Publisher's summary
Once upon a time, there was a princess called Hansa Raj who just didn't fit in, not in her family or the small wine-country town of Everwood.
Overshadowed by her radiant sister Naina, an ex-supermodel turned media empress, Hansa harbors dreams, as fragrant and deep as a Pinot Noir, of crafting her signature wine with an Indian touch, paying homage to her heritage.
When she meets the Wine Prince Orion Callahan, it's love at first sight for Hansa. Orion doesn't even notice her. Most people don't, and Hansa doesn't seek attention because she has an ugly secret. Hansa has dyslexia, which makes her everyday life a struggle that she bears in silence because she's afraid that if people find out, they'll realize that she is as dumb as she is plain.
Can you blame her when her own family thinks she's less intelligent, less pretty… just less than her sister, her cousins, and everyone else they compare her to?
Orion, who unsuccessfully tried to woo the brilliant Naina in high school, has now risen as a prominent winemaker, and Naina is finally giving him the time of day. But as he gets to know Naina, he also learns more about Hansa, who is now managing his wine-tasting room at Callahan Vineyards. Instead of falling in love with Naina, whom he's always wanted, he finds that he's instead, albeit reluctantly, captivated by the unexpected strength and genuine passion of Hansa, the duckling that no one notices.
Against the backdrop of frost-kissed vineyards and with just a little magic, Orion learns that some ducklings are perfect as they are, and Hansa discovers that she doesn't need to become a swan to be loved.
I am Seraphina Vine, and I am the fairy godmother of Everwood. I bring lost souls and broken hearts together. Now, I wave my magic wand and bring you the story of an ugly duckling and a prince blinded by surface beauty. Because sometimes love is ugly.
An Ugly Love aims to challenge The Ugly Duckling's message that acceptance comes only with transformation, illustrating that not every duckling needs to become a swan. This story is about embracing the often messy and imperfect nature of being human and celebrating love as the force that truly moves our world.

My family's roots run deep, and my responsibilities are clear. My family and Rhodes Hotels, my family business. As a father first, I've always put my daughter above everything, living in a carefully maintained world close to my ex-wife, ensuring peace. I never expected to fall in love again and find the kind of passion I had with Aurora. I thought it would be easy, but when I introduced her to my daughter, it shattered the delicate balance of my life, forcing me to make regrettable choices that hurt the only woman I ever loved.

When the man she's always been in love with starts dating one of her friends, artist Serenity Adesina creates a to-do list that will help her get over him once and for all. The first item on that list? Losing her virginity to Archer Harrison, her older brother's billionaire best friend…and her boss. He's the perfect choice—alluring, caring, and entirely emotionally unavailable.

Emmett Lasker is impossible to work for. He might be model handsome and stupidly wealthy, but he also has it out for me. He’s given me more last-minute and weekend requests than anyone else, ruining any plans I make. I should quit. And I will. Just as soon as I hit my two-year anniversary and earn out my signing bonus. But after a particularly awful day at work, a breakup (via text!), and my computer crashing, I’ve had enough! So at 11:59 Friday night, I barge into Emmett’s office to tell him what I really think of him. Only, that’s not what happens. AT ALL.

Story
In the not-too-distant future, a 21-member crew launches from Earth. Their mission: to establish a temporary colony on Mars. Little do they know that colony will become permanent–and the last stand of the human race. Because, without warning, every single person left on Earth simply...vanishes. Now, a thousand years later, the resources needed to sustain life are running out, and the very existence of the Mars colony is threatened. Humankind has only one option–to return to its home planet.

Excellent narration.
First, the narration was very good, especially the voice that did the Indian parents and aunties and uncles. I enjoyed large chunks of the story and was totally invested in the heroine's journey. I felt, though, that the male character was a jerk for no real reason other than that he possesses a middle school bully mentality. In my eyes, he became weak and unlikeable. I didn't feel that his sudden turn around was believable either. If the heroine wasn't such a great character and the narration so well done, I would have rated this poorly for those reasons. Also, the wine metaphors and talk was too much and began to annoy me. Still, I enjoyed a large portion of the story, and the author did a good job with the family story.

Great story with a tiny hiccup
It was a great story and, generally, very well preformed but there were a couple of mispronounced words that took me out of it.
The fact that the male narrator couldn’t pronounce syrah correctly when the character was a wine maker drove me crazy. It’s not a see-ra but a sa-ra. I know that’s nip picky but wine was a big part of the book and every time I heard him say see-ra I cringed.
