This book follows Samara, Indian (wedding) photographer and child of a single, embassy father. Consequently, she hasn't had much time to settle everywhere or have a strong family bond with her dad. She's in Delhi for the wedding season with her dad when he has to move to Nigeria. This is what pushes her to stay at the Khannas, family friends of her father.
Sharav Khanna is the family head of the Khannas, in charge of both of his family and the family business. He is the serious and responsible one. He and Samara are exact opposites (she's nosy and cheerful). Though initially not into each other, he can't deny his attraction as she slowly helps his family. The problem? He's engaged.
This was a nice, lighthearted book. There were a couple of times where I laughed out loud. Samara and Sharav are loveable, as well as the rest of the Khanna family. I thought that the conflict extended longer than it should have, but it was enjoyable to read regardless.
