Can't Help Faking In Love
An irresistible fake-dating desi romance!
A young woman with Bollywood roots hires a barista to act as her boyfriend for her cousin's wedding -- only to learn you can't fake chemistry like theirs -- in this desi romance from the author of Match Me If You Can
Harsha Godbole is struggling to make ends meet as an aspiring photographer making a name for herself away from the glitz and glamour of her family's Bollywood fame.
With her cousin's wedding looming, and the pressure from her family to bring a date, she finds herself in a fake dating contract with the handsome, but hesitant, barista at her favourite coffee shop, Veer Kannan.
Veer needs money to help support his younger brother through university, and so Harsha's generous offer is something he cannot refuse. As the two learn how to make their relationship convincing, sparks begin to fly, and their two different worlds may end up being just what they needed.

Publishing has a diversity problem. There are less 'diverse' books being published which limits the discoverability and reach of those authors.
Representation is important. Read more about why we exist here.
An anti-racist social enterprise bookstore specialising in BIPOC books.
Only about 11% of books published are by BIPOC authors — so unless you specifically seek out books by BIPOC authors, you aren't likely to find very many of them organically. At Amplify, BIPOC authors are highlighted and celebrated. Here, they don't have to fight to be seen, and you don't have to fight to find them.
We hope that in our shop, you can discover a new favourite read, find stories that speak uniquely to you, learn about a culture outside your own (or more about your own histories), and gain a better understanding of the systems that connect us all.
