Wounded King is connected to the world of Shattered Silk, but it is a complete story on its own and can be read without reading the first book. He made a promise he couldn't break. She lost everything in a single night. Abhishek Rana never wanted a wife — only a name to offer someone with no one left. When he finds Naina, orphaned and alone, marrying her feels like fulfilling a duty… nothing more. A slow-burn, age-gap romance between two broken souls forced into an unwanted marriage — and a love neither of them saw coming. “Not a single chapter wasted—every page pulls you deeper into a slow-burn that won’t let you go.”
