Mr. Imperfect Series
by
Aditi Chopra
My Review
While the book has three novellas that are interconnected, they can still be read separately as standalone stories.
House of Love
Nikki is a strong person who has her own business. Her younger brother would rather learn the business through her than their father who is a male chauvinist, who refuses to acknowledge his daughter’s success. Nikki falls for Karan, who is a client. Will Nikki find happiness with him?
Arranged Marriage
The story is exactly what the title claims it to be. Ishan is from Dallas. Though he argues when his parents try to find a suitable bride for him when he goes to India, he falls for Sonali when he meets her. They get married and Sonali moves in with her husband. There’s a problem though. She loves to cook and is not career minded. But how will she spend time in the USA with all her friends and relatives so far away. It’s a coming of age story; Sonali’s journey of self-discovery.
Love Tango
Maya is the boldest of the three women. She falls for restaurateur Tahir Ali. But is he using her? This is the best story of the three.
My Perception
I loved the cover of the book. The language is good though a stronger hand at proofing would have made it a better read.
All the stories have interesting premises and are typically Indian. The author has highlighted the lives of NRIs in the USA through her stories. I only wish the stories flowed by themselves instead of appearing as if the author is narrating it to the reader. That took away from the reading experience.
Otherwise, the stories themselves, the settings and twists – all make for a lovely read.
Disclaimer: I received a kindle copy of this book from the author via The Book Club in return for my honest review.
The Blurb
Three intriguing women, Three Imperfect men, Three fascinating stories!
