Dear Readers ❤

Thank you from the bottom of my heart for choosing to read this book. Your time and trust mean everything to me, and I hope this story touches you in unexpected ways.

This novel is a work of fiction, born entirely from my imagination and written straight from the heart. Every emotion, every twist, every character — they all come from the world I’ve built inside my mind and soul.

This is my first novel — my dream, my passion, and my voice through characters I created with deep love, pain, and emotion.

🙏 Please Don’t Judge the Characters

My characters are flawed, emotional, and human.
They make mistakes.
They fall.
They rise again.

Shrushti RaiSinghani is not just a “strong female lead.” She’s a survivor — bruised by betrayal, yet still standing.
Devansh Singh Ranawat is not a “perfect hero.” He’s intense, guarded, possessive — but his loyalty and love run deep.

Please don’t judge them by one chapter, one scene, or one moment.
Their journey is messy, layered, and emotional — just like life.
If you can’t connect with them, that’s okay. However, please refrain from leaving hateful or harsh comments.
If this book is not for you, feel free to walk away. Kindly. Silently.

❌ This is NOT a "Perfect" Love Story

This book is not a fairytale.
It’s not meant to be perfect — because real love isn’t perfect either.

This story is about scars.
About silence.
About second chances.
It’s about love that doesn’t always sound sweet, but feels real in the heart.

There might be scenes that frustrate you. Characters who confuse you.
But that’s what makes this story honest — because love, trauma, and healing are never black and white.

🌍 A Note from Me:

English is not my first language.
You may find grammar errors, spelling mistakes, or awkward phrasing — and that’s okay.
Please don’t focus on those. Just focus on the emotion.

This story was never meant to be grammatically perfect.
It was meant to be felt.

💬 Final Words

I wrote this story not to impress — but to express.
It is my world. My truth. My voice. My emotion.

It’s for the girl who was once full of life… and then broken.
It’s for the boy who kept loving… even in silence.
It’s for anyone who still believes in healing… in messy, real, slow-burning love.

So if you’re ready for a journey where:

1. The king still waits for his queen

2. The queen carries storms in her silence

3. And love speaks louder in the quiet…

Then welcome to my story.
Welcome to Mine: In the Silence.

Let Devansh and Shrushti take you on their path — of fire, of scars, of healing, and of unshakable love.

Thank you for reading — and thank you for feeling it with me.

With all my heart,
— Smileyyy
