"He is the ache that surfaces in quiet moments, a flare of longing in the hush of morning light. The memory that slips back in, unbidden, refusing to stay where I placed it."
Nabanita Roy has rebuilt her life—her career flourishing, her heart steady—until Zubeen Asher walks back into it. She thought she’d buried him deep beneath layers of memory—gone, sealed, forgotten.
But Zubeen is a brooding intense, moody, cloaked in secrets as dark as shadows—a crypto billionaire haunted by past choices—unreachable, yet magnetic.
She believed he was gone. Yet he returns in the secrets that whisper beneath the polished surface. He can’t—and won’t—let go.
And she? Reading her old diary entries, she’s drawn back into the past that never truly vanished… and now, with his return, the world she had carefully built over the years is beginning to fracture under his inescapable presence.
