Prajakta Koli’s Debut Novel With Harper Collins Tops Bestseller Chart With Pre-orders

Prajakta Koli is stepping into the literary world with her first novel, “Too Good to Be True,” published by HarperCollins India. The book, which will be released in January 2025, has already made headlines by reaching the top of Amazon India’s Bestseller chart during pre-orders.

About “Too Good to Be True”

The story centers on Avani, a romance novel enthusiast who works in a bookstore. Her world takes an unexpected turn when Aman enters her life – a man who seems to have walked straight out of the pages of her favorite love stories. Aman is described as attractive, successful, and seemingly able to anticipate Avani’s thoughts. Despite his apparent perfection, Avani finds herself questioning the relationship, wrestling with doubts and the advice of her best friends.

HarperCollins India’s Executive Publisher, Poulomi Chatterjee, expressed excitement about the book, noting Koli’s remarkable connection with her audience and her versatility as a creator. The publisher sees the novel as a fresh and addictive voice in the romance genre, promising to touch readers’ hearts with its witty and relatable narrative.
