The Elements of Rapture series by Swati M.H. consists of four contemporary romance novels published between 2022 and 2024. Each book features a different couple and romance trope while sharing an interconnected cast of characters. Adrift (2022) follows Rani Shah, who becomes a live-in nanny for a widower and falls for the grumpy single dad in a forbidden, age-gap romance. Ascend (2023) tells a marriage-of-convenience story involving a single mom and a friend.
Ablaze (2023) pairs a firefighter named Dean Meyer with his best friend’s sister in a friends-to-lovers story that heats up when the two get stranded in a snowstorm and share a motel room. Abyss (2024) is an enemies-to-lovers workplace romance where Kavi Jain takes a summer job at the company run by her best friend’s father, Hudson Case, a CEO who does not make things easy for her. The series blends humor with emotional stakes, and each book includes steamy scenes alongside family-centered storylines.
