First Comes Like by Alisha Rai digital book - Fable

Publisher Description

The author of The Right Swipe
and Girl Gone Viral returns with a story about finding love in all the
wrong inboxes...

Beauty expert and influencer Jia Ahmed has her eye on the prize: conquering the internet today, the entire makeup industry tomorrow, and finally, finally proving herself to her big opinionated family. She has little time for love, and even less time for the men in her private messages—until the day a certain international superstar slides into her DMs, and she falls hard and fast.

There’s just one wrinkle: he has no idea who she is.

The son of a powerful Bollywood family, soap opera star Dev Dixit is used to drama, but a strange woman who accuses him of wooing her online, well, that’s a new one. As much as he’d like to focus on his Hollywood fresh start, he can’t get Jia out of his head. Especially once he starts to suspect who might have used his famous name to catfish her…

When paparazzi blast their private business into the public eye, Dev is happy to engage in some friendly fake dating to calm the gossips and to dazzle her family. But as the whole world swoons over their relationship, Jia can’t help but wonder: Can an online romance-turned-offline-fauxmance ever become love in real life?

Beaming Face with Smiling Eyes“The family aspect of this book is so nice and unlike anything in the other books of this series. I wish we knew more about Dev’s brother. It goes a little bit into his history with him, but I want more. The quick wedding was a little unsettling for me. I thought it was so cute, their weekend away with the one hotel bed. I loved how he took her influencer job seriously. I loved Jia and seeing her grow from an influencer to figuring out that we wanted to transition to something else.”
“Social influencer meets descendant of Ballywiod stars. Relationships, family, marriage, including sexual content. Interesting look at Dubai/Indian traditions and family influence.”
