Heartbreak Geeks

For fans of Today Tonight Tomorrow My Week with Him and 10 Things I hate About You all with a brilliant South Asian twist by emerging YA talent Anam Iqbal. Aliya and Kabir are rivals, both willing to do whatever it takes to remain top of the class…..but the playing field isn’t level. At their elite private school Kabir is basically royalty! He’s the most popular boy in the school: smart, funny and determined. He never loses sight of his goals and prides himself on being loved by everyone, teachers included. Everyone except Aliya, the quietly confident scholarship student. To her, he represents EVERYTHING she hates. He’s rich, obnoxious and pokes fun at her at every chance he gets. When forced to pair up and help each other with their university applications their academic rivalry heats up. They both begin pulling out the stops and each vow to do everything they can to outshine the other. Aliya refuses to let her scholarship go to waste and be beaten to a place at a top university by someone who doesn’t really deserve it. Without an audience Kabir is suddenly vulnerable and shares all the tips and tricks he’s learnt along the way. As the pair spend more time together, Aliya begins to lets her guard down. She realises that maybe she doesn’t hate Kabir. And maybe, he doesn’t hate her either? Or perhaps, this is just another one of their games…..
