Purnima Gupta believes that every relationship has a story, every secret has a consequence, and every choice leaves a mark. Drawn to stories of love, friendship, betrayal, and mystery, she writes emotionally layered characters whose lives are changed by a single moment. Her debut novel, Before the Vows: Some Secrets Never Reach the Altar, combines romance and suspense to explore what happens when the truth refuses to stay hidden. When she isn’t writing, she can often be found observing people, collecting stories, and imagining new twists for her next novel.
