Finding You In The Dark

Book #1 in The Runaway Series.

Sandhya is a free-spirited girl. Her perfectly planned vacation was ruined when she ends up stranded alone in the vast Arabian Deserts, not knowing how to get back. When a nomad offers to help, the adventure continues raw and memorable, surprisingly better than what she had planned. But... is that a help she wished to have taken?

Aktar is a pretended nomad, behind that veil he buried his own dark secrets - one that he wanted to run away from and forget forever. When it chases him dauntingly, he flees. And it has been a cat and mouse game ever since.

He decided to help the chirpy Indian girl just out of guilt, but through her he sees the other side of life and he instinctively reaches for it... yearns for it. When it slips right through his fingers would he be willing to let it go? Or tuck it tightly under him?

This is a slow-burn one-sided love story; traversing through trust, friendship... and lies... and betrayals....and miserably stumbling upon darkness.

Because, sometimes, finding someone means...becoming someone they may never forgive.

Because loving her was never the danger.

Losing her was.

Happy reading 🤗
