BETWEEN DUTY & LOVE

She never planned to fall in love.

Ananya Sharma had built her life around responsibility. At Shantivan Residential School, she knew exactly who she was-a teacher, a caretaker, and a woman who had learned to put everyone else's needs before her own.

Then he came into her life.

He wasn't supposed to matter.

He wasn't supposed to become the person she looked for in every crowded room, the voice she secretly waited to hear, or the reason her carefully controlled world began to feel different.

But love doesn't always arrive at the right time.

And sometimes, the person who makes your heart feel alive is the very person you're not allowed to choose.

When love asks her to follow her heart and duty asks her to walk away, Ananya finds herself trapped between two worlds.

One promises the life she never knew she wanted.

The other is the life she has spent years protecting.

What happens when doing the right thing means breaking your own heart?

Between Duty and Love is a story of love, sacrifice, choices, and the painful truth that sometimes...

loving someone doesn't mean you get to keep them.
