One Night Stand Shivam Verma

Alex is a frolic marketer who hates every relationship with girls that lasts longer than hangovers, which doesn't make him a drunkard. Apart from chasing skirts, he also has a day job he loves. He spends his every weekend, in some of the hip clubs of the city. This too was a weekend, and Alex had just sold some of his sexy ideas to a client, before he hit Floors on Fire, a club popular for hookups and flings. It is here he meets a fearless journalist Audrey, working on a secret story on the city's drug syndicate. They feel a spark, and the next thing that shakes Alex is waking up next to a dead body. What follows is a network of drug peddlers, hit men, corrupt policemen, notorious criminals, street muscle, media stories, scandals, in Alex's journey to find the killer, while he takes a stand for his innocence. ---Working in an Australian Travel Firm, young writer Shivam Verma was born and brought up in Lucknow.

He has a MBA in marketing from MIT, Pune and is pursuing Masters of Arts in Journalism and Mass Communication from Amity University. After his graduation, he has also been a founder of a media related IT startup. He believes all people in his life or those who come across are all part of his story. He is highly empathetic. The first book he had read was Deception Point by Dan Brown, and never had thought then that he would write one. For all books he had written, he'd drawn inspiration from his own life and experiences. He wishes his books to reach the mass of masses. If you see him little lost in thoughts, it might be a book threading up. Ideally he likes to write in a peaceful room, but has a fantasy for writing in a holiday retreat.
