The novel ticks all the boxes of a great romance novel (it’s loosely based on Jane Austen’s Persuasion, so no surprise there), but about a third of the way into the novel we begin to get passages from the point of view of Ashna’s estranged mother, and start to slowly unravel the generations of pain and secrets the family brought with them as they emigrated from India.
Recipe for Persuasion by Sonali Dev ( paperback, ebook, audiobook download) starts off seeming like a lighthearted romance novel, and becomes so much more.Ĭhef Ashna Raje joins a “cooking with celebrities” reality show to try and save her late father's struggling restaurant, and ends up paired with an international soccer star.
