Two former best friends. Two forced marriages. One buried betrayal. Arjun makes a shocking move: he forcefully marries Vaayu Kapoor, Vihaan's younger brother a bold, bratty firecracker with a silver tongue and zero fear. In retaliation, Vihaan marries Arjun's younger brother Vansh a soft-spoken, innocent soul who's never known violence, only devotion. To the world, it's a brutal war of egos and vengeance. But behind closed doors? It's all part of a deadly game. Love. Power. Blood. In this world, the most dangerous bond... is the one written in revenge.

Callum Montgomery, the general's son, is a walking storm reckless, arrogant, and untouchable. No rule could contain him. No person could tame him. That is, until his father brings in a calm but sharp-tongued therapist named Elian, a man from a quiet, ordinary life far from the chaos of military power. Elian never expected his next client to be a spoiled brute with a punchable smirk and a temper as dangerous as his past. And Callum never expected a simple civilian to stand up to him to challenge him, resist him, and see right through the armor he's worn for years. What starts as fiery arguments and endless power struggles slowly turns into late-night conversations, stolen glances, and a tension that's harder to ignore with every passing day. They weren't supposed to feel anything. But love doesn't follow orders. A story of pride, power, and the unexpected softness of falling for the last person you'd ever expect.

Fine. I'll marry him. But I swear, I'll train that guy like a puppy. Sit. Speak. Die. and THEN dad smiles, Actually beta... that's the real problem. Your uncle doesn't have a son. He has... a daughter. WHAT THE ACTUAL-?! After Accidental Amore, I thought of writing another serial but this time it's Thai. Basically, a Thai lesbian drama with just a sprinkle of Indian masala.

When Max's parents go on vacation, he decides to spend the week with his best friend, Lilly, who also happens to be the sister of his long-time straight crush. Spending seven days with Lilly, Jake and his girlfriend during the summer break before college starts can't be that bad, right? 'Imagine falling in love with a straight guy. Well, that's exactly what I did. It's a story as old as time, and I'm trying my best to get over him, but the fact that his sister is my best friend doesn't help, along with his suspiciously odd girlfriend that keeps popping up at inconvenient times. We really are failing at crushing 101- falling for someone you can never have.' CONTENT WARNING: My characters enjoy cursing (thanks, Jake), and this story delves into darker topics such as mental health, issues faced by minority groups, includes violence and more.

Zenande Langa, a guarded director whose chair, company, and heart are all haunted by loss - and the only person who sees past all three is Zwelibanzi, her driver. Bound by loyalty to her dead father and divided by pride, silence, and class, their daily 6:40 AM rides become a battleground of unspoken feelings and hard truths. As she fights to save her family's legacy from ruin, Zenande learns that the hardest thing to survive isn't the accident that broke her body, but the man who refuses to look away.

Introduction. Some people don't cry for help. They just... stop asking. Eraya was one of them. She existed in corners, in the last bench of a lecture hall, in the shadow of her own hoodie, in silences that felt too heavy for someone her age. No one questioned it. No one looked twice. Except Zivah. Zivah, who carried light like it belonged to her. Zivah, who laughed too easily, loved too deeply, and never realized that the softest hearts are the ones that break the hardest. She wasn't searching for a love story. She already had a life full of warmth, of people, of everything Eraya wasn't. But something about that silence, something about the way Eraya flinched at nothing, felt wrong. And Zivah couldn't look away. Because sometimes, love doesn't begin with attraction. Sometimes it begins with noticing what everyone else ignores. What she didn't know was this, some silences are not chosen. Some homes are not safe. And some girls are not waiting to be loved... they are waiting to be saved. And when the moment came, when the world decided Eraya was nothing more than a burden to be traded away, Zivah made a choice. Not a loud one. Not a heroic one. Just a quiet, trembling decision that changed everything. "If no one wants her... I do." This is not a story of perfect love. It is a story of staying. Of unlearning fear. Of holding someone so gently... they forget what it felt like to be hurt. Because sometimes, the softest rescues are the ones that save you the most.

Vishaal Agnihotri-a quiet soul in his third year of BTech-harbours a love as deep and gentle as the ocean for his best friend. He watches her with silent devotion, words of longing forever trembling on the edge of unspoken confessions. Akshata Kulkarni-his laughter, his confidante-loves him with a fierceness she has taught herself to hide. She guards their friendship like something holy, terrified that one whispered desire might shatter the sacred bond they share. This is the story of two best friends, hopelessly, completely in love-yet caught in the delicate web of their own fear. Afraid to break the precious purity of what they have, they dance around their feelings with aching grace, their hearts speaking a language only they understand. Come, trace the tender ache of love unspoken. Witness the quiet tragedy and hope of two souls who would rather lose themselves in silent longing than risk losing each other.

A love story that started with a CRASH, in a library, on a shitty day for Trucilla Cameron. Tru is a hopeless romantic. Heartbreak happens over and over again, pain after pain, fall after fall. She always looked forward to that; she always saw it coming. Fall after fall, again and again, girl after girl, boy after boy. She tolerated it.. Until she meets a loud and blue haired girl in a library on the shittiest day of Tru's year. She didn't plan to fall for Andy Giberson. It just happened, and suddenly she was over the other girl, Esther, that had broken her heart just a week before. Tru brushes her feelings off, telling herself not to be stupid, and that somebody as lively and as perfect as Andy couldn't possibly find interest in a gloomy nerd like Trucilla. But surprisingly to Tru, the heartbreak doesn't come. She waits, and she waits, barely even trying, fucking up... but Andy stays. She always stays. Until Fall comes again, and she's still there. ☆☆☆ "My name's Andy. Andy Giberson. I know, stupid name, hehe," She smiles. "What's yours?" Tru looks away, blushing. "Trucilla." Andy smiles widely, holding her hand out to shake, which has colorful bandaids all over it, and yellow painted nails. "That's a pretty name! I wish my name wasn't so generic.." she jokes, tilting her head. "I don't think your name is generic," Tru quickly mutters out, turning her head towards Andy's. "I think it's pretty.." Their eyes meet, and stay there for a while. Tru slowly looks away.... She puts the last few books back on the bookshelf, her eyes avoiding Andy's. Andy smiles a little, looking at Tru. "You think I'm pretty?" Andy watches as Tru exits the library, a small smile on her face. She looks down at her hands, feeling giddy. "I like her. She's cute." ☆☆☆ #5 fall #2 gayrights #3 girlfriends

ME - The Beast in Me is a psychological myth set in the suspended city of Superbia, where the Ego becomes a god, the mind a labyrinth, and identity a mask you can't take off. If you enjoy books like Percy Jackson but want a darker, more adult myth, this novel transforms classical hero trials into inner battles. Instead of Greek gods, Superbia's Pantheon rules the psyche: Narcisa Covert - the Shadow Goddess, mother of personality disorders. Overer - the Lord of Excess and Perfection. Sixteen semi-divine archetypes shape the soul's journey. The book unfolds in Thirty Acts: ten Admirations, ten Martyrs, ten Excesses - a descent into the self where the Beast is never outside you, but within. If you're searching for Percy Jackson-like mythology for adults, this novel turns divine trials into psychological truth. The Beast doesn't come from outside. It comes from you.
