Nina is confused. She's confused about her career, her love life, her faith and her future. Pretty everyday average concerns but then not everyone pretends that their ex-boyfriend is a girl, or that they are a Japanese male artist called Foruki.

A disastrous day that begins with a spiritual guru who turns out not to have so much healing hands as wandering ones and ends with Nina finding her boyfriend in bed with someone else, with a quick detour via losing your job alley leads Nina to have serious questions about the choices she has made in life.

In the space of a few hours, her life has reached a crossroads. Nina has always yearned to be an artist, but her parents want a stable career - and a stable relationship - for their daughter. So Nina puts on a suit every day and pretends to go to work. But she's really escaping to a studio where she paints for the first time in years.

When her work is spotted by a top gallery owner, she panics and pretends to be the artist's agent instead. Fabricating a name, identity, an entire life for her 'client', she propels him towards ever-increasing international acclaim.

Meanwhile at home, she's agreed to an arranged marriage to keep the peace, although she soon finds her heart pulled in an unexpected direction. Having become adept in the art of deception, Nina must try and keep her two worlds apart.

But as they threaten to spectacularly collide and cause untold amounts of damage, she must question who she really is once and for all.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR

Preethi Nair is an author who writes about, among other issues, Identity. This is probably due to the fact that when Preethi self-published her first novel she had to masquerade as the publicist Preu Menon in order to promote the book. Her success as Preu and the book led to her discovery and her intriguing true story which rivals any plotline, was unfurled.

Also by Preethi Nair 'Gypsy Masala' and '100 Shades of White'
