Pungent curry...sweet fried onions...incense...colorful beads...lush fabrics. Shobhan Bantwal's compelling new novel is set on the streets of Edison, New Jersey's Little India, where a young businesswoman rediscovers the magic of love and family...

Since becoming a widow at age twenty-seven, Anjali Kapadia has devoted herself to transforming her parents' sari shop into a chic boutique, brimming with exquisite jewelry and clothing. Now, ten years later, it stands out like a proud maharani amid Edison's bustling Little India. But when Anjali learns the shop is on the brink of bankruptcy, she feels her world unraveling...

To the rescue comes Anjali's wealthy, dictatorial Uncle Jeevan and his business partner, Rishi Shah-a mysterious Londoner, complete with British accent, cool gray eyes, and skin so fair it makes it hard to believe he's Indian. Rishi's cool, foreign demeanor triggers distrust in Anjali and her mother. But for Anjali, he also stirs something else, a powerful attraction she hasn't felt in a decade. And the feeling is mutual...

Love disappointed Anjali once before and she's vowed to live without it-though Rishi is slowly melting her resolve and, as the shop regains its footing, gaining her trust. But when a secret from Rishi's past is revealed, Anjali must turn to her family and her strong cultural upbringing to guide her in finding the truth...

Perfect
Color: Black
The Lamicall Car Headrest Tablet Holder (3-in-1 Extendable) is exactly the adulting hack I didn’t know I needed until now. If you’ve ever tried to hold a tablet for a kid on a long ride and felt your arm turn into jelly, this thing is your escape plan. Setup is painless. It snaps onto the headrest in seconds and stays put like it actually wants to work. No wrestling with screws or an instruction manual written in ancient hieroglyphs. Stability is legit. Once the tablet is locked in, it doesn’t wobble, jiggle, or threaten to fall — even when someone in the backseat is basically auditioning for an earthquake simulation. That peace of mind alone makes this worth it. The 3-in-1 extendable design is slick. Adjust it for different viewing angles and distances so everyone (yes, even the seatmate who insists on leaning sideways) gets a great view. Landscape? Portrait? Gaming? Movie time? Covered. Build quality feels solid and durable, not like something that’ll snap after a few uses. It works with a range of tablet sizes too, so you aren’t limited to one device. Overall, this holder just works exactly how you want it to. Five stars because it’s practical, sturdy, and actually makes life easier — especially when peace in the backseat is on the line.

perfect for road trips
Color: Black
my sister lives 3 hours away, and being that i usually travel by myself with 2 small children, it's sometimes hard to keep them entertained for the trip. my husband bought this for me to keep in my car in case i need it and it has absolutely come in handy a few times. it's super sturdy, it fits perfectly behind my seat without taking up too much space or making my daughter feel cramped. it's challenging to use while driving when it's directly behind you but it does swivel close enough that you're able to do some things on the screen. however it does make it SUPER simple when you're in the passenger seat.

Used for 3 years, buying again!
Color: Black
Bought 2 of these 3 years ago. One of them just broke (a crucial plastic piece snapped so not fixable). But with the low price and the countless road trips we’ve used these on I feel I’ve gotten my moneys worth. Purchasing again. 5 stars.

Works ok. But not for thick cases
Color: Black
Works ok so far. Not good for thick tablet cases. Like foam ones or protective ones for kids.

Simple, easy, great!
Color: Black
10 out of 10 would recommend. We used it in our spring break trip and it was great. Held not only our kids iPads but phones as well. It was easy to install, not too expensive and for us it helped prevent car sickness which hits us all sadly. The fit was nice because it was adjustable, and the fact that the kids didn’t have to hold them for as great! This product was seriously the Best purchase I think I’ve done.
