Anushka The day my sister and her husband died, I made a promise that I would raise their little daughter as my own. But getting sole custody was impossible when her grandparents wanted her under their roof. That left me with only one choice—to marry Vivaan, my late sister’s brother-in-law. The very man I find infuriating, arrogant, and impossible to tolerate. I tell myself the fake marriage is something I can endure, a small price to pay to be with my niece. But the more I’m around Vivaan, the more I see the man behind his cold arrogance, and the harder it becomes to hold on to my hate. And the most unexpected twist of all—my sacrifice is quietly turning into love. Vivaan I noticed Anushka the first time I met her. Beautiful. Intelligent. Completely impossible to ignore. But she was my sister-in-law’s sister, which made her off-limits—until tragedy struck. When my parents insisted on keeping their granddaughter with them, I knew my niece needed her aunt, Anushka, close, so I did what made sense and married her, even knowing she despised me and could barely tolerate me. On paper, it was practical—a simple arrangement to keep my niece surrounded by the people who loved her. At least, that’s what I told myself. But somewhere, while playing house, I lost what I swore I’d never risk—my heart. Now, Anushka isn’t just the woman I married for convenience—she’s the woman I can’t lose. When duty binds them together, can love dare to break every rule?
