I began writing this lovely story over ten years ago. Since then, Radha has been a part of my life, and she has allowed me to tell her story. On an idyllic afternoon in the breathtakingly beautiful Kovalam beach, two young medical students fall in love among the waving coconut palms, the exciting rhythm of ocean waves, and hot sun. Radha is a young girl raised in the strictest Hindu traditions. Danny is a Christian, albeit a non-practicing one. In this classical story, we follow their lives intertwine and separate, their dreams blossom and wither, and as pawns in the game of fate, they land back on the same shores of the ocean to experience their ultimate destiny. Radha’s unique story evokes in the reader, tender smiles, laughter and tears, anger and indignation, but above all, hope, despite ups and downs in Radha’s life. As we journey along, we experience the exotic, wonderful and extraordinary lives of this duo, set in the subtropical paradise of Kerala, South India and in the United States of America, as only a story teller who has lived in both worlds can tell.
