In What to Expect When You Weren’t Expecting, the author Manu Chobe delivers a sparkling, emotionally charged romantic comedy that asks: What happens when the fixer needs fixing?
Jaanvi Ramakant Sahai has built her career—and her life—on control, composure, and crisis management. But one impulsive relationship with her charismatic, still-married boss threatens to blow it all apart.
Over one unforgettable weekend in Goa, amid meddling relatives, marital espionage, and enough family drama to fuel a ten-season TV series, Jaanvi will be forced to confront the truth about love, loyalty, and the limits of her patience.
Funny, fast, and fearlessly honest, What to Expect When You Weren’t Expecting is a rollercoaster for anyone who has ever found themselves in over their head—and wondered if they should sink or swim.
