 Leyla Thank you so very much for replying. HUGE fan of your bollywood affair series. As a first gen indian in the U.S., they make me so happy and I can relate so easily. I've actually never heard of anyone using shortened indian names, how funny! But, I'd have to say, my favorite indian names include:
girls: Kareena, Samaya, Ishana, Vyani, Prachi, Asin
boys: Viaan, Aahyn, Aryaan, Dhillan, Harshad

One more thing: will there be any more books coming out soon similar to bollywood bride/affair? Affair was the best romantic contemporary Indian-American I've ever read. Cheers and best wishes for writing.

Leyla

Sonali Did you read A CHANGE OF HEART? A DISTANT HEART comes out in December 2017 and I think it's similar to Bride/Affair. And thank you so much! Also, I love all those names.

 Leyla Hi! Thanks again for replying, I feel so special :) I did read A Change of Heart (a bit not realistic for me, and I like the books set in America), but Bollywood Affair, was the best so far. I absolutely loved it. I own the book! sending wishes and loads of fan love. Leyla
