About the Book

Krish is the latest ‘it’ thing. The Indian-export, award-winning lesbian author, who is being actively pursued by Bollywood’s darling Karan Raichand for movie rights to her Booker nominated book.

But her past catches up to her on the 14-hour flight back to India when she’s seated next to Mahi, the woman who broke her heart ten years ago. Mahi, now Mahek Singh, is India’s #1 actress and Karan’s biggest star.

As old memories and anger resurface, Mahi and Krish have to contend with Bollywood glamour, interfering relatives, crazy fans, and zealous best friends, all of which complicates their already star-crossed relationship.

Traversing the past, present and a hopeful future, can Krish move beyond her heartbreak? Will Mahi have to choose between her career and her love all over again?

Or will a second chance finally lead to happiness?

Talking about the book, Minita Sanghvi says “Growing up, I wished there had been more stories that featured gay couples. Coming out is so important. And I wanted to share a sweet, steamy romance that was built around a desi coming out story. I just want people reading this book to believe that everyone can have their own happy ending.”

Swati Daftuar, Executive Editor at HarperCollins India, said “Minita’s book is a breath of fresh air. There’s everything in it that makes for a delicious romance – wonderful, well-rounded protagonists that you can’t help rooting for, vibrant supporting characters that keep things interesting, and a love that feels incredibly real. It’s such a pleasure to publish her”
