About the Book: India’s top-selling writer Chetan Bhagat presents 12 Years: My Messed-Up Love Story, a compelling romance about the unlikely, electrifying connection between two people who should never work: Saket, a 33-year-old divorced, struggling Punjabi comic, and Payal, a 21-year-old rising star in private equity from a conservative Jain family with no relationship experience. Despite the massive differences in age, background, and beliefs, their undeniable chemistry forces them together, leading to an unputdownable and entertaining novel that grapples with the eternal question: When everything says they’re wrong for you, how do you know if someone is truly the one?
