Two best friends rewrite the rules of friendship, love and family...and change everything they thought they knew about motherhood
Paris Kahn Fraser has it all—a successful career as an assistant district attorney, a beautiful home in New York City, and a handsome, passionate husband who chose her over having a family of his own. Neal's dream of fatherhood might have been the only shadow in their otherwise happy life...until Paris's best friend comes to town.
Naira Dalmia never thought she'd be a widow before thirty. Left reeling in the aftermath of her husband's death, all she wants is to start over. She trades Mumbai for New York, and rigid family expectations for the open acceptance of her best friend. After all, there isn't anything she and Paris wouldn't do for each other.
But when Paris asks Naira to be their surrogate, they'll learn if their friendship has what it takes to defy society, their families and even their own biology as these two best friends embark on a journey that will change their lives forever.
Wry, daring and utterly absorbing, The Object of Your Affections is an unforgettable story about two women challenging the norms...and the magic that happens when we choose to forge our own path.

      Narrators Simone Lewis and Shiromi Arserio work together in this story of friendship, surrogacy, and cultural expectations. Lewis is the arch, sophisticated voice of Paris Fraser, a professional Indian woman who cannot produce a child for her demanding family. Arserio is the timid yet firm Naira, who leaves behind her past in India, hoping for a different life in New York after the unexpected death of her husband. The two narrators easily pass chapters back and forth, capturing two very different points of view to create an upbeat story of childhood friends coming back together in midlife. Will Naira be Paris's surrogate and the answer to all her problems? Listeners will be eager to find out. M.R. © AudioFile 2019, Portland, Maine
