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

Rudra Malhotra ❤Love? People are lucky to have real love in life. I am just not one of them, I am from the unlucky list of people. Aanya Raichand ❤Love? Comes with compromises and sacrifices. And I am not ready for it. Or maybe I don't deserve it. He was deep in love with someone who did not belong to him. She was just running away from love as she thought she was not capable of falling in love with someone else. When they meet everyone has to keep them at a safe distance to avoid them from killing each other. Despite all of the fights they have always stood to protect the other one. Two people with equally broken hearts and two different and beautiful definitions of love yet find it difficult to fall in love again. What happens when they meet again? What happens when he returns to India after 3 long years? Of course, double the hatered, double the profanities yelled at each other, and double the sexual tension. Join their journey full of madness, tears, smiles, hurt but above all Love. _______________________________________________ "Are you not happy by getting your heartbroken once?" Aanya asked moving closer to me. "Do you think I have a control over it?" I chuckled. "I hope you remember you are not in India forever and involving with me is going to ruin you so fucking bad!" She chuckled moving her hands towards my shoulder while I held her waist. "What if I am willing to get ruined?" I asked and she laughed. My heart will explode! "If you know we are both going to get ruined after this why do you want to continue it?" She asked with hope in her eyes. "So that this time around I don't runaway from all the memories of India. I rather have your smiling face in my memories and cry with a smile then lose this chance of having you near me just to protect my heart." I said honestly.

She's a wild, free spirit who sees the good in everyone, and he's the hardened, bad-tempered loner who wants nothing to do with her-yet no matter how hard he tries to push her away, she's the one temptation he can't escape. *** He's never met someone with such a bubbly personality. Not to mention the wildness and odd phrases she says every five minutes. He hates it. He hates how he can't stay away from it. He hates what she does to him; it's not like him to chase after some girl. She gets under his skin like no other. She's never met someone with such a bad attitude. He's ill-mannered and menacing. The glare never seems to leave his face. Considering it all, she can't help but feel the attraction toward him. Dangerous attraction toward a seemingly dangerous man. Maybe it's the tattoos on his arm that gets her attention. Or maybe it's because she can tell there's hope for good under his rough exterior. And she's about to find it, whether he likes it or not. It's no secret that the two of them are complete and total opposites. *** "You like being called Sugar, don't you?" I tease, placing my toothbrush back after finishing. He does the same and gives me a side-eyed scowl. He grips my chin harshly and kisses me. My body temperature raises a good ten degrees and my right leg goes all wiggly. He pulls away. "You like it when I kiss you, don't you?" He teases the same way I did to him and I'm left blubbering. "I think both of our questions are rhetorical," I lower my voice up at him. His lip curls up into a smirk. *** #1 in Young Adult #9 in Badboy #1 in Cold #3 in Goodgirl #1 in Sweetheart #14 in Love *** *Warning* This story contains mature themes (language, scenes)
