Description
This is a story about finding yourself, finding your friends, finding love, and finding your culture-sometimes where you least expect it.
Dimple Lala doesn’t know what to think. She’s spent her whole life resisting her parents traditions. But now she’s turning seventeen and everything is more complicated than its’ ever been. Her best friend isn’t around the way she used to be (blame the boyfriend), and Dimple’s still recovering from a year-old break-up.
Then, to make matters worse, her parents arrange for her to meet a suitable boy. Of course it doesn’t go well…until a few weeks later, when dimple goes to a club and finds him spinning a magical web of words and music. Suddenly the suitable boy is suitable because of his sheer unsuitability. Complications ensue.
