About this ebook
Now in paperback comes this hilarious, smart, and swoon-worthy rom-com about two teens traveling to Dubai for Diwali from the author of My Sister’s Big Fat Indian Wedding
In this hate-to-love romance, Nikki, an aspiring photographer, accompanies her family on a trip to Dubai to celebrate the five days of Diwali in style. It should be the trip of a lifetime, if Yash, the boy next door—with whom Nikki has a rocky history—weren’t on board.
Caught up in the festive spirit, Nikki’s family encourages her to get reacquainted with Yash. Turns out, a lot can change on a 12-hour flight besides just continents. But can betrayals and conflicting ambitions be set aside long enough for the two teens to discover the true meaning of the Festival of Lights?
Perfect for fans of Tokyo Ever After and The Upside of Falling, this exuberant novel captures all the joy of family celebrations along with the heady exhilaration of first love and includes a bonus scene from My Sister’s Big Fat Indian Wedding, another pitch-perfect YA rom-com from Sajni Patel.

This is a joyous, fast-paced novel filled with fun and emotion. The author's strong voice immediately immerses the reader in the story and Nikki's complex feelings about her relationship with Yash. The descriptions of Dubai and the holiday made me feel like I was there. The audiobook narration was entertaining. Thanks, NetGalley, for the ARC I received. This is my honest and voluntary review.
