Official synopsis Publisher
A hip chick from Newport Beach, California, who’s just turned thirty, discovered she’s the incarnation of the Hindu goddess Kali, and happens to be unemployed and still living with her parents. Saving the world, though, may prove to be a curry-scented breeze compared to dealing with her extended Indian family. In their eyes she isn’t just the black sheep — she’s low-grade mutton.
To make matters worse, despite frequent and therapeutic bouts of shopping and Starbucks, and the mentoring of a Taco Bell-loving, Coca Cola-guzzling swami, Maya has trouble just surviving, thanks to the attentions of a Kali-hating fanatic and a matchmaking aunt hell-bent on finding her a nice Indian boy. Maya has no interest in boys. She wants a man and she may have found one.
He’s tall, dark, and gorgeous … and completely uninterested in her.
In the name of all that’s holy and fashionable … what on Earth is a goddess to do?
