Aarav Shekhawat is the captain of the basketball team. He also is the picture perfect boy for teachers. An perfect example of backbencher with marks of a topper. Breaking rules comes to him naturally. He doesn't care much about anyone. Parties, girls, marks and basketball matches are his life. Vanshika Singh, a sweetheart whose life resides in her books and ghungroos. The perfect image of a girl for teachers and parents, alike. A shy, introverted girl whose main focus is to become the lawyer she dreamed of. ************************************************************* "Some rivalries are destined to be more than just competition." Vanshika Singh has spent years perfecting the art of being the best-top grades, impeccable reputation, and a determination that leaves no room for distractions. But there's one person who always manages to challenge her: Aarav Shekhawat, the infuriatingly charming basketball captain who also happens to be her fiercest academic rival. For years, their battles have been fought in classrooms and exam halls, every test a new battleground. But when an unexpected twist of fate forces them to work together, the fine line between competition and connection begins to blur. Late-night study sessions turn into stolen glances, arguments spark something deeper, and soon, Vanshika finds herself facing a problem even calculus can't solve-her growing feelings for the one boy she swore to defeat. In a world of academic pressure, unspoken words, and a love that defies logic, Vanshika and Aarav must decide: Will they remain rivals, or will they rewrite their story... together? How will these academic rivals become star crossed lovers? Which one of them falls first? ************************************************************ Jump into the book to find out❤️✨ This book does not contain any love angles or toxicity.
