Lonely Dove

What Early Readers Are Saying About my Upcoming Novel: Lonely Dove

“It is the story of a woman who stays true to her quest for her soulmate. A realistic story that any person who grew up in a multicultural environment will identify with. The story follows Anji as she grapples with her Indian and Colombian background in a modern-day setting. Not a fairy-tale but a riveting spiritual journey that engages the reader until the last page.” Aleena Pitisant

“Lonely Dove took me on an emotional journey that follows Anji’s compelling and devastatingly personal story while inspiring me to dig deeper into my own beliefs about the magic and power of the universe. I felt connected to Anji’s plight and with every chapter, my heart grew closer to her spirit. This story will speak to your heart and your soul.” Amy Kantorczyk

“Powerful, spiritual, and full of insight. It was so easy to emotionally connect with Anjali’s journey and to cheer her on in her quest for love and self-knowledge. Such a heartwarming read!” Bilquis Ahmed

“Anji’s journey of self-discovery is filled with pain and heartache, but she emerges strong and whole in the end. Lonely Dove reminds us to love ourselves for who we are and not who others want us to be.” Daanish Khan

“I loved it. It felt really good to read something with a happy ending during these times, despite all the suspicion. There is hope for happy endings. The book is very realistic yet entertaining, which one may relate to. It helps us look with optimism into the future.” Elif Egeli

“Lonely Dove is a delightful page turner that uniquely captures life in New York City and the realistic challenges of finding a partner amid blended cultures. Like Eat, Pray, Love, with slightly less traveling, this is a journey of love and not just the romantic kind. It pulled at my heartstrings and often made me hungry—both for more of the story and for some authentic Indian and Colombian food!” Gin Carter

“The book takes us on a spiritual journey in search of a soulmate who surely exists but is ever so elusive. On the way, we encounter a colorfully descriptive universe of fragrant Indian spices, Colombian telenovelas, a Romani with no eyelashes, ancient and timeless “twin flames,” and the resolute determination of a woman to make sense of it all.” Qais Sultan

“Lonely Dove was unexpected in so many ways. Part love story, part mystery, and part a tale of self-discovery, it reeled me in and kept me hooked till the end. Throw in a dash of culture and an element of the supernatural, and we’ve got the perfect recipe for a love story that’s as timeless as it is entertaining.” Stephanie Caunter
