This story of first love with a happily ever after ending will make you smile even with tears in your eyes. Fresh out of IIM-Ahemdabad, excitedly, she moved to Mumbai to join her first job. What could be more thrilling than living an independent life in a big city, alone in a friend's apartment? She had many dreams and had prepared a long list. Weirdly, a stranger began striking them off - one after another. Did he know? He was a young and handsome bachelor - head of the office next door. This man of outdated principles was an unintentional heartbreaker. He broke every heart which was given to him - in college & then at work. Will the curse of broken hearts let him remain happy? Classmates, BFFs, colleagues, & subordinates do flirt harmlessly - They are humans who need to laugh the stress away. Unfortunately, cupid can strike anywhere - studying together or working in teams. The trouble begins when he hits only one of the two lovers. Then, hearts ache or break. The characters of the novel: Hriday: means heart in Hindi. An IIT engineer & Emory MBA heads the Indian operations of an MNC. The software giant employs 200 youngsters, smart & intelligent, so definitely good-looking. The CEO has a posh three-bedroom apartment, a Ducati motorbike, & a fat paycheck, but he is single, despite his pleasing personality. Simplicity, purity of thought, & good work ethic have kept him a bachelor. Jiniya: means flower in Bengali. True to her name, she is as desirable as a morning rose. We don't know much about her! Why? She is a pretty compulsive liar. We know about her being well educated, fresh post-graduate, & starting a career in a private finance company. The unmarried nymph admits that she lies! Find out why? Gurnoor: is a feminine Sikh name (light of God). This Punjabi Jat is number two in Hriday's office. The efficient coder, bubbly entertainer, & magnetic charmer had zero fat on her well-toned hourglass figure. When she was a student, this mesmerizing beauty had the nickname Tornado. Why? Da Ji: in mythology, was a favorite consort of King Zhou of Shang in China. A classic example of how a beautiful woman can cause the downfall of a dynasty. Our Da Ji has European genes in her. The British brunette is not like her Chinese namesake. Or is she? Jugnu: a fitness freak villager from Agra. Thanks to his stock-picking skills, he is Warren Buffet in the making. Married to a homemaker Asha, he stays with his parents in a villa. Careful! He is Hriday's BFF.

From chef and creator of the popular food blog Domesticate-Me.com, 125 outrageously delicious yet deceptively healthy recipes for dudes (and the people who love them), accompanied by beautiful full-color photography. Dudes. So well intentioned when it comes to healthy eating, even as they fail epically in execution—inhaling a "salad" topped with fried chicken fingers or ordering their Italian hero on a whole wheat wrap (that makes it healthy, right?). There are several issues with men going on diets. First, they seem to be misinformed about basic nutrition. They are also, generally, not excited about eating "health food." You can lead a dude to the salad bar, but you can’t make him choose lettuce. Enter Serena Wolf—chef, food blogger, and caretaker of a dude with some less than ideal eating habits. As a labor of love, Serena began creating healthier versions of her boyfriend’s favorite foods and posting them on her blog, where she received an overwhelming response from men and women alike. Now, in The Dude Diet, Serena shares more than 125 droolworthy recipes that prove that meals made with nutrient-dense whole foods can elicit the same excitement and satisfaction associated with pizza or Chinese take-out. The Dude Diet also demystifies the basics of nutrition, empowering men to make better decisions whether they’re eating out or cooking at home. Better still, each recipe is 100% idiot-proof and requires only easily accessible ingredients and tools. With categories like Game Day Eats, On the Grill, Serious Salads, and Take Out Favorites, The Dude Diet will arm dudes and those who love them with the knowledge they need to lead healthier, happier lives—with flattened beer bellies and fewer meat sweats. The Dude Diet includes 102 full-color photographs.

Does Buddhism require faith? Can an atheist or agnostic follow the Buddha’s teachings without believing in reincarnation or organized religion? This is one man’s confession. In his classic Buddhism Without Beliefs, Stephen Batchelor offered a profound, secular approach to the teachings of the Buddha that struck an emotional chord with Western readers. Now, with the same brilliance and boldness of thought, he paints a groundbreaking portrait of the historical Buddha—told from the author’s unique perspective as a former Buddhist monk and modern seeker. Drawing from the original Pali Canon, the seminal collection of Buddhist discourses compiled after the Buddha’s death by his followers, Batchelor shows us the Buddha as a flesh-and-blood man who looked at life in a radically new way. Batchelor also reveals the everyday challenges and doubts of his own devotional journey—from meeting the Dalai Lama in India, to training as a Zen monk in Korea, to finding his path as a lay teacher of Buddhism living in France. Both controversial and deeply personal, Stephen Batchelor’s refreshingly doctrine-free, life-informed account is essential reading for anyone interested in Buddhism.
