This is my invitation for you to read my first novel—ever—for free!
I’ve written 6 books by now, and I’ve never done something like this before. I have a feeling I might mess this up in some way—but oh well. What’s life without a few mistakes?
Maybe it’s because it’s finally that time—the one where I put all my fears, doubts, and insecurities aside and embrace my childhood dream of writing novels. Cute romance stories that unravel the lives of young people like myself—who look like me, might sound like me, and come from the same background as me, with names that might end in Preet, Jeet, or Meet.
And yet, their stories are the most real, relatable, and tender to the heart.
Or maybe it’s because—this time—I’m scared. Terrified. That I might not be good enough. That the stories I want to tell might not be as witty, cute, wholesome and healing as they are in my head.
That’s why, I need your help (no pressure, of course 👀)
And—honestly? This free book is nothing compared to everything you’ve done for me over the past eight years. Because of you, I’ve had the incredible fortune of publishing five books before signing with my dream publishing company—Penguin Random House. So what if we didn’t hit a bestseller chart? The fact that I’ve made it this far, with your unwavering love and support, is a reward in itself.
So, as a thank you—I’d love to send you my latest novel completely free of charge, even before my publisher gets to read it. It’s also a lovely way for you to be part of the story’s evolution, and together, we can create something truly special.
And finally, a very—very—short synopsis of this book (promise I’ll send you a longer one soon):
She’s the anxious redhead determined to stay under the radar. He’s the effortlessly flirty distraction she didn’t see coming. All she wants is his help, so she proposes a friendship pact—a sweet offer he can’t resist. Between café meet-cutes and library book avalanches, meddlesome aunties insisting she “live a little,” and him whisking her off on spontaneous adventures she never imagined, what could possibly go wrong? Other than, you know, everything…
