A Story of Love, Loss, and the Courage to Rebuild
Some ruins are made of stone.
Others are made of memories.
Maya Sen once believed her future was written in music. But after a devastating accident shatters her hands and ends her career as a pianist, she turns to architecture restoration, learning to rebuild what time and neglect have broken.
Years later, while restoring the crumbling Estate Anandi beside the Ganges, Maya meets Julian Vance-a quiet, mysterious archival photographer whose photographs seem to capture more than buildings. He understands the language of damaged walls, forgotten rooms, and things that refuse to be forgotten.
Their connection begins as a quiet rivalry.
Then it becomes friendship.
And slowly, dangerously, it becomes love.
But Julian is carrying a secret.
A secret connected to the night that changed Maya's life forever.
As old blueprints resurface, suspicious structural failures threaten Estate Anandi, and a powerful developer begins forcing his way into the restoration project, Maya realizes that the past has followed her into the present.
Someone has been hiding the truth.
Someone has been watching.
And the closer Maya gets to Julian, the more she begins to wonder whether the man she trusts most is connected to the tragedy she has spent years trying to survive.
Set against the monsoon skies, ancient ghats, and timeless waters of the Ganges, The Geometry of Regret is a slow-burn romance about guilt, trust, betrayal, and the courage to rebuild a life after everything familiar has collapsed.
Because some things cannot be restored to what they were.
They can only be rebuilt into something stronger.
For readers who love emotional romance, atmospheric mystery, damaged-but-devoted characters, hidden secrets, architectural settings, and stories of redemption.
