BOOK 1 OF CLAIMED HEART SERIES

• RUDRA VEER OBEROI × AVANTHIKA MALHOTRA

Power runs in his veins.
Control is his weapon.
And love is a weakness Rudra Veer Oberoi never planned to have.

The night before his arranged marriage, he allowed himself one reckless mistake.

A dimly lit club.
A pair of haunting eyes.
One forbidden night with a stranger whose name he didn't even ask.

It was supposed to end there.

But fate had other plans.

Because the girl he touched that night...

Was the step-sister of the woman he was supposed to marry.

And when the bride disappeared on the wedding day, leaving behind whispers and humiliation

The families needed a solution.

Fast.

So they chose the easiest one.

Replace the bride.

Now the stranger from his darkest mistake stands beside him at the altar...

Dressed in red.

She was never meant to be his.
He was never meant to want her.

But suddenly she was Mrs. Oberoi.

But in a marriage born from scandal and silence

Desire is far more dangerous than hatred.

Two souls bound by accident.
One secret night they can't erase.

Because sometimes...

The replacement becomes the obsession.
