- Summary:
- "In Chicago, Zaynab is a thirty-something American-Pakistani lawyer who lives with and cares for her recently widowed, TV-obsessed mothe. Alma is a free-spirited Mexican-American bookshop owner. After meeting in a bar, the two quickly fall into bed with each other and embark on a romance ... but problems aren't far behind. Zaynab's traditional mother still expects her daughter to marry a man, while Alma finds herself reluctant to get involved with the closeted Zaynab, leaving them at odds despite their strong attraction for each other. And then there's Zaynab's latest interest: training in Lucha-style wrestling with a former pro grappler."--Container
