What I liked:
Sundari's signature style of Indian values, characters who are believable/relate able, happily-ever after endings, feel good stories, morals. The chemistry is buzzing full on ;) The story plot is gripping. It is well fleshed out. Apart from the hero heroine, Shikha, Abhimanyu, Samrat, Ram, Lakshman, Jeetu, Dadaji are all real like. Hats off too Shikha's tenacity & her guts. Sundari has used some real hard words in this one, unlike Sundari :D

What I want more:
More to the ending, more details, more chemistry ;) In real life if there were hunks for boss who were real marriage material then there would be so many love stories, but we will suffice with Sundari's novels for the time being :D

Kudos Sundari for another beautiful romance novel. Keep up the good work. Looking forward to more novels from you.
