Calcutta, India. 1899

Being a woman in this age means being tied under the shackles created by the British and an equally orthodox society. 

Headstrong and outgoing, Anvesha doesn't care what people think about her. She is not one of those women who stay in their homes and pop children for their husbands. She is determined to pry her freedom. 

Alexander Stewart is a "childishly" arrogant man of eighteen. His journey to life begins when he comes to India with his two best friends, Matthew Hemmings and Jordan Wedlock.  

The day he crosses paths with the fierce looking Indian woman, he's sure that coming to India was the worst of his decisions. 

But will time change his mind?
A feeling other than hatred; would something develop? 


(Descriptions would really be the death of me. Don't be disappointed, give this book a chance ^_^ )

A/N:

Indian Version [Duet Book 1] ~ Ansh Malhotra A prodigy student since a tender age, Ansh had been at the top of his school and continued to be the topper even in his current years in the Mumbai University, along with casually winning some State level and National level competitions in studies as well as in Badminton, his favorite sport. His usually tousled, wavy hair and sharp honey eyes enhanced his ivory skin and his features radiated the Popular Good Guy vibe. But his expressions portrayed him as an aloof guy, who might roast you into a chicken with just his stare, if you ever dare to cross his path. Everything was alright in his life until he attended a wedding, where he fell for someone, someone unknown to him but also someone who enticed him with her looks. Everything was alright until he fell in love with his bestfriend's sister. ~ Ishika Aggrawal The beloved daughter of a loving couple, Ishika got princess treatment her whole life. Thus, she developed a longing for an unknown freedom. But something held her back from living her life. Maybe it was her grades that never reached her parents' level or maybe it was her self-depriving nature that refused to accept she was progressing. Her lengthy black hair that slightly fell into waves and her brown doe eyes complimented sun-kissed complexion. If we go by her looks, she looks like someone whom you cannot have, whom no one can have. But, all her life she yearned for something quite opposite. During the 2nd year of her B.Com, she visited her cousin in Mumbai unaware that someone, like a sudden gush of wind, would arrive in her life, changing it completely. He would throw away the black and white glasses through which she saw the world and fill in colors which she never perceived or heard of. ~ Enjoy reading a stupid story about someone's first ishq (love).

Highest ranking: #9 Romance & #4 in General Fiction!!! WARNING: I wrote this book when I was 17 so there is a ton of grammatical errors so please read at your own risk! *** Marriage is a sacred union tying two people that love each other, together. It brings happiness and blessings. Or that's what it should be. The marriage between traditional Karishma Varghese and the cold-hearted Jai Agarwal was anything but. Horrible circumstances force these two strangers together. Now bound by law, they struggle with feelings of hate in what they think is a loveless marriage, both holding deep, dark secrets, capable of ruining everything. Those very secrets and differences, however, could be what brings these two together in the end. ❧ "Just because we're legally bound together, doesn't mean I love you." He leaned down, spitting out the next words menacingly. "And I never will." I tried to hold back the tears as his amber eyes blazed with anger. "O-okay." "Now, stay out of my fucking personal life or I won't hesitate to ruin yours." As he left, I broke down. The truth was, I never thought that someone could hate me so much that they'd look at me like they wanted to kill me. Especially not if that someone was supposed to be my husband. ❧ Credit to @IamSumayya for making this absolutely gorgeous cover! Thank you so much for taking your time to make it! ❤️ PS. Highly unedited. Don't read if you're gonna point out every single mistake.

QUARTER LIFE CRISIS by Writix22
63 parts Complete Mature
Cupid never had a chance in their messy, parental-restricted love story Karishma Jha, a twenty-one-year-old recent graduate with the world at her feet if only she chose to face it. Plagued with the worries of the future and yet healing from the scars of her past, she was yet to pay any heed to the present. She was the queen of the world of What-ifs What if I never get a job? What if I never do anything worthwhile? What if I am not here tomorrow? What if someone new moves next door? Still struggling to live one day at a time, she is hit with yet another surprise: a new neighbor, Rishabh Mehta. His arrival gives her the opportunity to take a step out of her cocooned world, to do something daring for once in her sheltered life. What if a girl with perpetually cold feet chooses to befriend a boy who lives like there is no tomorrow? When Rishabh Mehta moved to his aunt's place in Bangalore, the last thing he expected was to deal with the girl next door. Shrew, grump, ornery, he knew the many nicknames of her, except her real name. She proved true to her description when, one night, she cuts off the wire of his music system in the middle of a raging party. That was his first impression of hers. He also never expected her unrelenting efforts to befriend him. When he finally gives in, the possibility of tomorrow increases with every shared laughter and stolen glance. Will their love survive self-imposed obstacles, helicopter parents, and the two-foot gap between their balconies? Or, will it remain a fond memory to smile upon when a day gets a bit more difficult than the rest? TRIGGER WARNING: Though this story is mostly a feel-good rom-com, it does address certain heavy topics like illness, suicide attempts, and domestic violence.
