There's always a price for defying destiny. 
Born with a power to make men irresistibly in love with her, Laleen dreams of experiencing a love unbound by her powers. But a man like that could never exist in her life due to the curse placed on her when she was just a baby.
When her soul is exchanged with another's after an encounter with the witch who cursed her as a baby, Laleen is giving an opportunity to start her life anew and maybe, get the love story she has always wanted. Except... how is her curse still with her despite now becoming another person in another world? 
As Stephanie, Laleen meets Shane, a mysterious man who for some reason isn't affected by her powers. Not thinking that a man such as himself could exist in this world, Laleen is deeply drawn to him.
Due to unforseen circumstances, they end up together as husband and wife. 
But Shane isn't just a mysterious man who refuses to love her. He bears his own secrets and a great trauma that Laleen is yet to uncover and may be the key to unlocking his unyielding heart.
As Laleen's quest for love is greatly challenged by a witch's thirst for revenge, secrets are unveiled and stories of the past are brought to question. 
Can Laleen find the true love she so seeks? Will Shane's heart ever be opened to her? Can a love thriving without destiny's divine permission ever see the light?
Or will it be burnt to ashes, buried in the cold dark hands of fate's cruelty.

In-between Our Destinies

The ride to her home was mostly quiet.

Laleen's eyes flickered in Shane's direction from time to time and the more she stared at his gorgeous side profile, the more nervous she got.

When the car finally came to a halt, her heart almost stopped for a second.

Watching Shane undo his seatbelt, her hands instinctively grabbed his elbow.

His dark eyes sparked with annoyance as he glanced at her.

Laleen's lashes fluttered desperately as she peered into his eyes.

"Please act nicely," she muttered in plea and she watched his blank face light up into a small sadistic smile.

"Sure," his voice sounded eager and that was not the Shane she knew.

Was this a bad idea after all? Laleen swallowed hard as she released his hand and got down from the car.

Shane's eyes surveyed his surroundings with an expressionless gaze. The last time he had been around here, the troublemaker was being chased by some jobless humans.
