Fiercely independent, strong-willed-she?s awoman you can?t take for a ride, which is how she has turned a homegrownpickle-making business into a successful women?s co-operative.When she encounters the newcomer Vikas Joshi, who has recently acquiredan apricot orchard, sparks being to fly as a series of mishaps bring themtogether. It doesn?t look like this shy, gentle widower and the feisty pickleproducer are made for each other. But destiny deems otherwise, with a littlehelp from the villagers-and a mysterious jar of apricot jam.Played out against the backdrop of the Kumaon Hills, across woodedmountains and apricot orchards, For the Love of Apricots is a quietly romantic,humorous story about a seemingly headstrong yet vulnerable heroine anda lonely man who realize, before it?s too late, that love deserves a secondchance.Warm and light-hearted, yet sensitive and with an understanding of humannature at its core, this is a book to celebrate love in all its unpredictable ways.
