'Hope and Sunshine', by Debasmita Nath Ghosh and published by Power Publishers, is a modern tale of love, but with the complications of professional stability and work-life management thrown in. True love can overcome all hindrances is the underlying theme of 'Hope and Sunshine'.

Ghosh has highlighted the different facets of love and how genuine love can change someone’s life. 
 
Naina, who is in love with Ved, craves for his love and respect but he is unable to give her anything. 
 
On the other hand, Aditya, her colleague is the one who takes care of her in her difficult times; with him, she can be her original self; she can have a conversation with him without expecting anything in return; she can be free.
 
Naina is able to understand that she is getting ignored by Ved with each passing day but her love for him refuses to fade away. 
 
She tries hard to be with him but when she comes to know that her efforts were more than that of Ved’s, she feels insulted and humiliated. 
 
Aditya, though, doesn’t express his affection towards Naina, chooses to stay by her like a caring friend. 
 
With time testing his patience and her commitment towards her relationship, Aditya and Naina’s love finally flourished. 
 
Stemming from love and mutual trust and respect, their relationship brews silently and with a maturity that is relatable.
 
The novel is divided into 14 chapters and each deals with an important phase in the characters’ lives. 
 
Some of the chapters lack brevity but they have the required twists and turns in order to grab the attention of the readers. 
 
The story ends on a happy note and love finally triumphs over all the difficulties and uncertainties. 
 
The book is expected to hit popular online stores like power-publishers.comflipkart.com, and amazon.com, soon.
