"An engaging, relatable, and rewarding read." -Sarah Hogle, author of You Deserve Each OtherA bride-to-be convinced she's cursed in romance finds her luck changing-at exactly the wrong time. Maya Mirza is so convinced she's unlucky in love that she's come up with a list of laws to explain it. Most importantly…Maya's Law #1: Anything that can go wrong will go wrong. But that's about to change. Maya's headed to Pakistan for an arranged marriage with a handsome, successful doctor who ticks all the right boxes. First comes marriage, then comes love-she's sure of it. Except…Law #4: When you think you're lucky, think again. From the start, Maya's journey is riddled with disaster, and the cynical lawyer seated next to her on the plane isn't helping. When a storm leaves them stranded in Switzerland, she and Sarfaraz become unlikely travel companions through bus breakdowns and missed connections.Law #6: Trips are never smooth sailing. And before long, Maya's wondering whether she's just experienced the ultimate in misfortune-finally meeting the right man a few days before she marries someone else. And Maya might just be the worst person to keep a secret.Law #18: If you're overtired, you'll always spill your guts. But maybe, if she's willing to bend some laws, this detour could take her somewhere totally-and wonderfully-unexpected.

A love story about the systems we put in place to protect ourselves and how they fall apart.   Maya doesn't believe that love and romance can happen for her, so an arranged marriage with a college friend seems like a safe bet. But when the plane is forced to make an emergency landing in Switzerland, she's forced on an adventure with the grumpy but handsome stranger from the plane. Everything that can go wrong, continues to go wrong, but maybe this time it’s not so bad because she has someone by her side... 'Just as sweet as the romance that blossoms between Maya and Sarfaraz is the satisfaction of watching Maya learn to prioritize her own desires. Figuring out what she really wants in life is tricky enough; throw in familial expectations, a possible curse, and the right man at the wrong time, and you’ve got a delicious recipe for an engaging, relatable, and rewarding read' Sarah Hogle, author of You Deserve Each Other
