Once......Agains...... (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798197165459)

What happens when a perfection-obsessed celebrity chef declares war on a stubborn dosa batter queen?

Hyderabad is about to find out.

Aarav Varma built his reputation on precision, luxury, and culinary perfection. His upscale restaurant, Copper Tawa, is the crown jewel of Hyderabad's elite food scene. Every dosa leaves his kitchen like edible art... until one disastrous morning changes everything.

The culprit?

A thin, watery dosa batter.

The bigger culprit?

Meera Subramaniam.

Owner of a tiny traditional batter shop hidden in the bustling streets of Hyderabad, Meera has no patience for arrogant chefs with imported knives and oversized egos. She learned recipes from her late mother, built her business through heartbreak and survival, and knows one thing better than anyone:

A good dosa doesn't need perfection.
It needs patience.

But when a viral food critic destroys Aarav's reputation, a monsoon disaster floods Meera's kitchen, and six kilograms of batter meet a tragic end, the two are thrown into a hilarious tug-of-war filled with:

• sizzling arguments,
• midnight scooter rides,
• accidental candlelight dinners,
• burnt pride,
• stolen glances,
• and chutney-fueled romance.

Somewhere between sarcasm and sambhar...

they begin falling in love.

Slowly.

Messily.

Beautifully.

Because love, much like dosa batter, rises best when left alone long enough to breathe.

Packed with warmth, humor, food, family emotions, monsoon magic, and unforgettable chemistry, Once... Agains... is a heart-melting Indian romance that will make you laugh, cry, crave filter coffee at 2 a.m., and believe that the best love stories are never rushed.

Perfect for readers who love:

• enemies-to-lovers romance,

• foodie romances,
• heartfelt humor,
• and cozy monsoon vibes.

A deliciously emotional romance by K. M. Avander that proves some hearts need time to ferment before they finally rise.
