Synopsis
Manisha is a woman of precision — a forensic investigator and auditor who travels the world exposing flaws others would rather keep hidden. Outwardly strong, inwardly cautious, she carries the scars of a broken marriage and pours her love into raising her protective young son, Arav. Her life is lived in airports, boardrooms, and silent hotel rooms, where work fills the spaces her heart no longer dares to. Mark Kumar Roy is a man shaped by contrasts: an Anglo-Indian, born of two cultures, who values openness and affection yet reveres tradition and family. A widower, he carries the tender memory of a wife he adored, the heartbreak of miscarriages endured, and the miracle of a daughter, Hillary — his light, his anchor. He raises her with quiet devotion, though the house is often haunted by loneliness once she falls asleep. Their first meeting is in Detroit, where Manisha delivers a red audit report that should have set them apart. Instead, it leaves an impression neither can shake. She is struck by his unusual calm and teasing humour in the face of criticism; he is intrigued by her unflinching honesty and the strength she hides behind her composed exterior. From that moment, their lives begin to interlace. Hillary, Manisha’s god-daughter, becomes the bridge — her innocent affection drawing Mark and Manisha closer. Yet the path to love is not easy. Arav, fiercely protective of his mother, resists the change. Cultural differences rise to the surface as well — Mark’s blended heritage and Western openness meet Manisha’s guarded reserve and Indian values. Friends and guides — practical Maya, spiritual Anaya, and wise Dr. Nehal — lend their voices, helping Manisha to slowly accept love without guilt, and Arav to soften his defences. Together, Mark and Manisha navigate a journey that is both tender and turbulent — of trust regained, grief honoured, family redefined, and traditions woven into new beginnings. Their love story unfolds not in grand gestures, but in quiet reckonings: shared laughter over burnt toast, whispered phone calls across continents, a child’s hand clasping two adults together. Destiny’s Ledger is not merely a romance; it is a meditation on loss, resilience, and the balancing acts of the heart. It reminds us that the universe keeps its own books — every scar an entry, every loss a lesson, every meeting a divine line written long before we know it. And when the time is right, two souls who have carried too much finally find each other, not by chance, but by design.

Chapter 1 - Preface

Love does not arrive like a thunderclap, though sometimes it can strike with such force that it feels as though the heavens themselves have torn open. At other times, it creeps in quietly, as soft as the rustle of a page turned in an old ledger.

This book is not only a story of two people but of two souls — long tested, long travelled, and finally drawn back into one another's orbit. It is about reckonings, not of profit and loss, but of joy and sorrow, courage and sacrifice, hope and despair.

Here, numbers give way to emotions, red marks turn into tender signs, and balance sheets are rewritten in the ink of affection. For in the end, what matters is not what the world records, but what the heart remembers.

This is our story — of meetings and partings, of lessons and blessings, of signs from the universe that whispered: love was always waiting.
