Too Good to Be True is Prajakta Koli’s debut novel, published by HarperCollins India on January 13, 2025. The publisher describes it as a contemporary, feel-good romance about Avani, a romance-loving bookstore worker, and Aman, who seems almost too perfectly matched to the love interests in her books.
What is Too Good to Be True about?
Avani loves romance novels and works in a bookstore. When she meets Aman, he appears to have stepped straight out of the kind of love story she enjoys. But his apparent perfection gives Avani reason to question whether she can trust what is unfolding between them. HarperCollins India frames the premise as a will-they-won’t-they love story; this overview avoids plot details beyond the publisher’s synopsis.
Genre and themes
HarperCollins India positions the book as a contemporary romance and rom-com, with a feel-good tone. Its publisher description also points to modern love, relationships, friendship, family and self-discovery. Those are the publisher’s descriptions rather than an independent literary assessment.
Who wrote and published the novel?
Prajakta Koli, also known as MostlySane, wrote the novel, and HarperCollins India published it. Koli described the book in the publisher’s launch announcement as “a fictional piece of my heart that has brought a lot of happiness to me.”

Release, recognition and editions
HarperCollins India announced the novel’s release for January 13, 2025. In a February 13, 2025 announcement, the publisher reported that 150,000 copies had sold within a month and that the book held the No. 1 position on Nielsen India BookScan’s Fiction Bestseller ranking at that time.
