Modern-Day Fairy Tale (Book Review)


Book: The Bodyguard (Kindle edition)

Author: Ruchi Singh

Sold by: Amazon Asia-Pacific Holdings Private Limited

The Bodyguard is a modern-day fairy tale which has a good blend of suspense and romance. The plot though not very unusual is that of a rich and handsome guy falling for a not-so-rich and strong girl. What adds to this simple plot is the suspense that starts building right from the beginning.



Former army personnel Esha Sinha is appointed as bodyguard to the millionaire Vikramaditya Seth Jr.  They are both young and attracted to each other so no brownies for guessing the sizzling chemistry between the two. Seth Jr. needs security to as there is/are assassin(s) putting their soul and heart to kill him. Why? That’s the suspense and you definitely need to swipe the pages on Kindle book to know that.

While the romance element, nothing unusual could be interesting to read, the suspense and thrill that ropes all the characters under scanner.      

The plot has been nicely carved by the author Ruchi Singh and she successfully builds up each character as much as the suspense.  

Overall, The Bodyguard is an interesting read as it captures your interest with a good mix of plot, characters and the flow of the story.

Last but not the least, the cover image of the e-book is quite interesting, it screams for attention, won’t you agree?

My Rating: 4 stars

Of Romance And Suspense (Book Review)

Image Credit Book: The Royal Roommate (Kindle edition) Author: PG Van Life is unpredictable. We plan many things but not everything happens as planned. Infact, most of the times life has surprises in store for us. The key is to play along and play it well. This is what you will find the protagonist -Amy doing in this book. Accepting the twists and turns life throws at her and running along with the stride. This the first book of PG Van that I have had a chance to read, and hence I didn’t have any set expectations.

Interestingly, Sid is a spy and Amy is his suspect. However, from suspe...
