This is the sequel to 'BACK TO BACK'. If you've not read 'BACK TO BACK' this story won't seem as convincing and perhaps won't make any sense at all! ××× After a month's long wait and crazily searching for Meera, Vedant FINALLY meets her in person. He's nervous and excited; all set to prove to her just how much he cares. But right when he thinks Meera's taught him enough, he realizes there's so much more he's yet to learn. The biggest lesson of all time? Falling in love with someone's diary entries is very different from falling in love with the person who wrote them.

Since his departure from the racing arena, Karan Bahl has been having a hard time connecting with the world that apparently doesn't revolve around him. His coworkers think he has anger issues, his friends think he's too hung up on his past, and every woman he goes out with thinks he's too full of himself. His sob story is definitely a thread he doesn't wish to tug on, but when a baggage from the past keeps circling his life, it's the only one he can hang onto. Thing is, when you've only known materialistic pleasures all your life, it's difficult to satisfy a craving that yearns for a heart instead. So yes, judge him by his cover, because he kinda worked hard to build it. ⠀⠀▪︎▪︎▪︎ ▪︎STAND ALONE/BOOK IV IN THE DIL SERIES copyright © shubhodiya 2022

It may feel good to be pretty, but the problem with being beautiful is that there are thousands of people who look like you. Ugliness, however, is unique. ------------------- One girl, a walking-talking example of contradictions -- ambitious but naive, kind but blunt, social but awkward -- is living in perhaps the most competitive society in this world. She has a dream, a fairly conventional and acceptable dream, one which every parent would approve of. Unfortunately, millions of others share this dream, and in order to fulfill hers, she has to eliminate her competition, literally. Throw in a fair share of drama. Friends and family, crushes and exes, decisions and choices, and the life story of an Indian teenager would be complete. ---------------------- The last few years of school are the most memorable; grades, stress and career mixed with friends, fun and dreams. But most of the time when we are planning our awesome candid picture-perfect life, we end up crossing the 'i's and dotting the 't's. ------------------------------------ COMPLETED ON JULY 14, 2018 Featured in the teen fiction reading list of Wattpad India!

Winner of Wattpad India Awards 2020 (Judge's Choice) in the New Adult category. ~*~ "The lights are cheeky, you can't live without them, and yet if you get too close, they'll blind you. Darkness? Well it doesn't cheat. It's cool and soothing. It's reliable." ~*~ Madhulika Thakur thought it would be a good break from work when she agreed to visit the countryside. After all, someone needed to sort out the property her family owned there, and real estate was her forte. What she didn't expect was to be engulfed by a landslide of issues just waiting to be addressed. She must navigate her way through the mess of a fragile social fabric, complex caste equations and the sheer helplessness of the people she never knew worked for her; all the while trying to regain the trust of a long-abandoned old friend. For the first time in her life, she must choose between what she wants and what is right. ~.~ Cover by @chaashnee
