After a challenging freshman year, Rani can't help but feel like she's playing catch up. To that end, she's crafted a packed summer to get back on track: a dream internship, adventures with her hometown best friend, and regular driving lessons so that she can finally lose her passenger princess reputation - even if it means learning from her aggravating family friend (and childhood crush), Kush Khanna. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eKush and Rani grew up together, but they couldn't be less alike. Within their close-knit Desi community - a Jane Austen style cast of ridiculous, meddlesome families - Kush is the beloved model son; Rani is more the black sheep. Kush is pre-med; Rani plans to teach elementary school. Kush is cool and collected, bordering on reticent; Rani couldn't keep her mouth shut if her life depended on it. So when their mothers first force the pair to drive together, the arrangement feels like a recipe for disaster. As the lessons progress, however, Rani discovers there's more to the boy she's known her whole life than meets the eye. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eIn Arushi Avachat's \u003ci\u003eRani Deshpande Takes the Wheel\u003c\/i\u003e, Rani must learn to course-correct, no matter how bumpy or windy the road - and even if it includes a detour right into love.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/txcorrectionsbookstore.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=AUTH-15976605\"\u003eArushi Avachat\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Wednesday Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/19\/2026\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 320\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.60lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.25h x 5.38w x 1.00d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781250895905\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1250895901\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBISAC Categories:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/txcorrectionsbookstore.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=CAT-YAF\"\u003eYoung Adult Fiction\u003c\/a\u003e | \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/txcorrectionsbookstore.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=BISAC-YAF052070\"\u003eRomance | Multicultural \u0026amp; Interracial\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/txcorrectionsbookstore.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=CAT-YAF\"\u003eYoung Adult Fiction\u003c\/a\u003e | \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/txcorrectionsbookstore.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=BISAC-YAF046130\"\u003eAsian American \u0026amp; Pacific Islander\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/txcorrectionsbookstore.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=CAT-YAF\"\u003eYoung Adult Fiction\u003c\/a\u003e | \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/txcorrectionsbookstore.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=BISAC-YAF052060\"\u003eRomance | Romantic Comedy\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eARUSHI AVACHAT is a writer from the Bay Area.
