Fool Me Twice

Since school, Sana has been the popular girl with excellent grades, beloved by both teachers and parents, living an enviable life. Sana and Ashish have been dating since the eleventh grade, sharing the kind of teenage romance that makes it to the bestsellers list, sells out theatres and causes their loveless friends to gag. Nothing, not even long-distance, can tear the two apart.

Except, maybe, a handsome, overachieving, book-reading senior from Sana’ s college?

Pranav is the typical ‘ cool guy’ sought after by the entire college. He also happens to be Sana’ s new friend, Aanchal’ s, brother. But he’ s nothing more than a friend! Sana already has the best boyfriend in the world!

Correction: had, before a drunk driver on New Year’ s Eve obliterated her happiness.

Set in New Delhi, Fool Me Twice is an unconventional story that will stump readers expecting a good, old romance trope. We meet and fall in love with a young couple planning their futures together when life rudely hijacks the steering wheel. Exploring the ways a twenty-year-old navigates grief and life after a loss that shatters most fifty-year-olds, Fool Me Twice looks at the complexity of falling in love ''again'' at an age where most are falling for the first time, and what it feels like to move on from mourning one great love to make room for another.
