THE COLDEST WEDDING NIGHT

What happens when two strong-headed.who can't even stand each other's existence—are suddenly bound by the most sacred yet coldest bond of all… marriage? Welcome to the world of Tara Bansal, a smart, spirited, and emotionally rich girl with a sarcastic tongue and a heart that often hides behind her sass. And meet Vikram Suryavanshi, the cold, controlled, and commanding CEO who doesn’t just walk into a room—he owns it. Their wedding night wasn’t a dream—it was a disaster. No candlelight, no love, just icy silence, shared glances of irritation, and a mental checklist of regrets. They didn’t choose each other. Destiny—or rather, family drama, power games, and past secrets—chose for them. But what starts as a deal, slowly begins to crack open. --- Inside the Suryavanshi mansion, drama simmers behind every closed door. Tara, the new bride, tries to adjust between fake smiles and real heartbreaks. She isn’t here to impress anyone—not Vikram, not his Dadi, and definitely not the high-class whispers of society. Yet somehow, her natural warmth begins to thaw frozen hearts, even the one Vikram claims he doesn’t have. Vikram, despite being sharp and stone-hearted, finds his carefully curated world disturbed by Tara’s unexpected presence. Her words trigger him. Her silence haunts him. And her vulnerability—though she hides it fiercely—touches him in places he didn’t know existed anymore. Their chemistry is chaotic. They fight. They taunt. They draw pillow walls in bed. And yet… they wake up hugging each other without even knowing how it happened. --- But this isn’t just about a cold marriage turning warm. It’s about: Unspoken traumas Unintentional care Growing attachment masked as hatred The fear of love and the fear of losing it When Tara laughs with kids, Vikram watches. When Tara gets close to Prithvi—Vikram’s rival—Vikram burns with jealousy he can’t explain. And when almost-kisses turn into real confusions… the heartbeats grow louder. But just when things begin to shift—when stolen glances almost become confessions—life throws a twist. Prithvi’s growing closeness. Vikram’s bottled-up pain. And Tara’s unknown storm that still hasn’t hit the story yet… The journey from hate to hesitation, from awkward eye contact to sleepless tangled nights—is slow, spicy, and stunningly emotional. --- This isn’t a love story. It’s a battle of egos that falls into something dangerously close to love. It’s The Coldest Wedding Night— Where hearts collide. Secrets hide. And love… doesn’t knock. It breaks the damn door.

Whispers of the tide

In the quiet coastal town of Dawnridge, grief and healing drift like the tides. Lena Hart, a once-successful painter from the city, arrives in Dawnridge carrying the weight of unbearable loss—the tragic death of her fiancé, Jeremy. Hoping to disappear into the sleepy rhythm of the town, she finds herself creatively and emotionally paralyzed. Her brushes sit untouched, her heart locked away. Enter Eli Turner, a guarded local carpenter haunted by his own past. Once deeply in love and betrayed, he has kept his distance from anything resembling emotional entanglement. He’s rebuilding more than just boats—he’s rebuilding his life, piece by piece, in solitude. When fate—or perhaps something gentler—throws Lena and Eli together, sparks don’t immediately fly. Their connection is slow-burning, filled with misunderstandings, vulnerability, and moments of unexpected tenderness. As Lena begins to sketch again, and Eli offers her quiet strength, both start to unravel their pasts. But just as their walls begin to crumble, ghosts from both of their lives return—forcing them to confront the pain they thought they had buried. A confrontation with Eli’s ex, and a visit from Jeremy’s mother, stir up old wounds. An argument drives Lena to the brink of leaving Dawnridge altogether, but a moment of stillness at sunrise brings clarity: healing doesn’t mean forgetting. And love, when it’s real, is not a replacement—but a rebirth. In the final chapter, Lena paints her first sunrise in months. Eli finishes his boat. They reconcile with honesty and quiet affection, finally allowing themselves peace—and love. The boat, named The Dawn, becomes a symbol of everything they’ve rebuilt together. In a town where the sun always rises over the sea, The Dawn is a moving story of loss, love, and the healing that only comes when we face the truth—and choose to live again.
