She fell in love with his characters and he fell in love with her. ● After unknowingly falling in love with a bestselling author hiding behind a false identity, a college girl must decide whether she can trust the man who broke her heart-especially when he refuses to stop fighting for a second chance. ---- Synopsis Rishit Rathore is Reez - one of the most celebrated contemporary authors in India, known for emotionally devastating fiction and an identity so carefully guarded that his readers have never seen his face. He moves through the world with quiet control, his public persona a carefully maintained mystery. Bhavya Singh is a final-year English student who commutes two hours each way to college by bus. She is a devoted reader of Reez - she owns every book he has written, defends his characters fiercely, and has never once questioned whether the man behind the words might be someone she could actually meet. They meet on a morning bus. Rishit recognises the cover of his own book in her hands. He watches her read. He watches her argue, quietly, with his choices. Somewhere between her murmured conviction that his heroine could have been saved and the moment she steps off at her stop without ever looking up, something in him shifts.
