My Big, Fat Desi Wedding
Description
Desi Wedding Must-Haves: Drama. Food. Fashion. More Drama. More food. And, of course, nosy aunties and uncles
A family curse that turns spoken prophecy into truth. A world where your soulmate's feelings appear as words on your skin. A boy who has to decide whether or not to attend his brother's wedding even though their parents have forbidden it. A girl who encounters the boy she loved and lost and realizes where her heart truly lies. These genre-bending stories focus on the magic (and tension) of the biggest family gathering. Both award-winning and debut authors share stories of broken hearts, rekindled flames, unlikely romances, and one particular auntie who loves to meddle. From jewel-toned kurtas, music and dancing, to the aromas of cardamom and sugar, one thing is for certain: It's going to be an incredible season.Product Details
