Series: The Rajes #1
The proud and ambitious Raje family are descended from Indian royalty, a pedigree they take very seriously. They have had great success integrating into American society, with their son a gubernatorial candidate and their daughter a highly-acclaimed neurosurgeon. It is at a political event that their daughter, Trisha Raje, meets chef DJ Caine, and sparks fly for all the wrong reasons: she's "arrogant"; he's the "hired help".
But when the pair realise that Trisha's dying patient is DJ's beloved sister, they must put aside their enmity to save her life. Meanwhile, what were once sparks of hostility are becoming sparks of a different kind...
A contemporary riff on the Jane Austen classic, Pride, Prejudice, and Other Flavors brings fresh new life to the well-loved tale of enemies-to-lovers, infused with the intoxicating flavours of India. Dev approaches issues of class, race and immigrant experiences thoughtfully and with humour. Featuring a cadre of culturally diverse and well-developed characters, lovers of the original won't be disappointed!
