Maya Mirza's unlucky-in-love past seems to be turning around when she ends up in an arranged marriage to the on-paper perfect man; but as she heads to her wedding in Pakistan, she finally meets the man of her dreams, who isn't the man to whom she is arranged to be wed. Original. - Harlequin
"A charming, funny, and unique twist on challenging the laws and traditions that shape us."
âAbby Jimenez, New York Times bestselling author of Yours Truly
A bride-to-be convinced sheâs cursed in romance finds her luck changingâat exactly the wrong time.
Maya Mirza is so convinced sheâs unlucky in love that sheâs come up with a list of laws to explain it. Most importantlyâ¦- Mayaâs Law #1: Anything that can go wrong will go wrong.
But thatâs about to change. Mayaâs headed to Pakistan for an arranged marriage with a handsome, successful doctor who ticks all the right boxes. First comes marriage, then comes loveâsheâs sure of it. Exceptâ¦- Law #4: When you think youâre lucky, think again.
From the start, Maya's journey is riddled with disaster, and the cynical lawyer seated next to her on the plane isnât helping. When a storm leaves them stranded in Switzerland, she and Sarfaraz become unlikely travel companions through bus breakdowns and missed connections.- Law #6: Trips are never smooth sailing.
And before long, Mayaâs wondering whether sheâs just experienced the ultimate in misfortuneâfinally meeting the right man a few days before she marries someone else. And Maya might just be the worst person to keep a secret.- Law #18: If youâre overtired, youâll always spill your guts.
But maybe, if sheâs willing to bend some laws, this detour could take her somewhere totallyâand wonderfullyâunexpected.
"Rooted in Pakistani and Muslim culture and faith, this romance is a fun romp that features plenty of adventure and plot twists. Recommend to fans of Uzma Jalaluddin."
