Description

Seven years ago, twenty-three-year-old Ahaana Bhatt and twenty-five-year-old Ved Krishnan were the most spectacularly unsuitable couple in their friend group — engaged within eight months, broken up within fourteen, and never spoken to one another again in the seven years since.

Then, on a wet Bangalore Tuesday morning in October, they end up at the same Indiranagar coffee shop. Then, by an unkind coincidence of meetings and clients, they end up at the same coffee shop the following Tuesday. And then — by some logic that neither of them is willing, just yet, to call a choice — every Tuesday morning for the next four months.

Ahaana, now thirty, runs a successful sustainable-fashion label and is, on paper, two weeks away from getting engaged to a perfectly nice consultant her mother adores. Ved, now thirty-two, is a divorced architect who has just moved back to Bangalore from Berlin, alone, with a slightly broken leg and a long therapy history he is not particularly eager to discuss.

Across sixteen Tuesday coffees, one unplanned Sunday in Coorg, a wedding neither of them was supposed to attend, and one terrible, beautiful conversation on a Cubbon Park bench at sunset, *Coffee, Twice* is a tender, slow-burning, deeply contemporary romance about two adults brave enough — finally — to ask the question they were too young to ask the first time around.

Warm, sensual, and impossibly readable. The perfect Indian romance for fans of Emily Henry.
