ABOUT THIS BOOK

I left Ranikhet, seeking a new beginning in Mumbai, bringing only dreams and a shadow from my past.
Shiv.
He’s the only one I’ve loved and ever will.
I can’t shake him off… I search for him in all the men I meet. What is life without Shiv?
My heart and mind are in a constant battle, leading me to question everything and everyone.
Until Ram.
Shiv is Ram and Ram is Shiv.
But is he?
Is this real? Or an illusion?
I lost the capability to differentiate long ago.
Ram takes me under his wings and makes me soar high…until I fall. Hard.
Into a deep, dark abyss.
Wasn’t he supposed to be my salvation?
I’m a girl torn between rationality and obsession, heart and mind.
I’m Maya, and this is my story.
