My Secret Boyfriend (opens the original)
Read excerpt
I have a secret boyfriend. Not in the way you think. I met all of his friends and the family that mattered. My friends know him and met him many times, my colleagues know about him, and even my parents know about him (which should be another story in itself…).My wider family don’t know about him, though. Nor do my family friends. The reasons vary, mainly coming from my parents, but partly coming from myself. He’s a white man, I’m an Indian woman. I’ll let you fill in the gaps yourselves.<div cla
