The Serpent's Secret

Kiran has always been a misfit, and her parents seem clueless.  They just keep telling her she's an Indian princess and to ignore her tormentors.  She puts up with their eccentricities until her twelfth birthday when she comes home to find her home destroyed and her parents missing.  The only thing she finds is a birthday card with a message to trust the princes.

Two cute guys show up with winged horses followed a hideous smelly demon.  It turns out Kiran really is a princess!  She's the daughter of the moon goddess and the serpent king.  Her adoptive parents took her into the human world to keep her safe, but now the protective spell has worn off, and Kiran and the princes are running out of time to save her parents and protect the world from a demon.  Plus, her bio dad is a giant snake demon who wants to kill her and her friends.

Sayantani Dasgupta's series opener is perfect for Rick Riordan fans.  It's a good fantasy adventure with a funny and believable heroine.
