April and Her Friends Kathryn M Burke

Eighteen-year-old April Waters was having the time of her life in Mexico, but she had a scare when she suffered an accident in a hotel swimming pool. She had to be rescued by a strong, handsome Indian-American, Kumar Mehrotra, and she engaged in an intensely intimate relationship almost at once. But so did April's stepmother, Carolyn, who was still grieving from her husband Jeremy's abandonment of her three years earlier. And April's best friend, Melody Meador, soon joins in the fun, finding Kumar the perfect man to relieve her of her virginity. When others are added to the mix-including Rohit Banerjee, another Indian-American whom Melody falls in love with in college, and even Jeremy himself, who returns as a prodigal son-April and the others find that there is more than enough love to go around. This novel, full of steamy passion but also tender affection, shows how the human heart has an almost infinite capacity for physical and spiritual affection.
