Two students―worlds apart―unite to solve the mystery of a legendary decades-old love story gone tragically wrong in a captivating romance by the award-winning author of The Karma Map and Dating Dr. Dil . It doesn’t take long for ambitious freshman and aspiring engineer Jessie Ahuja to learn about two university legends. One is the haunted history of Davidson Tower, where more than fifty years ago, two ill-fated lovers disappeared in a devastating fire. The other is Ravi Kumar, a privileged billionaire nepo baby who’s aggravatingly charming and occupying more brain space than Jessie has room for. Things change when a campus prank locks them both in the old tower’s ghostly library. There, Jessie finds letters from the fabled lost lovers, forgotten in a hollowed-out copy of Persuasion . One by one, the letters suck Jessie and Ravi into a beguiling mystery and an achingly beautiful long-ago romance destined to go up in flames. It’s also drawing Jessie and Ravi―every bit as star-crossed―closer together. Can they overcome whatever fate has in store for them? Or are they just as doomed as the young lovers whose tragic end has become legend? “This pleasant romance underscores the challenges of immigration, both historically and currently. The pressures of South Asian parents and their aspirations and the contrasting hopes of their children are beautifully developed, alongside the mixing of different languages in the narrative… An easy, effortlessly enjoyable read.” ― Kirkus Reviews “An original, fascinating and fun read from start to finish… a deftly written and unreservedly recommended reading…” ― Midwest Book Review “The novel delves into the South Asian diaspora experience in higher education, the clash of social classes, and the loss of important cultural stories and history.” ― Booklist “[S]harp banter and steamy intimate scenes make the easy chemistry between the romantic leads sparkle.” ― Publishers Weekly Praise for Nisha Sharma’s The Karma Map “A heartwarming story about personal growth.” ― Kirkus Reviews “Sharma smartly interlocks…classic road-trip novel tropes, capitalizing on the inherent freedom of self-discovery while navigating familial traditions and expectations…[and] issues of class, identity, and spirituality.” ― Publishers Weekly “The book wrestles with the spirituality and ritualistic nature of Hinduism and centers the struggles of being a not-here-nor-there diasporic teen.” ― Teen Vogue Nisha Sharma is the award-winning author of The Karma Map , Dating Dr. Dil , and other adult contemporary and YA romances.
