Synopsis

THE AWARD-WINNING AUTHOR OF THE HILARIOUS ROMANTIC COMEDY SOFIA KHAN IS NOT OBLIGED

'The perfect balance of romance and humour' INDEPENDENT

'Fun, fresh and funny' MHAIRI MCFARLANE

'A smart romcom . . . Huge fun' JENNY COLGAN

Sofia Khan is going about everything the wrong way. At least, that's what her mother, Mehnaz, thinks. Sofia is twice-divorced, homeless and - worst of all - refusing to give up on a fostered baby girl. Sofia's just not behaving like a normal woman should.

Sofia doesn't see it like that. She's planning to adopt Millie, and she's sure it'll be worth it. (Even if it means she and Millie have to stay at Mehnaz's place for a while.) And as Sofia finally begins to live the life she's chosen, she finds both romance and happiness start to blossom.

But then someone comes back from the past - and not even Sofia's own past. Suddenly, she's faced with a choice. To do what's best for those she loves, Sofia might have to break her own heart. And she might find herself needing the last person she expected . . .

Rather like a contemporary Barbara Pym [Malik] redraws the boundaries of what stories about British Muslims might look like. . . it touches our capacity for human sympathy and connection in important ways THE TIMES

Wise and warm-hearted SUNDAY TIMES

Feisty, funny and relatable, it's the feminist comedy you've been waiting for ELLE

A courageous, revealing, fiendishly funny and important book. Genuinely ground-breaking Vaseem Khan

I adored this. A gorgeous, funny, smart uplifting story about seeking unity during times of division. Wish I could prescribe it to the country Daisy Buchanan
