NEW DELHI, May 6, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Bestselling Author Stuti Changle Returns who Inspired a Generation to Follow their Dreams returns with a Love Story for the Digital Age.

This is not just a love story. It's a journey back home—to yourself. A tender reminder that even in chaos, love finds a way, and so do we.

ABOUT THE BOOK

Would you take a second chance at love if an app matches you up?

Kiana and Nirvaan were inseparable—until family expectations tore them apart. A decade later, despite having successful careers, their hearts are empty. Then, AILENA, a cutting-edge AI-powered dating app, matches them with a near-perfect compatibility—without revealing their true identities.

As their virtual bond deepens, past wounds resurface but love makes its way through their hearts until AILENA deems them incompatible and cuts their connection forever. What will they do: Trust the app or follow their hearts? Can their love survive the test of time and reality?

Set in India and the US, this is a story of love reimagined in the digital age. In a world where we are constantly connected yet feel lonely, Stars Will Guide You Home is a love story for everyone—the ones who overthink, the ones who let go too soon and the ones still hoping for a sign.

Stuti Changle, author, says, "I wrote Stars Will Guide You Home while grappling with the aching question of what 'home' truly means. Guided by something greater, like starlight lighting the way, I poured that journey into this story. It's not just a love story; it's a story about loneliness, heartbreak, healing, and self-discovery. Kiana and Nirvaan mirror the thoughts, feelings and desires of so many of us—searching for meaning, emotional safety, and real connection in a disconnected world. This book speaks to the heart of our generation: long-distance love, dating app fatigue, and the vulnerability of modern relationships. I'm deeply grateful to the HarperCollins India team for believing in this story. To see my fifth book take flight feels surreal and incredibly special—and I am very excited and looking forward to readers experiencing the story I've carried in my heart for so long."

Rashmi Menon, Executive Editor – HarperCollins India, adds, "Some stories leave you thinking; others leave you feeling understood. Stars Will Guide You Home does both. It's a heartfelt, modern romance about the courage it takes to follow love—and find yourself—through life's uncertainties in a world increasingly shaped by AI. With unforgettable characters and poignant twists, Stuti Changle deftly explores the tender spaces between technology and emotion, love and loss, ambition and belonging, and offers readers a journey that's as emotional as it is relevant. She brings warmth and heart to every page, and writes with honesty, tenderness and insight. We are delighted to bring this powerful, resonant story to our readers."
