Brighabujamba ‘Bee’ Vishwanathan hates her name, her current job at Krikket-365 and cricket itself. To keep her job, Bee has to score an exclusive with a member of the Indian team before the T20 World Cup final. When she falls on to the hotel balcony of broody assistant coach Arhan Kapoor while trying to spy on the team, Bee does not think her life could get worse. Arhan loves cricket with a passion that is only rivalled by his hatred of journalists. After the team is affected by the untimely death of their vice-captain, he has only two mandates: motivate the players to a win and keep them away from the media. A nosy reporter managing to full toss her way into the team is his worst nightmare. However, when the team’s physiotherapist turns up dead and someone makes an attempt on Bee’s life, she and Arhan have to join forces to investigate those out to sabotage India’s chances at the Cup. Can two people on opposite sides of a pitch trust each other and bring down a cold-blooded killer? Or will the match end before the last ball is bowled?

About the Author
Aarti V Raman is the author of more than thirty contemporary romance novels. She loves to write about hot-mess desi girls who bring strong, filthy rich and powerful heroes to their knees. A happy ever after is guaranteed but not without lots of angst, spice and thrills. When torturing her characters emotionally isn’t enough, she puts them in actual danger! Aarti learned this trick after reading thousands of romance novels and deciding to tell stories her way, starring characters who looked and sounded like her. The Worst Daughter Ever has been optioned for a screen adaptation while her Millionaire Foes series is on a time capsule bound for the moon. Many of her books have hit the Amazon US and India Top 100 and Top 50 bestseller lists. But what gives Aarti the most pride is knowing that she is living her own version of her favourite three words—happy ever after—thinking up more stories to entertain herself (and the romance-reading world) with her large and largely tolerant family.
