4.3 out of 5 stars 193 ratings

Deepshika feels as free as a bird once she decides to kick her womaniser husband out of her life. The lawyer is confident of bringing up her teenage kids with her father’s help.

Karan isn’t all that upset when his wife dumps him, leaving behind their preteen daughter for him to bring up. But the alimony she claims comes as a rude shock.

Sparks fly when the shocked husband meets the divorced, divorce lawyer. But what will happen when their respective children come face to face? Will they accept their parents’ relationship or rebel against it?

Will the once bitten Deepshika and Karan be lucky in their relationship the second time?

Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

Sundari Venkatraman is an Indie Author who has 68 books to her credit. These books have consistently featured in the Top 100 Bestseller Lists on Amazon India, Amazon USA, Amazon UK, Amazon Canada and Amazon Australia in both romance as well as Asian Drama categories. Her latest hot romances have all been on #1 Bestseller slot in Amazon India for over a month.

These days, the author is independently publishing her novels in paperback format under her banner Flaming Sun, printed and distributed by Notion Press.

Even as a child, Sundari absolutely loved the ‘lived happily ever after’ syndrome and she grew up on a steady diet of fairy tales, Phantom comics and Mandrake comics. It was always about good triumphing over evil and a happy ending after the protagonists surmounted all unexpected obstacles.

Once she entered her teens, Sundari switched her loyalties from fairy tales to Mills & Boon. While she loved reading both of these, she kept visualising what would have happened if there were similar situations happening in India; to local heroes and heroines. And of course, the joy of vanquishing the ubiquitous evil villains! Her imagination soared and she happily ensconced herself in a rosy romantic cocoon for many years.

Then came the writing—a true bolt from the blue! And Sundari Venkatraman has never looked back.

    Everytime there is a new book out by Sundari Venkatraman I religiously get it as soon as it is published and I always make sure that I have the slot open to read it straight away. And there is no doubt that this book is yet another smasher. One starts on the first page and finishes on the last one and there is never a dull moment in the book. I have not enough words to describe her amazing stories but I surely urge you to get this book and discover for yourself the brilliance of this author.

    Loved this book. It’s like a true story. Only wish that kids in real life were as understanding and supportive as these kids.
  • Reviewed in the United States on April 16, 2021
    Sundari draws a family picture. The characters are so real that it's like you have met them in your life. A second chance romance of two adults who carry the baggage of past responsibilities. The protags Deepshika and Karan and sketched so beautifully. With all their flaws, fears, and strengths. Coming to the negative characters, (I should call them humans. Not negative perse) Mahesh and Dhwani, I was amazed the way the author had gone deep into their skin to bring out that anger in me when I read about them. Mahesh is what we call a typical male. Entitled. But the way Deepshika's father handled it - I was in love with the father. (don't smirk, it happens). To be ferociously protective without thinking of the rights and wrong. That's a father to me. Overall, loved the romance, the chemistry is awesome and the story is fast-paced. I would call it 'unputdownable".

    4.0 out of 5 stars Predictable plot but intresting
    Reviewed in India on April 20, 2021
    This is an intresting story of life giving second chances . Two stories have been written about and later on in the book it fits as a perfect jigsaw block when two divorced couple find their way towards happiness .

    Deepshikha is a divorce lawyer and her own marriage seems to fall apart when her husband Mahesh destroys their 17 years of marriage and it ends up in a messy divorce . Karan on the other side stands at the difficult position of divorce when his childhood sweetheart Dhwani decides to leave him suddenly and also asks for alimony . The story begins when divorce stuck karan meets divorce lawyer deepshikha . Read more to find out !

    The book is highly predictable but the plot keeps you sticked to the book . The issue that has been brought up apart from second chances are how a family is effect because of divorce , how the children are affect with no fault of their own . The convincing part of children is what i enjoyed the most . The book is fast paced and you wont even know when it came to an end .
    Would recommend to give this book a try !

    I loved the cover and the story. The characters are realistic, and so are their emotions and conversations. 

    It is realistic, emotional and energetic. Pov of all characters in the story is narrated adequately which is amazing.
    I have not enough words to describe her amazing stories .
    The story has many beautiful elements to praise. 
    Loved the chemistry between Deepshikha and Karan.
    Deepshikha is an lawyer who has her firm in the ground.
    Her father is her strength.
    And off course her kids are!!
    Karan is a successful businessman.
    This is really upset that he decides to fight with deepshikha .

    I really loved the involvement of their children in their parents life.

    Finally it's a good read and recommend to every one to read this book.

    Reviewed in India on April 4, 2021
    This novel is double plot story entwined later into a singular plot as Romance novel. Story about 2 individuals our protagonist Deepshikha after being in married for 17 years with 2 children and not so perfect married life but a promising career as a divorce lawyer, as husband Mahesh is taking things granted and destroyed his family life, but finally karma hit him hard and bite him at a crucial moment, that things change so fast he doesn't get time stabilize and author let the character cut loose, in second plot our hero Karan a rich, innocent , businessman married his childhood darling but suddenly things fall out and their marriage hit a road block but his daughter is the one who kept them intact but destiny have plans and it played as his marriage fall out and he sort out things in mature manner and collided the plot as Karan met Deepshikha as his lawyer ane how things between them started and author give full length and proper closure Dhwani character.

    Although its a straight forward theory with predictability all time high, author kept the plot intact. Author show us how divorce effects family , how children feeling and emotional understanding is important, Time and bond between relationships brings out the best solution and understanding between married couples is only possible via communication and find someone who cherish to be you every single day of life.
    Deepshikha father Gulshan played an anchor role as a father, Darsh played the role of serious and understanding son who is mature enough to know things around

    Author made things look go so easily and every puzzle block fit in story easily , a fast plot come to end and journey to convince child is written with a linency and intimacy between characters take most of second part which according to me make whole plot a flat plot as author was forced to make it a happy ending.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Great story on second chances!
    Reviewed in India on February 5, 2021
    A well written story about two unhappy people finding love. I liked Karan for his kind heartedness. Although I felt that he was too quick to forgive his ex wife for the lost years of his youth. But that's why he was the best character I guess, displaying great maturity in his thinking. Deepshika was strong and graceful and a perfect match for Karan. Great cover too! Anyone who loves second chance romances would love this one.
