Title: Incense and Sensibility
Author: Sonali Dev
Genre: Romance, Adaptation
Loosely based on Jane Austen's Sense and Sensibility, this charming novel focuses on the love that blooms between Yash Raje and India Dashwood. A gubernatorial candidate in California, Yash survives an assassination attempt that put his bodyguard into a coma. Yoga teacher and stress management coach India helps Yash deal with the emotional ramifications of the incident, even as she fights her feelings for him. Meanwhile, India's sister, China, gets a love story of her own with a meet-cute that involves a misguided tackle to the ground. I especially enjoyed how the author infused her story with yogic wisdom. A winning summertime read!
