Luv Under Starlight (Luv Shuv #2) by N.M. Patel

Description

Luv Under Starlight is a steamy, roommates-to-lovers romance, set in a small village in India, between a grumpy village teacher and her new sunshine American tenant, full of closed proximity goodness, an adorable little brother, and opening your heart to love after losing a loved one.

My life has one purpose: take care of my little brother Hari and my mother.

Five years ago, my father killed himself, leaving us behind to bear bone-deep agony and a back-breaking debt from a loan shark. All I care about is paying off this debt and giving my family a normal, happy life. Love and relationships have no place in my life.

Then I agreed to rent my room to the American roommate of my friend Akira’s boyfriend.

Luke Wilson.

A paying guest for the next three months.

I thought he would come in with the big bucks, and I’d get a breather from barely making ends meet. Never have I been more wrong in my life.

He came into my life with a big smile and an even bigger heart. He was joy and laughter and adventure. He was a beacon of sunshine in my dark, gloomy world.

I didn’t want to hear it. After all, he was leaving in three months. And I would be right here in my little village, taking care of my family.

But with every carefree smile and electrifying touch, he burrowed his way deep into my heart.

But I cannot allow myself to fall for him and be left behind by a person I love. Again.
