Girl Gone Viral: A Novel

In
Alisha Rai’s second novel in her Modern Love series, a reclusive investor goes
viral, shoving her into the world's spotlight—and into the arms of the
bodyguard she’s been pining for…

OMG! Wouldn’t it be adorable if he’s her soulmate???

I don’t see any wedding rings

Breaking: #CafeBae and #CuteCafeGirl went to the bathroom AT THE SAME TIME!!!

One minute, Katrina King’s enjoying an innocent
conversation with a random guy at a coffee shop; the next, a stranger has
live-tweeted the entire encounter with a romantic meet-cute spin and #CafeBae
has the world swooning. Going viral isn't easy for anyone, but Katrina has
painstakingly built a private world for herself, far from her traumatic past.
Besides, everyone has it all wrong...that #CafeBae bro? He isn't the man she's
hungry for.

 He's got a to die for.

With the internet on the hunt for the identity of
#CuteCafeGirl, Jas Singh, bodyguard and possessor of the most beautiful
eyebrows Katrina's ever seen, offers his family's farm as a refuge. Alone with
her unrequited crush feels like a recipe for hopeless longing, but Katrina
craves the escape. She's resigned to being just friends with Jas--until they
share a single electrifying kiss. Now she can't help but wonder if her crush
may not be so unrequited after all...
