Author: Sudeep Nagarkar

Publisher: Random House India

Price: 500

'The Romance Collection' by Sudeep Nagarkar comprises four bestselling romantic novels-Few Things Left Unsaid (2011), That's the Way We Met (2012), It Started With a Friend Request (2013) and Sorry, You're Not My Type (2014)- all based on real life incidents.

All the four stories revolve around a boy Aditya, who is a confused soul. He has many doubts about his aim in life. He seriously hates being an engineer but destiny takes him that way as he ends up getting admission in an engineering college against his wishes. While the first two novels talk about his love life with a fellow college friend Riya, the third one is about Aditya's close pal Akash, who has some conservative preference for girls. Last but not the least, the fourth story comes with a strict disclaimer that says 'handle all relations with care'.
