Accidentally engaged [sound recording] / by Heron, Farah,author.; Nankani, Soneela,narrator.; Blackstone Publishing,publisher.; Hachette Audio (Firm),publisher.;
Read by Soneela Nankani."Reena Manji doesn't love her career, her single status, and most of all, her family inserting themselves into every detail of her life. But when caring for her precious sourdough starters, Reena can drown it all out. At least until her father moves his newest employee across the hall--with hopes that Reena will marry him. But Nadim's not like the other Muslim bachelor-du-jours that her parents have dug up. If the Captain America body and the British accent weren't enough, the man appears to love eating her sourdough creations as much as she loves making them. She sure as hell would never marry a man who works for her father, but friendship with a neighbor is okay, right? When Reena's career takes a nosedive, she decides to follow her heart by entering a video cooking contest to win the artisan bread course of her dreams. The one problem? It's couples only. Nadim happily agrees to fake an engagement so they can enter the contest, but as cooking at home together brings them closer and her family gets wind of the situation, Reena can't help thinking her faux fiancé might just be the real deal"--

Black river / by Roy, Nilanjana S.,author.;

With only one officer under him, and only a single working revolver between them, can he bring justice to a grieving father and an angry village - or will Teetarpur demand vengeance instead?
