This book is much inspired from the author of fifty shades and series.... E.L. James. The time when I read this fifty shades... I had this in me that I will write one love story which is Dark and intense.

Why did you choose this title - Headache in the heart?

The story focuses on one sided/ unrequited love story and that phase when you are into this, pain, love, no expectations... Headache in the heart is to explain that "to move on is not to stop loving You"

Quite different and catchy title
