Book Blurb:
On her first holiday in six years, Rumi is expecting
to relax and unwind. But when she is set up by her long-time friend, she
doesn’t shy away from the possibilities. Ahad, a charming, independent,
self-made man, captures her imagination, drawing her away from her disapproving
sister, Juveria.
Faced with sizzling chemistry and a meeting of the minds,
Ahad and Rumi find themselves deep in a relationship that moves forward with
growing intensity. But as her desire for the self-assured Ahad grows, Rumi
struggles with a decision that will impact the rest of her life.
Confronted by her scandalized sister, a forbidding
uncle and a society that frowns on pre-marital intimacy, Rumi has to decide
whether to shed her middle-class sensibilities, turning her back on her family,
or return to her secluded existence as an unmarried woman in Pakistan.
We follow Rumi from rainy London to a sweltering
Karachi, as she tries to take control of her own destiny

“Dependent!!?”
Mythili has just moved to the Philippines to be with
the love of her life and new husband, Siddharth. From being a hard-as-nails
reporter who covered crime stories of the goriest kind, Mythili is now just a
‘dependent’. On top of that, unemployment, encounters with expat-wives and
culture shock leave her feeling like she has fallen down a rabbit hole.
Mythili and Siddharth slowly come to realize that
being newlywed in a foreign country is very different from being passionately
in love, long-distance. Will this real life Alice find her way out of her own
little Wonderland, or will the Red Queen take her
