Healing Hearts Series - Book 1 Hallways and Heartbeats is an intense, heartwarming and lively romance that follows the rousing adventures of Kashvi Singh and Aadyant Rathore-two people who were never supposed to cross paths, let alone fall for each other. Kashvi keeps her world small. After everything she's been through, staying invisible feels safer than letting anyone close. She's the quiet fashion design student just trying to pour her pain into her sketches and survive college. Aadyant Rathore is impossible to ignore. The business major with a reputation-confident, intense, and a little dangerous. He doesn't do relationships or feelings. But when circumstances throw them together, he sees past Kashvi's walls-and for reasons he can't explain, he wants in. What starts as curiosity becomes something fiercer. Possessive. All-consuming. Between stolen glances across campus and moments that blur every line, they find themselves caught in something neither planned for. Kashvi's not sure she's ready for someone who makes her feel alive again. And Aadyant's discovering that the one person he swore he'd never care about is the only one he can't let go. But healing isn't linear and loving someone with scars means facing the darkness together. Sweet, funny, and just a little bit wild, Hallways and Heartbeats is about finding love in unexpected places and learning that sometimes the person who seems all wrong is exactly who you need.
