Avani's favourite thing to do is bury her nose in romance novels—but, honestly, life can't be trusted to make the stories real, right?
In the bookstore where she works, a man walks in, straight out of the pages of her favourite love stories. Aman is hot, successful, seems to know what she's going to say before she's said it, and just cannot get enough of her. In short, he's perfect.
Then why is Avani losing her mind, ignoring the advice of her BFFs and trying to convince herself that he's just too good to be true? Will Aman ever be able to figure her out? And will Avani allow him to?
Wickedly witty, tender and utterly relatable at every turn, Too Good to Be True is the sparkling, true-blue, will-they-won't-they love story you've been waiting for!
