A DIVORCE. A REPLACEMENT. A SCHEME.
Ananya had the life every Indian daughter is supposed to want: a high-powered career in New York and a "perfect" marriage to Kenji. Then, she walked away.
Now, at twenty-nine, the silence of her apartment is filled only with the disappointed echoes of her mother's voice and the crushing weight of regret. When she sees the first photo of Kenji's new girlfriend, Mei-young, beautiful, and "perfectly" submissive-Ananya's grief turns into a cold, sharp blade of jealousy.
Forgotten is the exhaustion of the marriage. Forgotten is the reason she left. All Ananya knows is that Mei has her life-and Ananya wants it back.
But as Ananya begins a dangerous game of sabotage to reclaim her husband, she finds herself drawn deeper into Mei's world. Between the whispered traditions of their cultures and the high-stakes drama of Manhattan, Ananya begins to realize that her "enemy" might be the only person who truly understands her.
In this game of love and betrayal, the most shocking twist isn't who wins the man... it's who walks away
