Sheila Kumar - author of No Strings Attached and Our Start-up Affair."Only You is my favourite book in the Destination Weddings series! It is loaded with warmth, humour, angst and Andaleeb’s special brand of toe-tingling romance." Apeksha Rao - Author, Along Came a Spyder"Andaleeb Wajid's 'Only You' - the 5th in the Destination Wedding Series is everything a love story should be - endearing, joyous, very real and honest to the core. I love the fact that she has created characters and situations that are very down-to-earth and extremely relatable, with their own quirks and foibles. The protagonist of the story, Ghazal, is one of the strongest female characters Andaleeb has created - not letting a physical disability quell her quest for true love, standing up for herself and her loved ones when the situation demands and loving with all her heart and soul. This one will warm the cockles of your heart and make you believe that love, truly, will find a way!" Namrata Bhagtani - Editor, Momspresso less
