Book Review # 147 Saved by Love : Shilpa Suraj


Blurb:

They meet under impossible circumstances. She is kidnapped by terrorists blackmailing her father, a Supreme Court Judge. He leads the team sent to rescue her. Trekking to safety through Ladakh...they are in danger of falling in love. But, Lt. Col. Arjun Rathore knows that Naina Ahuja, engaged to politicsā€™ rising star, is not meant for him. Forever changed by her trauma, Naina walks out on her controlling family and forges a new life. And then, she meets Arjun again. But this time, he is engaged to someone else. Can they save their love or is too late?

My Take:

Some authors define pain beautifully. The pain of love,longing and loving someone in spite of being one sided. This is one such story. I loved the way the story and the characters handle their emotions.

Naina comes from a affluent family which is dominated by her ruthless father for whom its always about himself. After being kidnapped by the terrorists and being rescued by Lt Col Arjun she starts her journey back home only to spend time with Arjun and fall in love with him.

Arjun rescues her from the terrorists and escorts her back along with his team and gets to know her in the process. She's soon to be engaged and married, a fact that makes Arjun distance himself inspite of falling for her. Assuming that the spoil girl she is who would toe the line as per her parents wish he keeps his love to himself.

Cut to few years later when they meet again, this time Arjun getting engaged and she is the one arranging as she works in the hotel booked for the occasion. Surprised that he still has feelings for her and shocked that she has walked out on her family and working to support herself ,they both come face to face with each other.

Will Arjun be able to accept his feelings and propose her? Will Naina be able to get her love back or Will Arjun honor his parents wish? Read the book to find out.

Love forms the crux of the story alongside the pain they both go through. The narration is simple and crisp.

I would rate this 4.5/5 .
