When a lowly Devgadh girl — Tara Thakker meets a stranger on the banks of a river in Baroda, her life takes an unexpected turn. The stranger, seemingly older, wiser, and certainly too arrogant for her taste intrigues and annoys her in equal measure. Unaware of his identity, Tara finds herself drawn into a day of kayaking, bantering, birdwatching, and a deep, unexpected spark of connection that takes her whole being by storm.
It’s only when the day ends that she stumbles upon the truth — he is Siddharth Sinh Solanki. The divorced, father-of-a-teenager King of Nawanagar. Scandalised, Tara runs as fast as she can. As far as she can. But their paths cross again. And again. And they continue to cross — in secret meetings and hidden trysts, from their own kingdoms to far-flung Antarctic expeditions, between passionate nights and adventurous days. And slowly, their hearts become tethered by the invisible strings of fate.
But back in the confines of their reality, love alone is not enough. Because when Siddharth asks her parents for her hand in marriage, they demand more than just love. They demand the impossible. And even as Siddharth refuses, his son, in a reckless moment, makes a dangerous oath — an oath that would cast a long shadow over all their futures.
As Tara’s fate becomes bound by this teenager’s oath, and her new role in a resentful kingdom becomes tenuous, tragedy strikes again. And all eyes turn to her. Will she stand for justice, for what’s good and right? Or will the weight of ambition, fear, and insecurity destroy a pure love, budding bonds and a dynasty that was on its way up?
A DUAL POV, FORBIDDEN, ANGSTY, AGE GAP ROYAL ROMANCE by the author of 'THE QUEEN'S EYES' and 'MADE IN MUMBAI.'
