Playing the traditional daughter-in-law role, Priya is expected to do all the housework and cooking, and - because she doesn't immediately get pregnant - find a job as well." "But the glamorous job she lands isn't at all what her in-laws had in mind. Priya soon finds herself leading a secret double life that she must hide from her disapproving in-laws." "All the while, she's growing into a marriage to a man whose loyalty is decidedly torn between his parents and his bride - hardly surprising, given that he met his wife only a week before their wedding. The question is, can this fragile new love survive the pull between tradition and ambition?"--BOOK JACKET.
