■WATTPAD INDIA AWARDS 2019 WINNER■ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀▪︎● ● ●▪︎ For the Delhi Tycoons' kids, life has always been too challenging, and it's no different for Arvika Deewan. It's not everyday that her divorced mother remarries another business man, and there definitely won't be a day that she would be ready to accept that. The only other option she has is to move in with her father who lives with her oh-so-perfect twin brother and somewhat understanding grandmother. But she knows that the heart needs to break to beat again, and so do Arnav Deewan's friends. But she never had it easy, and probably never will. With an emerging sibling rivalry, and somewhat deceiving friends and family, Arvika Deewan, the bad, bad girl, is going to be reformed. copyright © chaashnee 2018 ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀▪︎● ● ●▪︎ ▪︎Featured in 'Daily Dose of Chicklit' by Wattpad's official @Chicklit account ▪︎1 in #delhi (22 August 2019) ▪︎Popular Choice Awards Winner in the Hinglish category of Wattpad India Awards

*Completed* "I just want to know why." I say as I turn over, trying to find his figure through the dark of my room. "Why what?" He asks. "Why you're being so nice to me." I say quietly, vulnerability seeping into my words. "How we even became friends." He sighs, "I want to know how." I scrunch my brow. "How what?" His response is soft, the opposite of his sarcastic personality. "How you don't see it." ******* Reagan Holt was about as average as a high school student could be. She didn't play any sports, didn't participate in the popular activities, and wasn't the girl all the boys chased after. All except one boy. He wrote her a letter every week. Each letter described something new for him to love about her. Whether it was how beautiful her laugh was or how his heart swelled with every smile she gave, he never failed to write how he felt. So the two should be together, right? That's the way Reagan wants it, but there's just one problem. He signs his letters "Love, Anonymous." Now add an obnoxious, conceited, sex god into the equation and you get a teenage girl confused on who really loves her. The sweet, tender written anonymous lover, or the cocky, ignorant asshole? -REVIEWS- "You create such wonderful characters and I can't wait to see what happens next!" VampireSa5m41993 "Thank you for wonderful dogs and little brothers and eccentrically hormonal best friends!" -Nat-Attack "I am totally hooked on this book!" nbazinet "I love the way the story flows and that you have really roundabout characters.

〚FEATURED〛 ⭒⭒⭒⭒⭒ "My pick-up lines are great." "Yeah, and I have a pet llama." "You do??" "No, idiot." ⭒⭒⭒⭒⭒ Arc-en-ciel (n.): Rainbow He's the perfect example of a thundercloud. He's rude, grumbly, and frightening to most- ready to harshly rain down on anyone in his way. She's a human sunbeam, at best. She's the kind of person with a sunshine personality that everyone adores- bubbly, nearly always beaming, and looking to spread smiles. Working with your polar opposite might seem like the worst thing that could happen. But around every thundercloud's rain, there comes sunshine. And with the sun and rain, come rainbows. ⭒⭒⭒⭒⭒ Featured in Wattpad Teenfiction's 'Funny Bones' Reading list [no idea how that happened lol] [#1 in Adorable | 1# in Cute | 1# in LoveAtFirstSight } [#1 in BadBoy | 1# in Boyfriend| 1# in Fiction ] [#2 in GoodGirl | #2 in Romance] ©All rights reserved, available only on Wattpad [Cover images do not belong to me, all rights reserved by owners]

| Featured on Mystery, Crime and Fright, WattpadUrbanFantasy and more | Welcome to Haywood, home of the tastiest truffles and of course, mysterious deaths. ________________________ Charlotte Alberto had a plan. She would finish college, complete her first novel, publish it, become a bestselling author and die happy. What she did not plan on was to be arrested. Turns out, someone out there really wanted Charlotte out of the way and went to extreme heights to frame her for a strange crime or as the Haywood Police Department put it, the most creative murder yet. Being a writer herself, she knew this was the part in her story where something even worse happens but things take a humorous turn when a random, quirky stranger appeared on her room claiming to have no idea on how he got there. They were both from two very different lives, had two different problems and everyone was baffled on why they were randomly thrown into each others' paths. Seeing as Charlotte believes coincidence to be a myth, she is determined to find out more about where this stranger came from and most importantly, how he was connected with everything else. In the end they become victims themselves, not of murder but something just as evil. _______________________ Featured on @Fright - Psychological Crime and Thrillers @WattpadNanowrimo - Nanowrimo 2020 projects @WattpadUrbanFantasy - Dark as Death @WattpadCreepypasta - Romantic Ravioli @mystery - Curiouser and Curiouser @StoriesUndiscovered - May 2021 @PsychologicalNovel - Crime and Suspense @generalfiction _______________________ Started: Nov 2020 Finished: April 2021 PREVIOUSLY KNOWN AS LUCAS WHITMORE Cover by @FiftyShadesOfTimmy This is a standalone novel.
