    Back-cover Blurb Kathiravan Vedhvardhan is the heir to a powerful political family in rural Tamil Nadu-a man shaped by tradition, pride, and a belief that a wife's place is beside her husband, without question.

When an old family tradition turns their names into husband and wife, Malar's dreams become the first thing Kathiravan expects her to sacrifice. But marriage doesn't give him ownership of her. And Malar isn't willing to become another silent woman in the Vedhvardhan household. As family honour, political ambition, generations of tradition, and a dangerous obsession collide, Malar must decide how much of herself she is willing to fight to keep. Because sometimes the hardest battle isn't leaving a powerful man- 𝒊𝒕𝒔 𝒓𝒆𝒇𝒖𝒔𝒊𝒏𝒈 𝒕𝒐 𝒃𝒆𝒄𝒐𝒎𝒆 𝒑𝒐𝒘𝒆𝒓𝒍𝒆𝒔𝒔 𝒃𝒆𝒔𝒊𝒅𝒆 𝒉𝒊𝒎.....

    This book explores the quiet places where feelings grow larger than reality. Each poem reflects the moments we interpret, the gestures we magnify, and the emotions that expand beyond what truly happened. Inside these pages you'll find heartbreak, subtle betrayals, and a soft, lingering melancholy - the kind that comes from seeing more, sensing more, imagining more than the world ever showed. These poems trace the delicate line between what we live and what our hearts create in silence. A requiem for what almost was, and for everything the soul believed it could become.

However, we often lose focus and flee into a world that isn't real. Because of this, we don't realize how time is running away from us and loved ones are slipping away.

    Writing songs in his bedroom, 24 year-old Tai Vuong wonders if there's a day he can share his music without pretending to be someone he's not. His invisibility powers aren't helping--it's just one more aspect to hide about himself in a world where expectations are sky-high and one slip-up can break his career. But when playing pretend is the cost for playing onstage, Tai must ask himself what reaching your dreams really means. As Tai meets more people and ordinary things add up to extraordinary circumstances, he realizes he doesn't want to change who he is. He needs to change how he sees himself. Set in the heart of Toronto, Backstage follows an autistic musician's journey to discovering what it means to be yourself.

    A perfect kingdom. A flawless royal family. A truth no one is willing to speak. Leah knows better than anyone that the crown is not a symbol of honor, it is a burden. One built on silence, sacrifice, and secrets that refuse to stay buried. When a new princess is brought into the royal family, the cracks begin to show. And the deeper Amara looks, the clearer it becomes... Something is missing. Something no one will explain. And some truths were never meant to be uncovered.

    Hamari Kya Khata? What happens when the home that once felt like your safest place slowly begins to feel unfamiliar? A poem about growing up, the weight of expectations, the quiet ache of becoming "parayi" in your own home, and the painful question that lingers somewhere between a daughter and her parents: Hamari kya khata? And perhaps, somewhere between changing times and changing circumstances, there is no one to blame - only a story that took a different turn. Originally written in Roman Urdu, followed by its English rendering and an author's note. "Hamari Kya Khata?" is one of the selected poems from my published poetry collection, 'Raqs-e-Haqeeqat - The Twirls Of Reality', by Dr Ayesha Noorain A.

    À 18 ans, Hanae Takahashi a déjà essayé presque tout. Peinture, piano, photographie, danse, cuisine, poterie... Elle s'intéresse à tout, apprend vite, mais finit toujours par se lasser. Alors que tout le monde autour d'elle semble déjà savoir ce qu'il veut faire de sa vie, Hanae n'a aucune idée des études qu'elle veut choisir ni du métier qu'elle pourrait aimer. Pour trouver une réponse, elle se rend dans un centre spécialisé dans l'orientation et les tests de personnalité. C'est là qu'elle rencontre Riku Nakamura, 19 ans, stagiaire pour l'été. Sportif, sociable et beaucoup trop amusé par ses propres blagues, il ne croit pas vraiment aux questionnaires capables de décider de l'avenir de quelqu'un. Alors il lui propose quelque chose de beaucoup plus simple. Passer tout l'été ensemble à essayer des activités différentes jusqu'à ce qu'Hanae trouve enfin quelque chose qui lui donne envie de rester. Peinture. Karaoké. Poterie. Cuisine. Photographie. Travail dans le petit commerce de ses parents. Et tout ce qu'ils pourront imaginer. Mais au fil des semaines, Hanae commence à se demander si elle cherche vraiment une passion... ou simplement une raison de ne pas avoir peur de son avenir. Et lorsque la rentrée approche, une nouvelle question apparaît. Et si la chose qu'elle avait le plus envie de garder de cet été n'était pas une activité, mais lui ? Parce qu'on ne peut pas toujours savoir où l'on va. Parfois, il faut simplement trouver quelqu'un avec qui accepter de se perdre.

    Tyler pens Make a Coincidence Happen, a story born from love and loss. Inspired by Crystal, who, even in memory, couldn't bear to see him mourn, he weaves a world of impossible connections and second chances. With vivid details and rich backstories from Aki and Yesia, the story unfolds in a reality both familiar and strangely new. But does fate truly haunt us, trapping us in cycles of the past? Or does it merely offer a glimpse, a subtle nudge, urging us to choose: to embrace the path ahead or to surrender to what was? "What is meant to happen will happen!"
