This book started out kinda ok for me... Druv and Mira are engaged, Druv is ambitious and doesn't want to go on a trip so Mira heads to NYC on her own. Cue an accidental ring discovery and Mira gets set on a journey...
I really was pulled in during the second half, where the pieces of the story start coming together and it also moves into more action than I bargained for!
It's dual timeline and perspective, and whether you love or hate the characters, it's beautiful to see how it unfolds.
Thank you to Lake Union Publishing and Netgalley for an ARC.

I am a long time Sonali Dev fan, and this book was beyond beautiful.
I loved this, absolutely loved it. The story flows, it’s emotional, I found Mira relatable due to parental manipulation and guilting (certain types of parents transcend nationality), and I loved her journey to her true self.
Writing anything else feels too spoil-ery, so I will simply implore you to read this - it’s a gorgeous story of finding (and claiming) yourself, finding love, and finding home - and so much more ❤️❤️
Stunning and absolutely recommended.

I'm a fan of Sonali Dev's novels, and her latest is no exception. This story follows Mira, a recently engaged young woman who follows all the rules and is the "good" child in the family. When she happens upon a lost ring, she tries to find the owner and gets caught up in someone else's love story. In her search for what's right, she might finally gain the courage to stand up for herself - even if it means breaking a few rules.

I received an ARC of this book from NetGalley in exchange for my honest review.

4.5 stars
Once again, Sonali Dev delivers. I absolutely love the way she writes- the characters are SO REAL and are in actual real-life scenarios, and I appreciate any author who can do that. The story itself was very interesting and kept me engaged throughout. I finished this entire book in two sittings because I simply could not put it down.
I will definitely be recommending this to others.
