Summary
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?
Critic reviews
“Narrators Soneela Nankani and Vikas Adam delight listeners with this heartfelt romance with a dash of mystery.… Both Nankani and Adam fully embody their characters in expressive performances. Nankani showcases Jessie's determination and passion, while Adam captures Ravi's vulnerability and desire. Listeners will be mesmerized by Jessie and Ravi's developing relationship as they solve the mystery of the long-lost love letters.”—AudioFile Magazine
“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
“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
