Book Blurb:
Rihana is a painter who is trying to find inspiration in love. Zara is a businesswoman trying to make a niche for her company in a male-dominated world. Rihana is fire, Zara is ice; Rihana is openly sensual, while Zara is more cautious with her heart—they are opposites that attract. They are different people bound together by their house—‘Cupid’—and their pet golden retriever, Tiger.
As both of them navigate their fulfilling careers and try to leave behind troubled pasts, they find solace in each other. But Tiger’s not the only male in their lives. Rihana finds herself a string of sexy men, while Zara emerges out of her shell and meets an actual prince who sweeps her off her feet. But can these relationships last? And what road will they take when love happens bi the way?
My review:
Wow! Now that is something that I have never read before. This book broke the stereotypes. Many of you might outrage against the storyline and you might sit in the dharnas too. But seriously the storyline is intriguing and at the end you will be left with a question, should this be legalized?
The book cover is really attractive and if you are someone who buy a book looking at its cover then you might end in buying this one too. The story revolves around two female protagonists: Rihana and Zara. They have a strong bond between them, may be they are bff or maybe they are soul sisters or maybe they have a different side to the story. If I disclose everything here, why would you care buying the book? *Winks*
Before commenting on the way of writing let me tell you my likings and disliking about the story.
Zara appears sweet and cute. Rihana appears to be hot. The start isn’t much interesting and you might need to drag yourself until the entry of Shaurya. The story gets interesting after that. I don’t understand the logic behind Rihana falling for every other male she meets. I mean, if she had fallen in love I would have understood the thing but falling for every male only for sex is something I couldn’t digest. Be it with Dr. Saif, the Flight Attendant, Zubair or Major Shergil, all she wanted was some hardcore sex.
The best thing about the book is its end. The author has kept the suspense till the last. Until you reach the last few pages of the book, you just can’t guess how the story will end. The end leaves a serious message to the society. The author has brilliantly written the book and editor has also done a good work to keep the book error free.
Likings: Cover Page, Friendship between Rihana and Zara, Out of box thinking by Author, The plot might not go well with many but still the Author dared to pen down. Admirable!
Disliking: Most of the pages are filled with Booze and Sex.
