Yours, Raven

Title: Yours, Raven

Author: Hermyne Khaling

Raven was only thirteen and silly when she wrote her first love letter, when she faced her first rejection.

Nicholas, her brother's best friend, was 20 then. He told her she was too young for him, that she'd find a better guy for herself when she's older . . . Someone around her age. Raven, of course, thought that was complete bullshit but what could she really do? Rejection was rejection.

Eventually, Nicholas joined the Army and Raven had to move on. Raven did. Raven changed.

Years after, during a summer holiday, when Nicholas sees her again as a 19-year-old college girl - all grown up - he couldn't help but see her in a different light. A real woman. But he'd have to fight against his feelings because of the fact that having held her hands like an older brother should and, moreover, with their tribe's tradition that the two clans should never wed, she was basically forbidden for him.

But theirs was an unbreakable bond. Theirs was beyond any name. It would be cruel of fate if they ever were to be separated.

So what now? What really was their destiny?

This was the first story on Wattpad that I've read that's set in India. I enjoyed the change of locations throughout, along with the multiple POVs. As the story developed, Raven and Nick started exploring their feelings and went through a lot together. I enjoyed reading about their trials and triumphs. With a heavy heart, I had to let go of Nick and Raven when their story came to an end, but it was definitely a good one.
