Congrats to my friend @sonali.dev on her new release. Get ready to ride the emotion train to HEA in the #theemmaproject
About the book:
Emma gets a fresh Indian-American twist from award-winning author Sonali Dev in her heartwarmingly irresistible Jane Austen inspired rom com series.
No one can call Vansh Raje’s life anything but charmed. Handsome—Vogue has declared him California’s hottest single—and rich enough to spend all his time on missions to make the world a better place. Add to that a doting family and a contagiously sunny disposition and Vansh has made it halfway through his twenties without ever facing anything to throw him off his admittedly spectacular game.
A couple years from turning forty, Knightlina (Naina) Kohli has just gotten out of a ten-year-long fake relationship with Vansh’s brother and wants only one thing from her life…fine, two things. One, to have nothing to do with the unfairly blessed Raje family ever again. Two, to bring economic independence to millions of women in South Asia through her microfinance foundation and prove her father wrong about, well, everything.
Just when Naina’s dream is about to come to fruition, Vansh Raje shows up with his misguided Emma Project... And suddenly she’s fighting him for funding and wondering if a friends-with-benefits arrangement that’s as toe-curlingly hot as it is fun is worth risking her life’s work for.

In lovely #chicago today for the #springfling @chicagonorth biannual #writers conference. This is an in-person and virtual #writing conference, so everyone can enjoy the experience.
There’s a live signing with favorite authors, an auction… so much to absorb and enjoy.
Hopefully you didn’t miss @sonali.dev ‘s masterclass on building stronger empathetic characters.
I’m holding an arc of #sistermotherwarrior, a #london backpack full of arcs and books from my friends. Checkout the auction and more: https://chicagospringfling.com/
Chicago is pretty in #Spring. What cities do you love in Spring?
