Winnie grows up believing the future is written in the stars. But does falling for someone else mean giving up her prophecy and the chance to live happily ever after?
Bollywood film fanatic Winnie has grown up believing the future is written in the stars. Her family''s pandit predicted she would find the love of her life before her eighteenth birthday. So when her relationship with Raj collapses, despite him meeting all the criteria, Winnie is lost. This is not how her perfect ending is scripted.
Then fellow film geek Dev challenges Winnie to look beyond her horoscope: is taking the future into her own hands the way to find her happily ever after? To get the perfect ending, Winnie will need a little bit of help from fate, family and, of course, a Bollywood movie star.
A fate-filled debut sure to dazzle fans of Stephanie Perkins, Maureen Johnson and Sandhya Menon.
"I absolutely adore this book. Witty, fun, believable characters - I wish it had been around when I was in my teens, however it is DEFINITELY one of those YA books adults can enjoy too. I feel so inspired to go and watch lots of Bollywood movies now!!"
