Dr. Rihaan Mehta is a brilliant young neurosurgeon who has no inclination for love or marriage. According to him wives and girlfriends are annoying accessories that one can do without. But when his mother dangles the sword over his head in classic Bollywood style, he succumbs, and sets out in search of a bride who would fit his 'requirements'. But can Rihaan deal with what he gets instead?
Simi K. Rao was born and grew up in both northern and southern India before relocating to the U.S., where she has lived for several years. Inconvenient Relations is her first published novel.The inspiration for this book, and her other projects, comes from her own experience with cross-cultural traditions, lifestyles and familial relationships, as well as stories and anecdotes collected from friends, family and acquaintances.
Rao enjoys exploring the dynamics of contemporary American culture blended with Indian customs and heritage to reflect the challenges and opportunities many Indian-American women face in real life.
Much of Rao's down time is devoted to creative pursuits, including writing fiction, poetry and photography. She is an avid traveler and has visited many locations around the world.
The Accidental Wife – Excerpt #3
Typing ‘India Matrimonial’ into
the search engine, he was struck by the numerous responses that popped up almost
instantaneously.
His interest was piqued. Aside
from a few, most results appeared to be fairly legitimate outfits. The usually
traditional Indian wedding business had now turned commercial. All the marriage
brokers and pundits who relied on matchmaking as their primary source of income
would have to pack up their bags and move to the Himalayas ,
he thought chuckling.
He soon found himself engaged in
the activity of browsing through the huge databanks of boys and girls seeking
potential life partners. He was shocked at the variety he saw and equally
surprised at the way they presented themselves, especially how particular they
were about the kind of mate they wanted. It was just as Rudy had described—a
huge marriage market.
Finally after having amused
himself for a few hours, Rihaan fell asleep thinking there might just be a
solution to all his problems.
