Jaanavi is the star of Bollywood. Despite being a raging success in her professional life, she has not had much luck in her love life. Ritesh is a billionaire businessman who has spent most of his life abroad. When their paths cross at the racecourse on Derby day, the attraction is instant and mutual. Will it lead to something more for both of them?
What I liked about the book:
-> The growth of Jaanavi and Ritesh’s relationship was good despite the book’s short length.
-> It is a great read for people who love romantic stories with a little twist.
-> It breaks a lot of stereotypes about female actors through the positive portrayal of Jaanavi and her love life.
-> It gives a peek into the lives of page 3 celebs who are constantly scrutinized. It talks about toxic relationships that we assume so much about. It also talks about family support and how this plays an important role when a person breaks down. So, even if it’s a love story, you are in for some deep meaningful themes as well.
What I did not like about the book:
-> Jaanavi’s character gave an impression of being fragile.
