Mehera Singh Rathore is cold, ruthless, and the undefeated CEO of the Rathore empire. She rules her family with an iron fist and her company with an icy glare. But beneath the armor lies a bleeding heart-a sister consumed by grief. When her younger brother ends up in a coma after a horrific car accident, Mehera is convinced she knows the culprit: her new sister-in-law, the innocent and naive Aashi.
Aashi Sharma is warmth personified. Bubbly, trusting, and breathtakingly beautiful, she married into the Rathore family hoping for love. Instead, she finds herself drawn to the one woman who looks at her with frost in her eyes. When that cold exterior finally cracks, and Mehera begins to show her possessive, tender side, Aashi falls helplessly in love.
She fell first. She fell hardest.
But Aashi doesn't know the devastating truth: Mehera's affection is a calculated trap. Driven by a thirst for revenge, Mehera's plan is cruel and simple-make Aashi fall in love, gain her absolute trust, and then shatter her into a million pieces.
There's just one flaw in the plan: somewhere between the rainy nights, the gentle touches, and the whispered confessions, Mehera falls first and hardest, too.
Before Mehera can abandon her revenge and confess the truth, Aashi overhears the horrifying reality. Every "I love you" was a weapon. Every kiss was a battlefield. Her entire relationship was a lie designed to break her.
Heartbroken and utterly destroyed, Aashi disappears.
Days later, the truth finally comes to light when her brother wakes from his coma to reveal that Aashi wasn't the driver that night-she was the hero who saved his life.
Now, the truth has cleared Aashi's name, but it's too late. The damage is done. The woman Mehera vowed to destroy is already broken, and the love they shared is reduced to ash.
How do you apologize for deliberately breaking the only heart you've ever loved? How do you piece back together a soul you shattered with your own hands?
