My Review
Rhea and Saahil are from separate worlds and meet in London. Their first terrible meeting foreshadows a bleak future for them. But their paths crossed again, and now they want to know each other. Saahil despised the notion of commitment and marriage after witnessing his parents' separation, divorce, and bitterness, while Rhea grew up seeing her parents' wonderful marriage, and even after her father's death, her thoughts of her happily ever after never faded. Both had gone through hardships that shaped their outlook on life. When it enters into their relationship, it either breaks or changes the course of their future.
The story moves at a decent pace which helps to keep the reader engaged. Sahil is the most evolved character in the story, and I liked how, at first, he appeared to be the spoiled rich brat enjoying his time apart, but with time, his rigidity, which stemmed from his childhood trauma, began to show, revealing his fears, insecurity, and the admirable person beneath the layers.
Rhea is a breath in the fresh air, so relaxed and taking a risk, never afraid to voice out her thoughts on anything. I adored her mother-daughter bond. Simran and Nandini had a profound impact.
The author fabulously writes the communication impact on the relationship and a healthy relationship despite the child's trauma. And for me, the best part of the novel was when Saahil confronted his parents; it made my eyes moist, and I enjoyed how the author skillfully conveyed the blame game without painting anyone a villain. And the ending is fantastic—they both strive diligently for their happily ever after.
A one-day sweet romance soothing read from a fresh perspective.
