520    Mili Rathod hasn't seen her husband in twenty years--not 
       since she was promised to him at the age of four. Yet 
       marriage has allowed Mili a freedom rarely given to girls 
       in her village. Her grandmother has even allowed her to 
       leave India and study in America for eight months, all to 
       make her the perfect modern wife. Which is exactly what 
       Mili longs to be--if her husband would just come and claim
       her. Bollywood's favorite director, Samir Rathod, has come
       to Michigan to secure a divorce for his older brother. 
       Persuading a naïve village girl to sign the papers should 
       be easy for someone with Samir's tabloid-famous charm. But
       Mili is neither a fool nor a gold-digger. Open-hearted yet
       complex, she's trying to reconcile her independence with 
       cherished traditions. And before he can stop himself, 
       Samir is immersed in Mili's life--cooking her dal and 
       rotis, escorting her to her roommate's elaborate Indian 
       wedding, and wondering where his loyalties and happiness 
       lie.
