Why can't life be straight? I thought. It seems God likes to complicate stuff and have fun at our cost, but then, what would life be if everything worked the way we wanted it to. There would be no surprises and no hope for anything new. Beautiful and rich Riya is convinced that college Casanova, Vidit, is the man of her dreams. So blind is her love that she doesn't pay heed to her best friend, the ever-practical Saachi's entreaties to steer clear of him. Meanwhile, Saachi has her own matters of the heart to contend with-she has fallen in love with the handsome Aadi who is averse to romance. Then, of course, there is the level-headed Manish, who loves Riya even though she spurns his every advance. As the story unfolds, Saachi, Manish and Aadi strategize to expose Vidit's cunning ways in front of Riya. Will Riya realize her folly and teach Vidit a lesson he will never forget? Will Aadi battle his inner demons and find a soulmate in Saachi? Set in Bengaluru and Goa, One Life to Love, is the charming coming-of-age story of four engineering students as they deal with the complex issues of love, friendship and relationships. A fun, uplifting and heart-warming read, this story will strike a chord with today's youth and inspire them to face life head-on.
