Ethan, the brilliant co-founder of a tech empire, has one unspoken rule: never hire Indians. Haunted by wounds from a past he refuses to revisit, his guarded world begins to crack when a new developer joins the team in his absence.

Nidhi, sharp, kind, and stubbornly hopeful, isn’t just another employee. She unknowingly charms her way into the heart of Ethan’s grandmother, dragging herself straight into his personal space and under his skin.

What begins as irritation turns into confusion. And confusion, into something far more dangerous.
But Ethan’s past isn’t done with him yet.

Can he let go of the bitterness he’s carried for so long?
Or will he push away the one woman who might finally teach him the difference between resentment and love?

A tale filled with emotion, humor, and unexpected warmth, Firewalls and Feelings is a slow-burn romance about healing, prejudice, and the messy beauty of falling for the last person you expected.
