Raina Kapoor doesn’t believe in fate. She writes horoscopes for a living, but her faith in the stars ends at the screen of her laptop. After a decade of playing it safe—professionally polished, emotionally guarded—her life takes an unexpected turn when Derek Wilder, a data analyst with a talent for order and an allergy to chaos, walks into her newsroom with spreadsheets and a mission to “fix” her beloved column.

Their collision is instant. Her wit clashes with his logic, her heart with his rules. Yet beneath the teasing and debates about probability and planets, something starts to shift. What begins as irritation turns into fascination, and fascination turns into a connection that defies explanation—something neither data nor destiny could have predicted.

Set against the hum of New York City and the glow of screens and candlelight, The Curve of Fate explores what happens when two people challenge each other’s definitions of love, belief, and control. Raina, a plus-size writer who’s learned to armor herself with humor, must decide if she can trust someone who sees her not as a project, but as a choice. Derek, haunted by loss and logic, learns that vulnerability isn’t weakness—it’s courage measured in heartbeats.

Warm, witty, and emotionally layered, this body-positive romance celebrates imperfection and authenticity. It’s a story of two opposites who stop orbiting fear and find gravity in each other. For readers who crave slow-burn tension, banter that bites and heals, and love stories where the heroine’s joy and confidence are her power, The Curve of Fate reminds us that destiny isn’t written in the stars—it’s written in the choices we make.
