NATIONAL BESTSELLER • “This heartwarming and sexy novel is a beautiful, sometimes angsty examination of how a love story can be rekindled when one least expects it.”—Ali Hazelwood, The New York Times Book Review (Best Spicy Romance Novels)

“The most amazing rollercoaster of big feels and humor and heart.”—Hannah Bonam-Young, author of Out on a Limb

She needs a divorce from her husband—but a hurricane threatens to dredge up their stormy past in this second chance romance from the author of Say You’ll Be Mine.

It's been years since Meena separated from her husband, Nikhil . . . years since they first laid eyes on each other in their home state of Texas, years since they spontaneously wed in Las Vegas and she felt true happiness. Now a high-powered lawyer on Capitol Hill and ready to move on (at least, she thinks so) with another successful lawyer, Shake, Meena has returned to Texas. This time, finally to obtain a divorce.

But there’s one thing Meena didn’t account for: a hurricane forming in the Gulf, veering right toward them and giving them no choice but to hunker down in the home they had built together. Suddenly, she finds herself trapped amid gale-force winds and pelting rain with the man she once loved.

As they spend more time together, Meena begins to remember everything that drew her to Nikhil: his small-town charm, his thoughtful nature . . . his absurdly good looks. But being with Shake makes sense to her. He’s steady, ambitious, and wants exactly what she wants. So she’ll stick to her plan, come hell or high water. But will her windswept heart make the right choice, once the eye passes over and the storm settles?

With sharp observations about second chances at love, ambition and Indian American identity, and with characters who share an undeniable chemistry, Flirting with Disaster is a modern romance with the sensibility of a classic.

Reviews for Flirting With Disaster: A Novel

“Naina Kumar is quickly becoming a favorite author of mine. Her books are brilliant, witty, sexy, and so damn good. Flirting with Disaster was the most amazing roller-coaster ride of big feels, humor, and heart.”—Hannah Bonam-Young, bestselling author of Out on A Limb “There is a rare warm and vulnerable magic to Naina Kumar’s writing. The connection between Nikhil and Meena is as tender as it is sizzling with chemistry. I felt like I was in the hurricane with them, rooting hard for the storm (and the book) not to end. Achingly sweet and deeply satisfying, this second-chance romance will linger in your heart long after you turn the last page.”—Sonali Dev, USA Today bestselling author of The Vibrant Years
