"Would it all be worth it if she 'saves the world?'"
What would you do if you woke-up one day in an unfamiliar world? What if you kept stumbling - Would you pick yourself back up?
Having already lived a childhood bouncing from home to home in Brooklyn, our reluctant heroine - Amelia La Graine - has her life turned upside down and inside-out when she travels back in time to the era of the American Industrial Revolution (circa 1820). There, she must discover why she was sent back and what she must do to go home.
Will one woman, stuck in the past, change the future of a young and budding country?
The first book in the "Combustion" trilogy weaves a tangled tale of heroism, deceit, danger, and manipulation - all while Amelia tries finding herself in an epoch that was never meant to be hers.

From Adi to Anant
Some souls don't meet for the first time-they remember. Bound by lifetimes, separated by time, Kanha and Achyut find each other again-drawn by rain, dreams, and the quiet ache of something unfinished. Every glance feels remembered. Every silence feels sacred. Every touch carries echoes of lives they once lived, and lives they are yet to live. In a world that keeps changing, their love doesn't. Across centuries and countless reincarnations, fate conspires to bring them together, even when the universe conspires against them. From the bustling streets of modern cities to the quiet lanes of distant pasts, from whispered secrets under moonlight to storms that shake the soul, they chase each other through memories and time, never quite free from the gravity of what binds them. They are the spark in the rain, the calm in the chaos, the unfinished story that refuses to end. Lovers torn apart by circumstance, reunited by destiny-every heartbreak only strengthens the thread that ties them. And even when the world forgets, their souls remember. Because some stories aren't written once-they're lived again and again. From the first breath to the last... From beginning to beyond... From Adi to Anant. Tropes & Themes: Reincarnation / Past Lives Soulmates / Eternal Love Fate and Destiny Unfinished Business / Memories Across Time Slow Burn / Enemies-to-Lovers Love Against All Odds / Timeless Connection

That is until she meets another man, a healer, and suddenly the two worlds, once so clear, begin to blur, forcing her to realize that maybe, just maybe, she is part of something much bigger than herself.Concluida
