Abstract
Naila's conservative immigrant parents have always said the same thing: she may choose what to study, how to wear her hair, and what to be when she grows up -- but they will choose her husband. Following their cultural tradition, they will plan an arranged marriage for her. And until then, dating -- or even friendship with a boy -- is forbidden. When Naila breaks their rule by falling in love with Saif, her parents are livid. Convinced she has forgotten who she truly is, they travel to Pakistan to visit relatives and explore their roots. But Naila's vacation turns into a nightmare when she learns that plans have changed -- her parents have found her a husband and they want her to marry him ..
