Sonali Dev wrote Recipe For Persuasion which is a novel and a loose retelling of Jane Austen's Persuasion. In this story Ashna is a 30 year old restaurant owner in San Francisco. Her father owned the restaurant that served Indian food. He died when she was 18 and she is trying to honor his legacy even though he was one of the worst parents I have ever read about. The restaurant is not doing well so that is why she signs up for a reality show Cooking With Celebrities. She hopes to win the biggest prize and have the money to fix the restaurant. The celebrity she is paired with is a famous soccer player and also the guy she dated in high school. Their chemistry is noted by fans of the show. This was a silly romantic book that wasn't terrible but also wasn't great.
