Recipe for Persuasion by Sonali Dev

DNF at 20%
Initially I was loving this—I was into the story about a young woman who was trying to save her deceased fathers restaurant while overcoming her fears and doing some radical UNTIL I was introduced into her ex-boyfriend and this great strong woman book turned into a mundane “the one that got away story” and quickly traversed into the same, tired, and exhaustingly predictable and unrealistic love story I wish authors would stop wiring.
I’ve been enjoying books about Indian women, and had hoped this would fill my craving, and while I LOVE Ashna, I can’t with this “plot.” I only half-liked #1 in the series (and for the life of me I cannot see how this is a #2 or related) so I’ll DNF before I’ve wasted more time.
