'Exquisitely written with big heartedness, intelligence and passion' Ruth Jones
Yasmin Ghorami has a lot to be grateful for: a loving family, a fledgling career in medicine and a charming, handsome fiancé, fellow doctor Joe Sangster. But now the moment she has been dreading has arrived: it is time for her family to meet Joe's firebrand feminist mother.
As the two families are drawn closer together, long-held secrets, lies and betrayals unravel on both sides - and Yasmin is forced to ask herself what she really wants in a relationship and what a 'love marriage' actually means ...
