STARS WILL GUIDE YOU HOME

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

As teenagers, 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 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 is a national bestselling author whose words have inspired an entire generation of readers to chase their dreams. Leaving behind a corporate career, she set out on a journey to share life-changing stories with the world, one book at a time. Over 1,50,000 copies of her books have found their way into the hands of readers, touching more than 6,00,000 lives and making her a voice of hope, adventure and self-discovery.

She is the author of On the Open Road, You Only Live Once, Where the Sun Never Sets, Make a Move and Lost & Found. Her book You Only Live Once earned a place in The Economic Times’s ‘11 Best Books to Shape Your Thinking as Your Ideal Self’ in 2023, alongside other modern classics.

Stuti has been a sought-after speaker at leading corporate houses and esteemed educational institutions like the Indian Institute of Technology, Indian Institute of Management, Shri Ram College of Commerce and the Shri Ram School, where she inspires young minds to dream fearlessly and embrace life to the fullest. Her work has garnered widespread recognition in major media outlets, including The Economic Times, India Today, Zee News, Dainik Bhaskar, The Nav Bharat Times, Deccan Chronicle, YourStory, Deccan Herald, Harper’s Bazaar, Scroll, Entrepreneur, SheThePeople, Sheroes, RedFM and ET Edge, and also featured in prominent book festivals across the country.

Stuti’s hometown is Indore, but now home for her is New Delhi, where she lives with her husband, Kushal Nahata, and their daughter, Avyana. A traveller and seeker at heart, she values experiences over possessions. Wandering through sunlit streets, bustling cafés and quiet corners of the world, she’s always looking for stories waiting to be told.

When she’s not writing, Stuti’s either immersing herself in nature or losing herself in creativity—reading a book, strumming her ukulele, dancing her heart out, running uphill, cruising down the highway or swimming in the sea. She finds joy in life’s simple pleasures—skygazing, gardening, painting, creating and decorating. She could dance all day long; for her, dance isn’t just movement—it’s pure freedom, a celebration of life itself.
