Book #1 of the Stars Series. ~She taught him to speak out loud He taught her to hear the silence~ ✨ "Do you remember, What the hell did you do Miss Ananya Rajput?" He said and ran his fingers through his hair. "Way to ruin his styled hair" the devil side inside me spoke. "He did that in frustration" the angel side argued. "Whatever the reason was, what he did was very hot" the perverted side of me was all ready to swoon. I shook my head and these three sides with their respective thoughts vanished. "What did I do now? "I asked cluelessly and he narrowed his eyes. "Because of what you did yesterday, my parents believe that you are my secret girlfriend "What nonsense!" Those are his favourite words. " Those are my favourite words! " I thought and he spoke at the same time. " But what did I do yesterday? " * Ananya Rajput, a carefree soul who likes to live her life the way she wants to. She might act too happy, she might be too crazy for this world, but at the end she was also deeply wounded by people she called her family, throughout her life. ❝We are on the earth to spread some love...and some cookies?❞ Sahil Khurana, a boy who cares about every small thing, and makes it right. Perfectionist is what they call him, but at the end he is tired of trying. A break up from his ex girlfriend of over 4 years was adding pain to his wounds. But acting like we are happy, is what we do in life. ❝When life doesn't make any sense, you're going right❞ And when this carefree Ananya meets the overthinker Sahil, The consequences leads them to date, Oops, fake date! But in this process, their broken part heals, Sparks flies, And Their Stars Align. The book can start off with some badly written grammar but I promise it gets better as you go on, if not the best. It's a silly little book with a simple plot and crack head characters. <3 Started : 15/04/2023 Status : 25/03/2024
