The Imperfect Bride | Rubina Ramesh | Book Review

The Book Blurb

Rating - 4 /5 ★★★★

My Review

I had previously read her book, so I grabbed this one right away and was astounded by her development in writing style. The Imperfect Bride is a short book with intense and humorous banter, passionate romance, and painful heartbreak.

Ruchika and Kabir were forced to marry each other when both of the persons with whom they engaged married each other. Ruchika wants to live in London, while Kabir resides in the United States. So, in order to achieve her dream, she chose to divorce Kabir. Despite being best friends from childhood and loving each other, they are still fighting because both are not ready to become second choices in their lives.

I can comprehend this one without reading the first book in the series. Ruchika is an enthusiastic and sweet Punjabi girl with a stubborn attitude, whereas Kabir is a gorgeous man who is emotionally reserved. Govind also added to the story's manifestation. Although it is a short book, it masterfully captures every emotion: attraction, separation, romance, heartache, and love. The story flows perfectly, even unpredictably, and the comedy blends easily.

Rubina beautifully described the battles of ego that affect love and marriage. And silence can quickly destroy any relationship. The story is entertaining at a fast pace and is clear and straightforward. There are a few Punjabi words that perfectly mix with the style and characters, making the story appealing and funny at the same time.

The Imperfect Bride is a charming short romantic book with a dash of comedy, drama, and Indian touch of family emotions.
