She was the bride no one wanted. He was the brother forced to take her.
When Ishaani Awasthi's groom confesses to getting another woman pregnant—in the middle of their wedding ceremony—her world shatters. Humiliated in front of Mumbai's elite, abandoned at the altar, she becomes the scandal of the season.
Until the Raghuvanshi family offers a solution: their eldest son will marry her instead.
Reyaansh Raghuvanshi—known as "The Devil" in Mumbai's underworld—never wanted a wife. Especially not his brother's discarded bride. Forced into marriage by duty, he makes his resentment crystal clear: this is business, nothing more.
For a year, Ishaani survives as the invisible Mrs. Raghuvanshi. The pitying looks. The whispered insults. The husband who can barely look at her. Trapped in a gilded cage, blamed for sins that aren't hers, she's falling for a man too damaged to love her back.
Their first wedding anniversary changes everything.
One explosive night. One desperate kiss. One confession that ignites a passion neither can control.
But Reyaansh's world doesn't allow weakness. And an enemy has noticed The Devil's new vulnerability: his unwanted wife. When Ishaani is taken, Reyaansh will burn Mumbai to the ground to get her back—finally realizing that the woman he married out of duty has become the only thing that matters.
In a world where love and violence dance together, where loyalty is currency and betrayal means death, two broken souls must decide: can love survive when it's built on ashes? Or will their passion consume them both?
A scorching tale of forced proximity, enemies to lovers, and second-chance romance set against Mumbai's glittering underworld. For readers who crave dark, possessive heroes and the strong women who bring them to their knees.
