Hello my dear lilies💗💫...

How are you all doing guyzz...?

So, with a lot of happiness and excitement, I am announcing THE COMEBACK of your's and mine favourite - #VEERANI

On my readers high demand, here we are back with veer and vani's love...

I'm really sorry, to keep you all waiting for TBT's comeback...

•••••••••••

And before you begin this journey...

Thank you. Truly, sincerely, endlessly - thank you for choosing *Torn But Together.*

In a world overflowing with stories, words, and countless fictional universes, the fact that you decided to stop here, even for a moment, means more to me than I can ever explain. Every reader who clicks on this book, adds it to their library, reads a chapter, leaves a vote, remembers a dialogue, or simply feels something while reading... becomes a part of this story's existence.

And for that, I will always remain grateful.

*Torn But Together* is not merely a romance novel.

It is an emotional journey stitched together with heartbreak, longing, silence, sacrifice, healing, grief, hope, and a love that refused to die even after being destroyed.

This story lives in the spaces between words.

In the ache of separation.

In unsent feelings.

In years of silence that still carried love beneath them.

In eyes that smiled softly while hiding unbearable pain.

In people who broke each other, only because the world gave them no other choice.

At its core, *TBT* is a **soft yet dark romance.**

It does not rely on extreme explicitness to portray intimacy. The intimacy in this story exists through emotional depth - through trembling touches, silent protection, hidden sacrifices, rain-soaked reunions, lingering stares, shattered trust, prayers whispered in temples, sleepless nights, and hearts that continued loving even while pretending otherwise.

Some stories scream their love loudly.

This one bleeds it quietly.

The world of Veer Juneja and Vani Arora is layered with secrets, emotions, trauma, loyalty, family bonds, second chances, and the painful reality that sometimes love alone is not enough to keep two people together... until fate decides otherwise.

There are truths hidden beneath this story.

Truths that are meant to unfold slowly.

Some wounds are visible. Some are carried in silence.

Some people survive heartbreak. Some become it.

And somewhere in between all of that exists *Torn But Together.*

This book contains fictional characters, fictional events, fictional companies, and fictional situations created solely from the author's imagination, that's me. Similarities to real individuals or situations are purely coincidental unless otherwise stated.

Now, coming to something extremely important-

This book, including but not limited to its:

* title,

* storyline,

* characters,

* plots,

* dialogues,

* original scenes,

* concepts,

* aesthetics,

* emotional arcs,

* edits,

* written content,

* and all creative elements

belongs solely to me, as the author of *Torn But Together.*

Any form of plagiarism, theft, adaptation, reposting, unauthorized translations, rewriting, copying scenes, stealing dialogues, reproducing character arcs, or claiming any part of this work as your own is strictly prohibited.

This story was not created overnight.

It was written through sleepless nights, emotional attachment, overthinking, breakdowns, imagination, comfort, and pieces of my own heart. Every chapter carries effort behind it. Every character carries emotions attached to them.

Therefore, plagiarism will never be tolerated under any circumstances.

Strict action may be taken against anyone found copying or stealing content from this book.

Now, something from my heart as an author-

Please remember that behind this story is a real person.

A person who spent hours building this world carefully.

A person who loved these characters long before you met them.

A person who poured emotions into scenes that may simply look like "fiction" to others.

So while respectful opinions are understandable, hateful criticism, unnecessary negativity, mocking, insulting comments, abusive language, degrading remarks about the story, the characters, the plot, or my writing style will not be welcomed here.

Not every story is meant for every reader - and that is perfectly okay.

If this story is not something you enjoy, you are absolutely free to leave peacefully and respectfully. Your choice as a reader will always be respected.

But intentional disrespect will not be entertained.

I created this story with love, sincerity, and emotional honesty. The least I ask in return is basic respect toward the effort behind it.

And now... something very personal.

*Torn But Together* once disappeared.

Due to my own mistake, this story was deleted - and losing it felt devastating. It felt like losing memories I had lived with for so long. There were moments when I genuinely thought this book would never return again.

But then came the readers.

The readers who remembered Veer and Vani.

The readers who asked about this story even after it was gone.

The readers who loved these characters deeply enough to wait.

The readers who never let *TBT* fade completely.

And because of those people... this story breathed again.

So if you are one of those readers who stayed, supported, waited patiently, defended this story, shared love, cried with these characters, or simply believed this book deserved another chance-

Thank you soo much.

You will never understand how much your love means to me.

This story exists again because of you.

And to the readers beginning this journey for the very first time...

Welcome to a world where:

* love survives separation,

* pain hides behind smiles,

* rain remembers old promises,

* temples witness silent prayers,

* motherhood heals broken hearts,

* and two souls find each other again after losing everything.

This story will hurt you softly.

It will heal you slowly.

And perhaps, somewhere between Veer's silence and Vani's strength, you may find emotions you never expected to feel.

So read gently.

Because these characters are fragile to me.

Lastly, once again-

Thank you for choosing *Torn But Together.*

Thank you for giving this story your time, your emotions, your patience, and your trust.

I hope this book leaves a mark on your heart.

I hope Veer and Vani stay with you long after the story ends.

I hope our little one's laughter makes you smile.

And I hope that somewhere within this journey of heartbreak and healing, you discover that even torn things can still find their way back together.

And before I end this note...

There is something I want to say not as an author, but simply as a person who is emotionally attached to this story.

I'm scared.

Scared that maybe after all this time, *Torn But Together* may not feel the same to the readers who once loved it deeply.

I keep wondering...

Will you still love Veer and Vani the same way you once did?

Will their story still touch your heart?

Will the emotions still feel alive after returning once again?

Or will it feel repetitive... like something you have already outgrown?

These thoughts sit in my mind more often than I admit.

Because restarting a story that once disappeared is not easy. Especially when that story was loved before. There is always this silent fear inside an author's heart - the fear that maybe the magic won't return the same way.

Sometimes I wonder if readers will become bored reading this journey all over again.

Sometimes I wonder if the emotional scenes will still hit the same.

Sometimes I wonder if the characters people once adored will still be enough.

And honestly... I don't know the answer.

But I do know one thing:

I came back to this story with even more love than before.

This version of *TBT* carries a more mature heart, deeper emotions, stronger writing, and little changes that I genuinely believe will make the story even more beautiful than it already was.

Which brings me to another thing I want to ask from you all-

Would you mind if I change the storyline a little?

Not completely. Never completely.

The soul of *Torn But Together* will always remain the same. Veer will still love silently. Vani will still carry strength inside softness. Their pain, separation, reunion, emotions, and love will always belong to them.

I want to grow as a writer while still protecting the essence of the story you once loved.

And honestly... that scares me too.

What if you prefer the old version more?

What if the new emotions don't connect the same way?

What if the changes disappoint you instead of making the story better?

What if restarting this book changes people's memories attached to it?

These are the questions I carry quietly while rewriting every chapter.

Because readers may see a "book update," but authors often see pieces of their heart being rewritten again and again.

So if you stay through this new journey of *TBT*... thank you.

Thank you for trusting me enough to tell this story once more.

Thank you for allowing these characters to breathe again.

And thank you for understanding that sometimes stories grow alongside the people writing them.

No matter how much changes, one thing never will-

The emotions behind this story are real to me.

And I hope, with all my heart, they become real to you too.

- Your Author
