It can also be love at first sight or hate at first glance, depending on how dramatic the set-up is [or how dramatic you are].This post is a chance for you to learn of the chaos and commotion that attended the first meeting between Mohini and Aalok of my #Indie romance, ‘No Escape from Love.’

#ShortStory – Smoke & Shadows – Romantic Intrigue by @AuthorReet
This short story is inspired by a need to revisit a time when it was more than all right to sit in coffee shops without a mask on, and to meet with relatives and friends as though a deadly virus did not lurk in the shadows.I had fun writing this from a male perspective and also enjoyed the challenge of exploring love, loss, acceptance, and intrigue in just a few words.

Book Review: ‘The Song of Distant Bulbuls’ by Simrita Dhir
The author's words bring to life pre independent, rural Punjab, and they color it with the hues of nostalgia. My parents and sisters spent every summer and winter in my maternal grandparents' home in their haveli in the village. I can vouch for every description and every dialogue resonating with me.
