Leave and Come Back is a phenomenal debut. Prepare to fall in love with the entire cast of characters while Lakshmi expertly weaves humor, heart, and tenderness onto every page.” —Hannah Bonam-Young, New York Times bestselling author of People Watching

You’re invited to the most romantic, chaotic wedding of the season

For the first time, Simran Gopal is living out her own swoon-worthy romance to rival the beloved Bollywood films of her childhood... until she receives her cousin’s wedding invitation. Now, Simran finds herself returning to the family home she’s been avoiding for the last seven years to take part in a two-week long Indian wedding.

Family drama is already at a high when Leo Bridgers, Simrans new boyfriend, accidentally crashes the engagement party. To avoid full crisis mode and provoking the ire of Veena perima, Simran’s aunt and judgmental family matriarch, the cousins need to rally. Commence: Operation DDLJ.

Following the lead of their favorite Bollywood movie, they need to trick Veena into adoring Leo. In a mess of misdirection and hijinks, Leo must prove himself to be the most charming, helpful wedding guest imaginable, and he certainly can’t give away that he’s ever met—let alone is currently in love with—Simran.

For Simran, being back with her family also brings up memories of the difficult years after her parents died. As old grievances and new secrets arise—with nosy aunties always watching—Simran must find a way to heal her wounds or risk losing her happy ending with Leo and her family.

Charming, tender, and hilarious, Leave and Come Back asks what it means to open up to love, what makes a family, and how to honor the past while embracing the present.

批評家のレビュー

Praise for Leave and Come Back
“Debut novelist Lakshmi masterfully meets the challenge of such big topics... and readers will embrace the entire flawed but beloved family with ease. With memories, Bollywood references, love, and loss, all conveyed in vibrant detail, Lakshmi's tale is an excellent choice for book discussions and readers who will enjoy a culturally vibrant 'rom-com-fam-dram.”'—Booklist

“[Leave and Come Back] rise[s] to the level of Austen’s devastatingly accurate reads on how tightly connected communities celebrate, argue, mourn, and forgive. A warm, witty comedy of manners in which family members matter as much as the marriage plot.”Kirkus

Leave and Come Back is a delightful romance that expertly blends humor and heart. Every relationship pulses with warmth. The light from the Iyer house pops off the page and envelops the reader. It’s fantastic to see a South Indian family so lovingly portrayed.”Lilly's Library

“Fun. . . . Lakshmi sets up a lot of meaty character conflicts and disparate desires among her large cast.”Publishers Weekly

Leave and Come Back is a gorgeous debut - wildly romantic, wise, and deeply redemptive. This was a five-star read for me.”—Annabel Monaghan, New York Times bestselling author of It’s A Love Story

Leave and Come Back is a phenomenal debut. I cannot remember the last time I smiled this much while reading! Prepare to fall in love with the entire cast of characters while Lakshmi expertly weaves humour, heart, and tenderness onto every page.” —Hannah Bonam-Young, New York Times bestselling author of People Watching

"Hilarious and deeply romantic, Leave and Come Back is a gorgeous exploration of grief, culture, and community.

"Leave & Come Back is the kind of book that stays with you forever. Lavanya Lakshmi has created characters who feel so real it's like you can hear their hearts beating through the page. A deeply moving, supremely witty, simply phenomenal debut."—Jessica Joyce, USA Today bestselling author of You, with a View and The Ex Vows

"Leave and Come Back is a sweet, funny, and refreshing debut. Lavanya Lakshmi has written a beautiful story celebrating South Asian culture, family, and what it means to be in love."— Joss Richard, international bestselling author of It's Different This Time
