Review
Title and cover: The title is somewhat attractive, along with the cover. The colours chosen for the cover is fully appropriate and makes it more tempting. Also the title satisfies the story.
Characters: The protagonists Prisha, Rajesh and Akshay were quite indulging. Through Akshay, the author showed one of the serious problems faced by Indian women. Successful man wants their spouse to be housewife. Coming to Prisha, I couldn’t understand her ideology. Initially, she was unsure about her marriage with Akshay. And when Akshay dumped, she acted like victim. Rajesh was altogether the strongest character for me.
Story: The story was more or less indulging, though it went quite cheesy and too filmy sometimes. Rajesh’s dedication towards his work made the story part a bit stronger. But the end was probably predictable. I didn’t like the way of writing, much. As, the liking of Rajesh towards Prisha was quite sudden. If the story would have been written in both Prisha’s and Rajesh’s viewpoint, it would be more enjoyable.
Recommendations: If you want to have a light and quick read of romance, Seductive Affair is a book you can choose.
