Mariyah’s – a seaside resort nestled in the Goan countryside casts a spell on the hearts of guests, giving them a respite from their self-aggrandising urban lives. Run by the winsome sibling duo of Marie and Patrick, the rustic yet contemporary charm of the place, as much as the warmth and winning attitude of the siblings, attracts a motley group to stay year after year at Mariyah’s and become friends.

Billionaire Maaya Shreyan – a stalwart representation of cutthroat capitalism, wanting to realise a childhood dream of owning a property in Goa, descends upon its cottages. Plotting a take-over, Maaya decides to spend a week at Mariyah’s where she meets Marie and the others. The highs and lows in the lives of each member of this motley group and what unfolds at Mariyah’s spins a compelling story of nostalgia, longing, loss and joy that keeps the reader turning every page.
