Prajakta’s debut novel is a testament to this creative wave, and we can’t wait to bring readers even more thrilling discoveries and exciting literary experiences this year!”
In discussing her debut, Prajakta reflected, “Writing this book was an incredible journey—like living with these characters, who feel as real to me as the people in my life. I love bookstores, which is why I've set one part of the story in a bookstore. As a fan, every time I see a book set in a bookstore which is also a cafe like this Crossword store, I instantly feel like 'This is great!' For me, storytelling is about relationships and emotions, and I hope readers can find a little piece of themselves in each character, just as I did while creating them.”
Too Good To Be True is a heartwarming romantic comedy that follows Avani, a young woman whose life is turned upside down when she meets Aman, a man who seems to have stepped out of her favourite romance novels. With Prajakta’s trademark charm and wit, the novel explores themes of love, friendship, and self-discovery in a relatable and touching way.
