Your world is about to be rocked.' Elena Armas, author of The Spanish Love Deception
'Hopelessly, brilliantly, wonderfully romantic. I loved it even more than The Love Hypothesis,and I didn't think that was possible' Cressida McLaughlin
From the New York Times bestselling author of The Love Hypothesis comes a new STEMinist rom-com in which a scientist is forced to work on a project with her nemesis - with explosive results.
Bee Königswasser lives by a simple code: What would Marie Curie do? If NASA offered her the lead on a neuroengineering project - a literal dream come true - Marie would accept without hesitation. Duh. But the mother of modern physics never had to co-lead with Levi Ward.
Sure, Levi is attractive in a tall, dark, and piercing-eyes kind of way. But Levi made his feelings toward Bee very clear in grad school - archenemies work best employed in their own galaxies far, far away.
But when her equipment starts to go missing and the staff ignore her, Bee could swear she sees Levi softening into an ally, backing her plays, seconding her ideas... devouring her with those eyes. The possibilities have all her neurons firing.
But when it comes time to actually make a move and put her heart on the line, there's only one question that matters: What will Bee Königswasser do?

About Author

Review
In Krishna: The 7th Sense, well-known author and globally acclaimed management professor, Debashis Chatterjee offers an allegorical view into the lives of a teacher (Keshav) and his old students (Neel, Kaya and others), and conjures up some unforgettable lessons in love.
This is a magnificent saga of passion and pain, acceptance and affection, faith and fulfilment—a story that is at once ancient and contemporary.
In a world where romance ignites and fades, we often find asking ourselves ‘what went wrong?’ But what if you were given another chance to discover the flame of ecstatic love? Imagine being in love all over again, or seeing your love from a timeless horizon. What if you had Shri Krishna as your mentor to help you navigate the passion and perils of your life?
Keshav thus said, ‘The ultimate destiny of a human being is to complete himself. It is the art of putting your whole life together—connecting yourself to your source. This is where you started. Your original nature is love…your seventh sense.’ This enchanting debut novel is best described as ‘The Prophet meets The Alchemist’.
"‘The book follows the lives of Keshav, Neel, Kaya and their friends—from their student days to adulthood, from a Lucknow business-school campus to a Rishikesh ashram—and, in doing so, explores fundamental questions about identity and faith. Debashis Chatterjee’s prose is often lyrical, and his story is sensitive and rich with meaning as it delves into the power of spirituality in the modern world.’ —Shashi Tharoor, Internationally acclaimed author and Sahitya Akademi awardee 2019
‘A novel that delves into different shades of love with depth and dexterity. With his poignant craft and powerful characters, Debashis Chatterjee takes us to a richly layered world of harsh realities and colourful fantasies. A compelling read.’ —Anees Salim, Eminent novelist and Sahitya Akademi awardee 2018
'In this novel, Dr Chatterjee, very creatively takes us on an exploration of the different dimensions of love and its power to transform. As one navigates the twists and turns of the character's lives, powerful insights reveal our true nature that emanates from love and how to tap into our highest potential through self-discovery. In between, are woven timeless lessons on life's persistent problems and their purpose of reuniting us to our Source. The book is riveting and delivers a thought-provoking experience.' -Swami Mukundananda, best-selling author and founder of JKYog "

Review
One morning, Anders wakes to find that his skin has turned dark, his reflection a stranger to him. At first he tells only Oona, an old friend, newly a lover. Soon, reports of similar occurrences surface across the land. Some see in the transformations the long-dreaded overturning of an established order, to be resisted to a bitter end. In many, like Anders's father and Oona's mother, a sense of profound loss wars with profound love. As the bond between Anders and Oona deepens, change takes on a different shading: a chance to see one another, face to face, anew.

Review
In a spellbinding new masterpiece by #1 New York Times–bestselling author Daniel Silva, Gabriel Allon undertakes a high-stakes search for the greatest art forger who ever lived
Legendary spy and art restorer Gabriel Allon has at long last severed ties with Israeli intelligence and settled quietly in Venice, the only place he has ever truly known peace. His beautiful wife, Chiara, has taken over day-to-day management of the Tiepolo Restoration Company, and their two young children are clandestinely enrolled in a neighborhood scuola elementare. For his part, Gabriel spends his days wandering the streets and canals of the watery city, parting company with the demons of his tragic, violent past.
But when the eccentric London art dealer Julian Isherwood asks Gabriel to investigate the circumstances surrounding the rediscovery and lucrative sale of a centuries-old painting, he is drawn into a deadly game of cat and mouse where nothing is as it seems.
Gabriel soon discovers that the work in question, a portrait of an unidentified woman attributed to Sir Anthony van Dyck, is almost certainly a fiendishly clever fake. To find the mysterious figure who painted it―and uncover a multibillion-dollar fraud at the pinnacle of the art world―Gabriel conceives one of the most elaborate deceptions of his career. If it is to succeed, he must become the very mirror image of the man he seeks: the greatest art forger the world has ever known.

At this most desperate of times, a warrior rises to defend the nation.
King Suheldev.

9. The Immortals of Meluha
Author: Amish Tripathi
Publisher: HarperCollins India
Print length: 415 pages
Release date: 15 August 2022
Price: 259.00(price may vary)
Review
1900 BC. In what modern Indians mistakenly call the Indus Valley Civilisation.
The inhabitants of that period called it the land of Meluha ? a near perfect empire created many centuries earlier by Lord Ram, one of the greatest monarchs that ever lived.
This once proud empire and its Suryavanshi rulers face severe perils as its primary river, the revered Saraswati, is slowly drying to extinction. They also face devastating terrorist attacks from the east, the land of the Chandravanshis. To make matters worse, the Chandravanshis appear to
have allied with the Nagas, an ostracised and sinister race of deformed humans with astonishing martial skills.
The only hope for the Suryavanshis is an ancient legend: ?When evil reaches epic proportions, when all seems lost, when it appears that your enemies have triumphed, a hero will emerge.?
Is the rough-hewn Tibetan immigrant Shiva, really that hero?
And does he want to be that hero at all?
Drawn suddenly to his destiny, by duty as well as by love, will Shiva lead the Suryavanshi vengeance and destroy evil?
This is the first book in a trilogy on Shiva, the simple man whose karma re-cast him as our Mahadev, the God of Gods.
