Sally Pearson:

26 years old

A renowned doctor (child specialist)

After her breakup with Rob, she's trying really hard to rediscover love because it's not easy feigning peace when your heart is constantly at war with you. An 8-year old relationship is never really expected to end and getting over it becomes even harder when you walk in your boyfriend's room and find him all over another woman who is also, not to mention, one of your best colleagues.

Loves rom coms. Is sensitive and kind.

Doesn't like being pushed around, though. Enjoys her independence.

Karan Sharma:

28 years old

A businessman who is well settled and very happy in his life.

He belongs to an extremely traditional family.

He was born and brought up in the US, but has the same integral, religious values of a perfect indian son.

His parents moved to the US a month after they got married.

His parents are a perfect couple and his mom's the more religious one in the duo, so expects her son to opt for an arranged marriage just like his parents.

Sally and Karan's parents are neighbors and both the families have unbreakable ties.

Years after Sally moved out and Anita and Arjun (Karan's parents) were Barbara and Clark's (Sally's parents) only company, the family still has sunday breakfasts together.

Karan being the totally desi kid, never moved out. Luckily he attended state college, so he didn't have to leave.

Sure Karan's had girlfriends, but Anita has never been keen on the idea of a love marriage. She claims to be open minded, modern and understanding, but fails to see her son's wish and he is forced to breakup with Rebecca: his one true love.

He is very sure he'll never find love again.

Tends to read books when he gets the time. He is logical, reliable and smart.

His divorce had left him fractured, and the idea of letting another woman into his life was daunting. But for the sake of his son, Amogh, he had to find a way. Unnati Kothari carried the weight of a troubled past, one that had led her to view men as nothing more than monsters. However, a deep-seated desire to become a mother persisted within her. When she met little Amogh through a mutual friend, her world shifted; the boy's laughter and innocence touched something in her, awakening dreams she thought she had buried forever. Brought together by the gentle nudges of friends and family, Eklavya and Unnati agreed to a marriage of convenience, each committing to the role of a parent for a child who needed more than either could provide alone. Yet, love- true, uncharted, and profound- remained an elusive mystery to them both. Could two souls so deeply marred by their pasts find the courage to trust and to heal? Would they ever allow their hearts to open and let love in, not just as parents to Amogh but as partners to each other? ------ Intended for mature readers, rated R (18+) for the subjects dealing with strong language, sexual content, abuse/ violence, and trauma. ------ One of the books from the 'Mad Love' series.
