    Anaya Rajvansh had everything once-a loving husband, three beautiful children, and a family she believed she could trust. Unfortunately, she trusted the wrong people. She believed every lie they told her, ignored every warning from the people who genuinely loved her, and pushed away the one man who had always stood beside her-Armaan Rathore. By the time Anaya discovered the truth, her marriage, family, reputation, and happiness were already destroyed. Then she died. But fate gives her one impossible gift. A second life. Anaya wakes up ten years in the past-with every memory intact. This time, she knows exactly who betrayed her. But instead of confronting them, she does something far more dangerous. She pretends to be the same innocent, easily manipulated Anaya they remember. She smiles. She agrees. She trusts them. And secretly watches them walk straight into the traps they're creating for themselves. But while Anaya is busy planning revenge, there's one problem she never anticipated... Armaan. The husband she once failed to trust. The man who notices that his supposedly naïve wife is suddenly hiding far too many secrets. And then there are their three chaotic children-sensible Aadhya, mischievous Reyansh, and adorable little Siya-who turn Anaya's carefully planned second life into an unpredictable comedy of errors. This time, Anaya doesn't want to simply punish the people who destroyed her. She wants to save the family she lost. Because in her first life, she trusted the wrong people. In her second, she's going to let the wrong people trust her. 😌

    Andrea Wren had experienced countless setbacks in her life, the greatest of them all being the loss of her parents in a hit-and-run. The unsolved mystery tormented her for years, she believed that there was more than the court revealed. Now that things are eventually looking up and she has a lead on the case, an intimidating man lurking in the shadows gets in her way. There was nothing soft about him. Not his voice, not his stare, and definitely not the way he moved, like every step had already been plotted ten moves ahead. Though they start off on the wrong foot, the walls between them soon begin to crack and a reluctant alliance is initiated. With glares turning into secret glances and an irresistible attraction binding them, something more is bound to arise. ◕ ◕ ◕ He smirked, the kind that curled with trouble, and slowly leaned in, his eyes locked on mine, unblinking. My breath hitched as I braced myself against the desk behind me, my fingers curling around the edge. His gaze flicked to my lips, a fleeting loaded glance, before he abruptly turned away stepping back just far enough to make me ache for air. "If you keep this up," he murmured, voice low and edged with heat, "I might just kiss that smart mouth of yours." I pushed off the desk, circling around him, my tone firm but my knees anything but steady. "I'm being serious here." "So am I." There was something darker in his eyes now, something unreadable and electric. My skin tingled with warning. Before I could figure out what had shifted, he moved. ~weekly updates~
