Sonali Dev writes romance and contemporary fiction centered on Indian and Indian-American characters. She was born in Mumbai and now lives in the Midwest, and her books draw on the culture and family dynamics of both worlds. Her debut novel, A Bollywood Affair (2014), introduced readers to her style: warm, emotionally honest romances that take Indian traditions and modern life seriously.
The Rajes series (2019-2022) brought her wider attention by reimagining Jane Austen classics with an Indian-American family. Pride, Prejudice, and Other Flavors was selected for the Reese Witherspoon Book Club. Her more recent standalone novels, including The Vibrant Years and Lies and Other Love Languages, explore mother-daughter relationships and identity across generations.
