A young magazine writer in Mumbai must prove her matchmaking skills & contend with growing feelings for her close family friend-in this debut romance Jia Deshpande, the ever-confident stylish fashionista, is a writer with Mimosa, Mumbai’s top women’s magazine, where she begrudgingly writes cliche articles about finding “the one.” Out of the office, Jia writes the messy truth of real love on her anonymous blog while balancing competitive family game nights & growing feelings for her childhood family-friend. If that wasn’t enough, Jia has been tasked with successfully setting up a coworker to get her boss’s approval for her new matchmaking column. It’s all in a day’s work for Jia. Jaiman Patil can’t help but be enamored by Jia and her meddling spirit. They’ve known each other since childhood, playing while their fathers bonded over business. Now he’s an honorary part of her family, ever since his own moved to America, leaving Jaiman behind to pursue his dream of running a local pub. Life with the Deshpandes is chaotic and loud, but it’s more love than he ever had growing up. It’s also a lot to lose, so confessing his deeply romantic feelings for Jia is completely out of the question. When Jia’s first attempt at matchmaking goes haywire, risking new friendships and her relationship with Jaiman, she must reevaluate her own thoughts on love. For the first time, Jia Deshpande doesn’t know how to juggle the obstacles ahead of her. Love may be a bit more complicated than she thought, but luckily, happily-ever-afters are never in short supply in Mumbai.
