Resumen del Editor

A perfect disaster - or a perfect match? Find out in this heartfelt rom-com novella....

"Just three dates. That's all I'm asking. One boy shares your sense of humor. Another has similar interests and ideals. The third boy has a helpful heart like yours."

When Aditi Gupta comes home late from work as a pediatric resident one night and her grandfather offers this pitch, she reluctantly agrees. She's far too busy with med school to be dating, and besides, she dreams of a love for the ages, like her parents, not an arranged marriage. And yet she finds herself agreeing to three dates because she loves her grandfather. All she has to do is make herself utterly ineligible and problem solved! 

And sure enough her first date with the disgustingly handsome and intriguing Krishna Lal goes exactly as planned: not well! But then the second date comes around and Aditi finds that there is more at stake than just three bad dates. Suddenly, her heart is on the line, and maybe her grandfather's, too.

Smiled from start to finish

I smiled from start to finish, loving the humor, charisma and banter between these two. And the oh so romantic ending. The narrators were great.

AbAd...

Absolutely
Adorable.
Also absolutely predictable, but isn’t that what a romcom’s for? HEA required, we just *pretend* to worry because we know the bottom’s not going to drop out, our heart’s won’t sink and our ship will sail sweetly and joyfully off into the lovely sunset of our vicarious dreams.
Happy sails to you, K+A&D+D=TL💘😍😘🥰😍💕

Hopeless Romantic

What a fun well written story that was narrated brilliantly. It was just the right length, I enjoyed every second. The author should do a follow up to let us know how the couples made out.

That was SO GOOD! 😍💕🇮🇳

I loved this story! It was so cute. The narrators were fantastic too. Highly recommend! Reminds me of my Nani 🥰

Cute story, but didn't love the ending

At first I thought Aditi's narrator was boring, but I grew to like her. I like that you had Aditi and Krishna's point of view in the story. I wasn't a fan of the ending though, Krishna and Aditi have very different views on what Aditi wants out of a relationship. The author didn't suggest that either would be willing to change their mind, so I don't see the point in pursuing it in the first place. These are grown adults, so it seems like it'd be a waste of time given how busy they both are, so the ending was just something I'd expect from a teen romance not this story. But all in all was a cute story, I love the grandparents in the story!

Cute story, but Krishna’s narrator…

His female voices were almost insulting. It’s a breezy story to listen to, but be prepared.

short & sweet

If you are looking for a very sweet, funny & fast read, here you go.

warmth with love.

loved the story. the heartfelt of family respect with love. the narration was great. I

To soon

l liked the story line. It was nice to read about Indian dating life. No jumping into bed first! I felt the switch from the doctor Aditi and Krishna's dating and then setting up their grandparents was too soon. I was just getting used to Aditi and Krishna! I wished the story had stretched out a little more for both couples. And Krishna's "F" bombs were excessive. I'll be looking for more stories from this author.

Fun short story

This was a well performed short story but the characters could have been fleshed out more. Krishna was described as funny but he didn’t make jokes. Aditi was a little abrasive. The narrators did a great job.
