meets Adhiraj's refusal to love again, the connection between them becomes a battlefield neither expected.

This is a story of two broken souls-one running from the world, and one running from love-finding each other in the ruins of their pasts... and discovering that sometimes the heart protects itself by choosing the very person it was never supposed to.
