Avni Kapoor had loved Virat Malhotra for as long as she could remember.The problem?He never noticed.To Virat, Avni had always been nothing more than Vikram Kapoor's quiet, little daughter-the shy younger sister who existed somewhere in the background while he grew up beside her brilliant older sister, Aditi.Aditi was everything Avni wasn't.Confident. Ambitious. Fearless.And, according to everyone, Virat's future wife.Their marriage was practically inevitable.Until the day before the wedding.Aditi disappears.With hundreds of guests waiting, two powerful families on the verge of a business disaster, and a wedding that cannot simply disappear without consequences, an impossible decision is placed before them.And somehow, Avni finds herself standing where her sister was supposed to stand.Beside the man she has loved for years.Virat doesn't want this marriage.Avni doesn't want to be anyone's second choice.But sometimes life doesn't ask what you want.It simply changes the story.So they make a deal.A marriage without expectations.No love.No promises.And when Aditi returns, they will walk away from each other.Simple.Except nothing about their marriage stays simple.The girl who never asks him to love her.And perhaps the cruelest twist of all-by the time Virat finally realizes what Avni means to him, Avni may no longer want him.Because she spent half her life waiting for him to look her way.She isn't going to spend the rest of it waiting.And when the woman who was supposed to be his wife finally wakes up and returns...their marriage may end.But their love story?That might only just be beginning.Sometimes the wrong bride is exactly the person you were meant to find.
